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. ​

National Trail, South Mountain AZ

Spring riding in Arizona is always a welcome get-away from the snow covered tundra that call home. The contrast is severe as I go from skiing pow, to smashing rocks and dodging cactus. Join myself, Chris Mandell and Jon Cancellier for a lap on National Trail. #followcamfriday, as per usual, jump everything. 
South Mountain offers some of the more abusive sections of trail anywhere. We were in town for a few days, testing product for SRAM.  Ever wonder why your RS suspension feels so good? Well, the guys that make the decisions absolutely shred on the bike. This translates to pure butter for the end user. What a time to be a mountain biker! 

And no, this is not my bike, it's a test rig. Not even sure what it is, so don't bother asking. The less I know, the better feedback I can provide as a tester. All I know is that we had fun, smashing about for a few days and the trail bike suspension platform will be better for it. Yay technology! 

And on a side note, how about those friendly hikers! South Mountain may have the friendliest trail users that I have ever encountered. It's just that easy people, high fives and hello's go a long way. Do you even get hikers stoked bro?
