I can’t say enough about this photographer.
See for yourself.

I’ve been waiting on this day a long time. My first cover image in my favorite MTB mag!

Last October booked it down to Oaxaca Mexico to link up with . Among a land of immense beauty, vibrant art, and tight knit community we traveled around on bikes meeting the people who are greatly impacted by the mountain biking community. This was easily one of my favorite trips for work and in life. I’ll let you finish the rest in Freehub. Viva Mexico!

Thank you everyone at for doing all the great work you do, for the incredible hospitality and unreal trails, Alberto and for all the trail work and being stylish riders and Last but not least for believing in my work and asking me to join him on this trip.

How are you preparing for winter?

This is the ideal marmot body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Winter is coming! The tundra-dwelling yellow bellied-marmots have been preparing for hibernation for the last couple of months. Since marmots spend more than half their life hibernating, they have developed amazing adaptations to survive the winter. Some adaptations include:

✅ Building up healthy fat reserves to sustain them for up to 8 months.

✅ Slowing their heartrate from 200 beats a minute to 30, to conserve energy!

✅ Saving on utilities by cuddling up with the colony in one burrow to keep warm!

How do you prepare for winter?
