Commuter

Back view.


Built using a spare frame and fork that was hanging around the shop, we decided to spec it out with shimano alfine internal geared hubs and a bitchin' supernova led light powered by a generator front hub (also notice the fancy internal cable routing on the light). We also had some spare parts laying around to dress it out, cork grips, charger perf leather saddle, shimano saint cranks with protective ring plate, some fancy chain and cork grips. Own this one of a kind creation........$1600

Pro XCT


Lea crushing the climb as a couple female pro's cheer on...how cool is this for an eight year old ?



me lending a hand with Lea and twin sister maddie ripping it up.

certainly not pro's, but super excited that my offspring enjoy cycling, i mean who smiles during a bike race....yep, my kiddos. These photos of my kids riding bikes in the dirt is about as good as it gets for this particular bicycling addict. Photos courtesy of Mr Bill Martin.....thanks for capturing these moments for me Bill, i appreciate the copies, and give'em 10 years....who knows.

Fred Burr trail



Had a great afterwork ride with my 10 yr old son Caelen and took him up to Fred Burr for his first visit. A 3 mile route (6 miles total, out and back) up to the lake, which basically is the remnants of an old road put in to build the reservoir..... agriculture was and always has been important here in the Bitterroot Valley and you can find man made reservoirs at the top of many drainages. The road basically climbs three miles, is rough in places, and follows a well flowing creek. This trail is a popular bitterroot trail and you will see other trail users...hikers, atv, and an abundance of horses...what's parked at the trail head will tip a person off as to who they might encounter. Me, i ran into friends, Jean and then Steve a little while after.


the hucks are looking good too

Turner Sultan / 29er


here's Ed's shiney new Turner Sultan with 2012 Shimano XT ( 3 X 10, black edition ). The 31# bike is rock solid....and should be about the perfect trail machine to fit Ed's 6'2" 245# frame. Have a great time on the new bike !
