Trail Wanderlust
I got an afternoon ride in the Laguna Mountains area on Wednesday and went back on Friday to some more exploring. We rode some of the classic routes as well as some stuff that gets basically no action at all. I’m gonna have to do some further research to see if some of the stuff is … Continue reading “Snooping around in the Laguna Mountains”
Back in the summer of 2008, while on a business trip to Philadelphia, JD showed me around one of the local riding spots. It was good stuff so I was glad to return the favor when my schedule and JD’s line up this past week. One cool thing about air travel in the westward direction … Continue reading “A Coast-to-Coast Big Laguna Ride”
I am a frequent flyer to the Mount Laguna Area. Here is a clip of one of my recent runs down that trail.
I have been talking about doing Garnet Peak with a couple of my buds off and on for years. The themes of the conversations have usually included phrases like ” Its worth checking out”, “Oh yeah it chunky” and “You will probably like it”. So while camping in the Lagunas over the July 4th weekend, … Continue reading “Garnet Peak”
How time flys! MountainBikeBill.com turns 20 today. When this thing started it were no smartphones, high speed data, GoPros and YouTube. Even a hand-held mapping GPS was a tough thing to come by in those days. Thank you all for the motivation to share my love for the outdoors and mountain biking over the last … Continue reading “Turning 20!”

What an awesome day it was with the exception of a total of 345 milliseconds. I clocked myself pretty good on Stairway to Hell and banged … Continue reading “Noble Canyon Fun (Kinda)”
So I have been behind the power curve on making reservations ahead of time for excursions. I had to go the route of finding a first come first serve site for this outing. I was looking to hit up our favorite spot, the Laguna Meadow Campground, but it is currently closed for maintenance. Burnt Rancheria … Continue reading “Kitchen Creek – Fred Canyon Area”
I have been working on remastering some of my older videos to bring them up to new standards. My videos range from ancient lip-stick camera and 8mm camcorders to GoPros. All of various eras of equipment will have their own challenges to remastering and some of them I’m just not going to make the … Continue reading “Cuyamaca – BLT Video Remastered”
MTB Life has mostly been about getting out on the local goods as of late. Recently I back out in the Laguna Mountains. We spent sometime playing on a few few rocks around the meadow. Later in the ride, while trying a tight little squeeze I managed to crunch up my derailleur a … Continue reading “BLT, Daley & Gears”
Saturday Nichol and I went up to Big Laguna Meadow to get in some biking and a night of camping. It was quite a pretty day with some fall colors up in the trees and exceptionally nice temps. After setting up camp we did a cruise around meadow. We were up bright and early the next morning … Continue reading “BLT, Redtail Roost and Noble Canyon”
