How the SS thing started for me..
Posted On 01/28/2008 | 08:31 PM by SS_Belmont
About 8-9 years ago, I had LiteSpeed Pisgah Geared 26 MTB.  When the SS craze started getting some visibility online and in several publications, I was admit I was curious.  Right after I purchased my Seven Sola 26 geared MTB, I was like ok I need to try this.  I purchased a SPOT singulator and converted the bike to an SS.  I rode the SS conversation off and on and after 2 yrs I found myself mostly riding it so I purchased a Curtlo, one of the best deals around for a cus...

MTB History
Posted On 01/27/2008 | 09:44 PM by ositoking
There’s a lot of history and information floating around about the origins of mountain biking, some that’s recognized and some that depends on who has the best public relations firm. Mountain biking would have happened somewhere and it did.
Did it begin with the Buffalo Soldiers, a turn-of-the-century infantry who customized bicycles to carry gear over rough terrain? It was August 1896, the riders, black enlisted men and a white lieutenant, rode from Missoula, Montana, to Yellowstone an... Read More



Selling the Seven and Building the Willits
Posted On 01/25/2008 | 07:20 PM by SS_Belmont
Should I sell the Seven Well, I have been riding an SS for 5-6yrs (prior to 29er hype) and never rode my Seven Ti Sola anymore.  Yes, the Seven is a sweet ride, but after going SS, I found myself on the Sola on rare occasions.  I had a Curtlo 26 SS, a ChingDa custom ti 26 SS and this is what I rode mostly.  I would occasionally ask myself why I never rode the Seven and sometimes this would force me to take it out.      

Introduced to the 29er S... Read More

The quest for the next big ride!
I was watching a video posted here on the site last night. As I watched it, I though...

Hell! I want to ride that!

So I plan to do some research on the trail that was featured in the video. But first, I've had my eye on a trail down in Georgia for a few months now. This trail is called "Bull Mountain" and sounds interesting! There's a totla of 1780 ft of elevation in 14 miles. So there's definitely some climbing to be had. Which I dig, so that's... Read More



The Trails
Posted On 01/14/2008 | 08:52 PM by Mickey
Me and the guys went to Dark Mountain this past weekend.
Damn it was cold and Damp. But regardless I was gald I was there and I had a good time, even though I was hacking up a lung full of flem, my toes where frozen and I wrecked twice from the slick conditions.

The slick conditions made for a real interesting ride and as twisty as Dark Mnt. is... slick is not a great mix. I often found myself drifting from one side of the trail to the other, nearly sliding right off the trail. It's no... Read More
