New Bike Day!

There is no other day like "new bike day" Proper shake out in the Telluride alpine with Joey, Jon and Nate. #followcamfriday

I have built a bunch of new bikes lately. If I am being honest, I barely have the time to ride them all, between traveling, filming, racing, and typing these words. I am definitely not complaining, because after all, these are good problems to have. I built my 140 a couple of weeks ago and was excited, to say the least, to give her a proper rip in the alpine.

When Joey Schusler isn't busy traveling the world and making films about his addiction to adventure, he is bringing the streets to the alpine. Always a pleasure to ride with, Joey is special. It has been far too long since we had done a proper ride in the alpine together. Finding time is hard for both of us, but I am glad that we made this happen. Like getting the band back together. 

Our squad was made up of myself, Joey, and two Telluride locals, Jonathan Yaseen and Nate Smith. These guys were stoked to get a ride in the alpine after an epic winter that left meters of snow on their favorite trail. Our timing was perfect, and the "Weenie Wasatch" was just melting out. Jon owns a bar in town called "There". Where? Yeah, There. If you are looking for a proper cocktail, this is the place. Pisco Sour anyone? Definitely check it out if you are in Telluride

I had not been to Telluride since racing the last Mountain States Cup event there in 2012. What have I been doing with my life? Telluride is hard to get to, and that is perhaps what keeps this place so good. You have to try really hard to get here for a weekend if you live in the Front Range. Perfect for weeding out the crowds on the weekends. I bet the skiing is good too. 

Loose as. There is only one way if you are Joey Schusler. 

Views with the Bru's. Focus grasshopper, you actually can fall down the hill on this one. Long live rustic alpine trails. While this  is not a bike park, it should be noted however, that the Telluride Bike Park is building new trails and fixing up some of the classics. Nice work Telluride, keep it up!

Where will #followcamfriday turn up next? Only time will tell, but this trip will be hard to beat. Keep it locked right here for sweet biking action.
