2020 – The Year that Was
A look back at one of the most difficult years any of us have had to endure. What made it special and what made it great?
Rock the Hartman
We were expecting snow, so we left Crested Butte and rode a park near Gunnison, Colorado. Hartman Rocks was fun and challenging in all the right ways!
Crossing Agate Creek
While touring on my 2020 road trip, I stopped in Crested Butte, Colorado and rode Monarch Crest and Agate Creek.
Chasing Buttes – The 804
My latest stop on the 2020 road trip was with Chasing Epic tours in Crested Butte, Colorado. We rode the 403 and the 401 trails – together they make up “The 804”.
Monarchist
I was headed to Bentonville, Arkansas when a storm re-routed me to Salida, Colorado. I adjusted the schedule and made the drive.
Butte-Full
To start out my Durango mountain bike excursion, I chose to re-ride the only trail I was already familiar with; Twin Buttes.
Trestle – Winter Park, CO
In September of 2018, I took a 3-week road trip around the western states with my camera and my mountain bike. While on that trip, I randomly drove through the Rocky Mountains and, like many before me, fell in love with Colorado. On the advice of a friend, and while looking for a place to ride for the day, I stopped in Winter Park to ride my first ever bike park.

A Day at Winter Park, CO
A Day in Winter Park, CO I was deep into the second week of my 2018 road trip when I was driving into Denver. It was the third major city on my trip (after San Diego and Tucson) and I was looking forward to an unplanned 4 days of great Read more…
Twin Buttes Trail, Durango, CO
While on my 2018 road trip through the western states, I stopped in Durango, Colorado. I had never been there but I knew of it from my younger days of hero worship of Ned Overend. Ned was a prominent pro rider in the 80’s and chose to make Durango his home.
