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. ​

Wairoa Gorge | Nelson, New Zealand

After racing the TransNZ enduro the week before, we were off to Nelson for the NZ enduro. A stop at Wairoa was in order as the trails there are legendary.  Followcamfriday with an all time crew of The Free Radicals and Ted Morton. Trains in the woods with the boys. 
Wairoa Gorge is a private bike park. All of the trails are hand built and are some of the finest pieces of work I have ridden in the world..... I have ridden some trails in my life, and that is saying a lot. The park was funded by a billionaire who makes styrofoam cups and loves to ride. Apparently, legend has it that he has 7 parks built all over the world. Cool way to use some money if you ask me.

This place is shuttle access only. You can book a private shuttle is there is space and you have a large group.

Load em up. Proper bike carrying system.

From the top, you can see all the way to the ocean. What awaits below is about 3000ft of descending. 6 laps is a huge day, this place is demanding and technical.

The Free Radicals have been living in a van in New Zealand for a couple of months. Doing it right if you ask me. Hide your children, #vanlife is for real.
