Rummaging through the parts bin and realizing you’re a headset and frame away from a complete bike… #n+1 #idontneedit #mtb #mountainbike

I think I’m really starting to dig this trail digging thing. It was especially satisfying that I got to be the first person to ride the trail that we had just dug. Thank you #NSNEMBA! #trailbuilding #mtb #mountainbike

Is #trailbuildsunday a thing? Here’s 3 features we worked on today: 2 berm updates and what we called Dean’s Drop. Named for the builder who said “wouldn’t it be cool if…” We collectively said “Hell yes” and immediately got to work. #mtb #mountainbike #trailwork #trailbuilding

If you only change one part, is it still the same bike? Here’s ~95% of the parts earlier this week

New frame day! After riding hardtails exclusively since the mid 90s I finally Transitioned (get it?) to a full suspension #mtb and I don’t regret it. #mountainbike #bikesky #

For any cycling parents out there I can’t recommend a Kids Ride Shotgun-style seat enough. The bonding time in the saddle is unlike anything else and I am genuinely sad that my little one will probably be too big to ride like this next year. #mtb #mountainbike #kidsrideshotgun

Almost four hours at the pump track and she still didn’t want to leave. What’s it take to wear out a 3.5 year old? Five hours? I don’t know if I would survive that. #pumptrack #mtb #mountainbiking

Highland Mtn had some hero dirt yesterday, sunny days after rain are awesome. I love the looks I get when I roll off the lift on a hardtail, fortunately nobody saw me soft huck over two berms. #mountainbike #mtb #bikepark #chromag

Fantastic daddy-daughter day at the pump track today. Stoked that she graduated from the beginner track to the “big” track, she’s really getting the hang of it. Mixed emotions about having to literally carry her off the track kicking and screaming. #pumptrack #mtb #mountainbiking

I consider today to be my first real ride of the season and it was great. I’ll be sore af tomorrow but it was worth it. First time riding with the TrashGearCo mudguard, as advertised it blocks mud and is made of trash; 10/10 #mtb #mountainbiking #hardtail #trashgearco #moxie.bike #bikesky

First ride of 2025, still lots of ice out on the trails here in the northeast. I’m probably going to stay off of them for a while unless I grab a fat bike with studded tires.

Taking a break from ::gestures at everything:: to do a little CAD project. Here’s a couple takes on a clip for a @stinnerframeworks.bsky.social X MADE photo stick clip, one inline and one radial. I suspect I’ll like using the inline one since it would slip nicely in the map pocket of my frame bag.
