The subject of land access & the rapid rise of #eMTB performance metrics deserved expert voices.

We gathered the views of the International Mountain Biking Association, #MTB guide & trail stewards & CyclingUK's former off-road advisor Kieran Foster.

Each raised concerns & all are currently involved in live access conversations. That should give major pause for thought for the entire #mountainbike industry.

Are we risking the future of #mountainbiking for quick sales?

I've been riding my #MTB and Enduro #Dirtbike way more than normal lately which has been a blast. I've significantly increased my intensity and level of difficulty which has been awesome, BUT unfortunately I think I need to take a bit of a break.
💪 My right elbow has been getting worse and worse with sharp pain, might be tennis elbow. I don't want to do the typical male crap by ignoring it and riding through the pain, best to rest and recovery.
At least I love running & hiking🚶‍♂️

The Radavist Podcast Episode 03: Wende Cragg and the Birth of Mountain Biking

The sport, now sophisticated by suspension, featherweight frame materials, and ever-changing standards, started with the radical desire to ride off road. And although Wende was there in the early days of pushing the potential of fat-tire bikes on the fire roads and singletrack surrounding Marin County, as a photographer, her presence in the sport's archives has been less visible.

Ist gibt Dinge, da denkt man, die brauche ich sicher nie. Doch letzten Sonntag musste ich mit dem #MTB bergab die hintere #Hydraulikbremse heftigst pumpen um noch ein Minimum an Bremsleistung zu haben. Spass machte die Abfahrt nicht.

Über Mittag habe ich die Bremse entlüftet und am Nachmittag funktionierte sie wieder tadellos.

Mit diesem Tool hätte ich das Problem blitzschnell zu Beginn der Abfahrt am Morgen oben auf dem Berg lösen können.
