A day before I did one of my rides in Bozeman, I went through my camelbak to check all my spare parts. I have made it a habit to carry 2 of everything I might need to at least get me off the trail if anything happens to my bike.

With a bit of research I found that Owenhouse Bicycling & Fitness in Bozeman was my best bet. Straight from my ride the next day … [Read more...]

Beartooth Mtb guides

On my arrival in Montana I purchased myself  the  "Montana Singletrack" the mountain bikers guide to Montana, that features 50 of Montana's greatest rides.

I had not heard of Beartooth … [Read more...]

Energetic Diabetic

I am really happy I found this product, and would like to share it with the MTB community. I myself am lucky, I do not have think twice about what I take with me to eat or drink when I shred  the trails, and yes, like most riders I take high energy drinks and Energy bars... and still, after  a good few hours I feel drained.. so I can't even imagine how difficult it must be for a diabetic. How many of you know someone with Diabetes?.. Here's my story: When I started riding at the age of 16 … [Read more...]
