Is blogging still a thing?

So there I was, drinking beer and looking at the internet. What ever happened to my blog..... I don't think people even realize that I race mountain bikes for a living. I think people know me as that guy who posts weekly POV videos on YouTube about riding on the edge of some scary cliff in the desert. I am a Vlogger now, do I really need a blog? Well, after a two-year hiatus, I just turned it back on because it made me smile. Let me know what you guys think. Times were simpler then. More projects, more problems. Wouldn't trade it for anything. ​

#followcamfriday bringing you a course preview from stop 3 of The Revolution Enduro series. Local legend Chris Boice laying waste to berms for your viewing pleasure. 
Revolution Enduro info HERE

Come on out on July 21-22 for 6 stages of bike park smash at Angel Fire. Lifts will be ridden. Trails will be conquered. Berms will be destroyed. Beer will be drank. There are still a few spots left, so come on out and heckle us!!

Chasing Chris Boice around on his home trails is a daunting task. I am still hacking up dust from trying to ride his wheel for a day of laps. Here is the game- Find the fastest dude, the dustiest tracks, and try to ride as close to the rear wheel as possible. Rule 3- try not to die. Basically, like riding with a pair of pants on your head.

Hide you berms fam, Chris is coming in hot. A low-snow year has left the trails good and dry. Hold it wide and let it slide. #doyouevendriftbro. Do you even put holes in the ground?

If you find yourself dumping shoes after a berm session, you are definitely doing it right. I call this a win. Some would say "pitted", but I'll save that term for the surfers. Baby powder works to keep your feet dry. So does dirt.... Cheaper too...
Picture
If you want to be featured in a #FollowCamFriday episode, you have to follow the first rule of #FCF. Pull Up.... Chris has this maneuver on lock. Everything is a jump. Always. Never Not. 
​Remember kids, you can't flat if you are not touching the ground. Solid advice.

Nice to see that the old slalom track is still in existence at Angel Fire. The bike park has done a ton of amazing trail work over the last few years, and it is great to see some of the original character of the place still remains. The builders have done a wonderful  job of maintaining the roughness and challenge while building in some flow and fun. God work boys!

Human slalom. When the brus are hiking the berm to get the shot and Chris comes through hot. Hope we didn't mess up your photo boys... Pardon us as we drift on by.

What do you do after smashing laps all day at the bike park? You smash tacos. Duh. The Guadalajara Grill in Taos is my favorite. What's yours? This is a hotly debated topic and great source of pride among New Mexicans..... As long as there are jalapeños, I am generally pretty satisfied. Sting ring on point.
