“It’s like riding rodeo”, blurts out Greg Herbold. “I can now grip with my left, and hold onto the bucking bronco while I sort out my controls with the right”. He breaks into a little demonstration of bull riding style while the assembled hacks chuckle.… More ›

As you all well know Bjørn Enga was the mastermind behind the Kranked series of mountain bike movies. After a while he moved onto other filmmaking pastures, like making yoga movies. He came back to mountain bike movies for a brief spell which included the… More ›
Okay, so many of you below the equator are probably happy to have the winter behind you for now but this is timeless quality programming whatever your flavour and whatever you like to do. Jordan Manley, the genius behind many of the best mountain bike… More ›
I love this video and I really didn’t expect to because it was described to me as, “A couple of Germans go hike-a-biking up a big mountain and then ride down again”. From previous experience of German videos they are generally pretty shitty. Mountain bike… More ›
Hungry for some Dirt Park action? I am after watching this nicely pieced together video by Jon Bokrantz for Queenstown Bike Taxis. From the QBT website, “Queenstown Bike Taxis offers a transport only service to help you and your bike get to the trails around… More ›
Vito Sport and BikeRidersUnited ‘How To’: Drops – More Mountain Bike Videos I’m going to probably make some enemies here, but this needs saying. Pro riders with no coaching experience, qualification, training or indeed knack for it, need to stop putting out stuff like this.… More ›
More Mountain Biking Videos I have come to admire how these FastFokus guys have put together a series of videos shot all over the world (including a Kelly McGarry in NZ episode), but this episode is the most exceptional example of the rear wheel sweeper.… More ›
Whilst shopping for Halloween candy at Canadian Tire yesterday I spotted some funny POS advertising for the new Pentax Q camera. This new, bonkers, spy style camera is absolutely tiny. In real life it really looks like a scale model of a real camera, or… More ›
So the highly anticipated second (or third) teaser to the soon to be released movie, From The Inside Out by Second Base (The CoastalCrew and Anthill) dropped today and it is a stonker. On the 27th October the world Premier will be taking place in… More ›
I’m stupid. I spend far too much time riding my bike to actually know what is going on. I acknowledge my lack of knowledge and so recently I have been trying to reacquaint myself with life outside of bicycles. The obvious starting point was to… More ›
I stumbled across this from The Albion’s Twitter. It’s a webzine that Vincent Perraud produced for a Vans team trip through Europe. Beautiful photos and even better layout; clean and lots of negative space. More ›
I came across this video on NSMB and I know almost nothing about it except that the filming and idea are a step above the usual 7D web edit. About the only information on the short film or its makers is on the Vimeo page… More ›
Callum is a young Englishman who has found himself on the good ship ‘fun times’ that is permanently moored in Whistler, BC these days. No one really knows what his role on this ship is but he tells me he has discovered an ability to… More ›
It might be BMXing but it is still bicycling. More so, this short video shares a lot with mountain biking. Particularly exploration, adventure, travel and sniffing out the lines of truth from the piles of rumour. Ruben Alcantara: The Lost Bowl. Fox Head. If you… More ›
Last week, much like most weeks, I was moonlighting for another media outlet during the Interbike wildness. After a week of chocolate teapots, perfect circles and not-so-new-releases, the one thing that stood out was helping the good Canucks at NSMB.com put this little video together.… More ›
Maybe this isn’t the best place to add to the current discord with Rocky Roads (the UCI’s wacky new title sponsor) but I saw this little nubbin and I think it’s too hilarious to not add. This is the ‘about‘ section of their blog, sorry,… More ›
Inside Outside is a weekly spotlight of inspiring stuff from inside the web but outside of mountain biking. Each week we ask someone from within mountain biking to give us their top five daily websites that aren’t just about mountain biking. This week we get… More ›
In a fit of procrastination today I came across this hilarious video of Swedish midsummer celebrations that was made by Ikea but then banned by dullards. I narrowly missed the midsummer celebrations in Sweden this year while covering the Scandinavian Photo Challenge for Spoke Magazine,… More ›
