Due to another arm injury, I’m unable to ride for the foreseeable future. But I can still film the rest of the crew. We hit up Forte Trials Park again this week. I also tried something different this week: I filmed the ride in 4K. With the low light conditions Read more
Last week yet another injury began plaguing me, so I’m sidelined from riding indefinitely until I can get a diagnosis… and get healed up. It seems I have tendonitis in my left arm – that or some other acute soft tissue injury that causes loss of strength and extreme pain. Read more
For Thanksgiving week, we changed things up a little bit, traveling a bit farther than we normally do for our weekly group ride. We met up at the Rhode Island (moto) Trials Club in Exeter Rhode Island – the same location as the 2019 North American Trials Championship competition, as Read more
With winter fast approaching and diminishing daylight, the weekly rides are getting shorter. Wednesday afternoons have also been competing with work, family, and university schedules, so our recent gatherings have had fewer riders. Regardless, it’s always a good time. This week’s ride at Haley farm focused on several lines across Read more

Despite feeling terrible Monday morning, I really wanted to do some trials riding, and had been itching to go back to ride at Nichols Field. In addition to the rocks and other fun trials riding features, Nichols Field has baseball/soccer fields, a basketball court, hiking trails, a small playground, a Read more
A nor’easter ripped through the area Wednesday bringing strong winds and heavy rains (thankfully instead of snow) on Wednesday, so this week we rode on Thursday instead. We figured Colonel Ledyard Park would be a bit drier than the woods after all the rain. Looking back through my YouTube group Read more
Group Ride I started this week’s Wednesday group ride by snapping my bike chain literally 30 seconds after getting on the bike to warm up. As the start of my warmup, I rolled onto a small rock from which I planned to drop off on the rear wheel; however, the Read more
