    "Is it all the same ?" Taj's etnies blog, 2006

    I think the "elitist" portion of any riding type is a very small portion of the overall riding population. Over the years I have ridden road, xc, DH, bmx, "freeride", you name it. Over many of those years I also worked in shops, didn't have a car, and pretty much relied on my bike as a way of...

    Weekend Park and Dirt Jump pictures

    Are those the HS trails in Chapel Hill? I remember riding those when I lived there - but they look like more/bigger trails have been built since then. I loved the plywood wallride that use to be there!

    A question about Mr. Bender

    The "Is Bender relevant" arguement is as old as it is stupid. To use someone's opinion on the matter as a litmus test for whether they are a real rider is even dumber. By comparing Bender to Tomac, Sam Hill, Gary Fisher, and Missy Giove you raised the level of stupidity into the stratosphere...

    DMR Motos? 2.2 or 2.4?

    Anyone run DMR Moto RTs? Do they run big? How do they compare to Maxxis Holy Rollers in the same sizes? I've never actually seen them on a bike but the tread pattern looks solid so I'm thinking of getting a pair for street/DJ with only occassional indoor park riding. I run 2.2s now and I'm...
