The name of the day is "turns"!
Yesterday we made it out to one of our spots to build some turns as a reroute around a sketchy stepdown that just wasn't right for the spot. So instead of just one jump, we now have a solid 5 really sketchy turns in place. I'm still busted up but Mueller gave it a try and crashed 3 of the 4 attempts. Mission accomplished! Just what we were looking for, some really tough turns that you never know what'll happen when you try to ride it.

Local Trails Video
Mueller and I have been busting out butts all winter long building trails that we can push ourselves and train on. This particular location is quite unique. It is owned by a good friend of ours who was generous enough to let us run wild in the mountains behind his house near Blowing Rock, NC. When we decided that we were going to build trails there, we chose to each build our own trails by ourselves so that in the end we would have multiple runs that were very diverse so we could get elements of everything that we would encounter on a race course. So far, we've got 5 fully pinned runs that are nothing alike and have absolutely no pedaling at all! I shot this video about a month ago of Mueller on the trail that he built. Enjoy! Many more to come as we find time to shoot more videos...
Welcome!
Hi all, I'm new to the website stuff, so bare with me as I get this site rolling. I'll be updating this regularly as I find cool things to write about. Right now I'm hanging out with some broken bones, so not much riding has been happening in the past couple weeks, although I've been able to ride on the road, but thats no too fun. Massanutten is going down in two weeks, and I should be very close to 100% healed up by then and ready to rip one of my favorite race tracks around. See you all there!
