posted Jun 17, 2013 by MarcS
Given the large amount of money you need to plop down to buy a good mountain bike, the selection of a shop to take it to when it needs a little TLC is almost as important as choosing a pediatrician for your first-born child. Of course,...

Review: Pearl Izumi X-ALP Impact Shoe
posted Jun 16, 2013 by maddslacker
When I received the Pearl Izumi X-Alp Impact shoes for review I didn't research them at all--I just slapped some cleats on them and started riding. I kind of assumed that they were a budget or entry-level model, and my initial impressions were formed from that...

jolson28 reviewed Turnbull Canyon
Super fun place to ride! Went up there for the first time today and loved it. Theres a good amount of hikers to watch out for, but other than that this place has everything! I started up the fire road at the trailhead, then went past the tower at the top and took rattlesnake down... Pretty fun switchback, lots of rocks and ruts but theres some good lines. After rattlesnake, i met back up with another fire road, pedaled back up to the tower and came down the otherside on a sick single track that spit me out on Friends Ave. Good amount of climbing but the downhill is worth it! I cant wait to come back and check out all of the other trails.

Good Network of Trails. Classic NE Trails with lots of Rocks, Roots, and mud/slick spots making for technical singletrack....Not your "fast & flowing" type of riding except for maybe Blue trail along the river. Decent amount of Elevation allowing for some challenging climbs/descents. Trails are well marked with "you are here" trails maps throughout. Fun network that can be linked with other trails in the area (Cross Falmouth Trail, Hadlock Trails, & more).

I bought a used but good complete 3x10 drivetrain on eBay for $200. You might be able to find something similar if you need more than one component. Just something to consider.

I actually do combine this ride with a ride on the CCT. You can also go down onto the little falls trail and ride some of the singletrack off that trail.
