Whiskeytown Chimney

Chris (aka: Mountaineese Chris) invited me up to ride some trails up in Whiskeytown. I've heard about riding up there for years but never made the trip before. This day was full of elevation and an awesome waterfall! Garmin or Strava JPG or PDF Nothing to see here

Norco Demo Day

Norco reached out to me to see if I wanted to come lead a ride with them in Rockville. I was excited to get out there and give one of the long travel 29ers a ride. I was super stoked to get a chance to ride the 2018 Norco Range 29er. They showed up with plenty of bikes to go around and a bunch of the B1KER chipmunks showed up for a group ride. Good times were had and cold beers were drank! Garmin or Strava JPG or PDF Norco Bikes

Kali Protectives

I had the opportunity to take a tour of the Kali Headquarters and speak with the head of marketing as well as the founder of the company. Wow, what an awesome experience. I'll be honest I didn't know them or their products before I walked in the door but by the time I walked out I was super stoked about who they are, what they stand for, and am really excited to be trying out some of their products. They also have extended a 15% discount to anyone who watches my channel and an even better one to the Patrons! If you want 15% off use this link: kaliB1KER15 or just go to the site and enter the coupon code kaliB1KER15.  If you'd like to save even more money at Kali as well as some other vendors I've worked out some deals with head over to the B1KER Patreon.  The goal there is to build enough discounts that being a Patron will pay for itself.  All membership levels have access to the coupons.  Nothing to see here Nothing to see here Kali 15% OffB1KER Patreon

Demo’s Flow

This was my very first time riding in Demonstration Forrest (Demo) in Santa Cruz California. It was everything I thought it was going to be. I will say thanks to Richard at Stikrd I was talked into driving up the first climb so we didn't have to pedal it and I'm glad we did that! It was still a pretty damn healthy day of climbing and riding but that made things a little better. Check out the difference between the Flow and the Braille trail. There are definitely two religions of followers between the two trails. For right now, I'll say they were both awesome and I can't wait to go back.

Stikrd Shuttles

In all of the years I've been riding in Auburn, believe it or not, I've actually never shuttled Culvert and Confluence.  Richard from Stikrd came up to my house for the weekend and we set out to get some shuttles in.  Richard reached out to his buddies on the Bikes, Buds, and Brews Facebook group and next thing you know we had a party.  Between all of those guys and me consistently running into subscribers...scratch that, chipmunks from the channel, we ended up having a hell of a group.  Everything didn't quite go as planned, but hey, it's mountain biking and there will be blood!

Bronson’s Back

After being gone for almost a month I finally got the Bronson back. I had some brand new rubber complements of the guys over at Worldwide Cyclery and a brand new WTB seat. At first glance the new 2.5 DHF front tire and rear 2.4 High Roller 2 looked small compared to the 2.35 eThirteen's that were on there. In the spirit of new things I tried some different camera settings that made my video really dark. #Fail I almost scraped the video but I figured you guys would rather see the content than me just toss it because I'm not stoked about the quality.

Nevada City Hoot

I've heard about the trails in Nevada City for a while.  I've even watched videos on them as well as planned a trip in the past that got canceled.  However the stars didn't align until Orbie from the MTB Flowrider channel hit me up and asked if I wanted to go ride with him.  Though none of us were great planners, we somehow ended up making a fun day out of this.  Unfortunately the trails were a little more muddy than what would allow for a really fun time.  However, the plus side is I know what I'm getting into when I go back!!!

Giant Trance 3 Review

Since the Bronson was still in the shop I decided it was a good time to grab another demo bike.  I went up to Folsom Bike in Folsom, Ca (imagine that) and was pleasantly greeted by the owners and the staff.  They rented me the 2018 Giant Trance 3 for the day at a low cost of $55.  That's a steal compared to most demo's start at $100.

Yeti SB5 vs. Santa Cruz Bronson

This was a fun day with a bunch of YouTubers on a brand new 2018 Yeti SB5!!! It was the ultimate test of whether or not I should have bought the Yeti a year ago instead of the Santa Cruz Bronson. Nothing to see here JPG or PDF Yeti SB5 Santa Cruz Bronson Oury Lock-On Grips
