With a stormy week, Ray, Keegan, and I decided to cruise out to Morgan Hill to check out our buddy JR's new spot. We didn't know what to expect, but were blown away when we pulled up! There are a few sweet lines, a mulch jump, and a foam pit! It was good times all round, putting some lines together on the main set and having a big session on the mulch! Everyone ended up landing something new, and we ended the day with some awesome bbq at Trail Dust.
Enjoy!
I got my short-travel all built up, and what better way to break it in than some trail rips with the homies! Keegan, Luke, and I got out for a few days, getting stoked on the wet dirt. We decided to mix it up a bit with some trails that we hadn't ridden in years, along with some of our favorites.
Enjoy!
Just a cool recap of Straitline’s Andi Wittmann shredding the course with Sorge in the Alps.
Someone nagged me for that ages ago.. to let it be known what the athletes ride from us: Andi rocks our Silent Guide for all the keeners out there.
I truly was stoked when Tippie asked to run our DeFacto pedals, the man is a legend in biking. He earned more respect from me when we were in Monterey California a few years back and he admitted all of his party sins and why he vanished.
But Now he’s back full force like he never even left.
Watch this honest interview hosted by our very own Ryan Berrecloth, cool to see two of your riders making shit happen on their own.

With the new Nuke Proof built up, the Fogelsodes are back! OnlyMTB has their "First Try Friday" series, where you have to send a banger on your first run of the day. It looked like a good time, so Ray and I gave it a go at the good 'ol step-up. Check it out, along with some other footage from throughout the week!
Enjoy!
