Evoc Hip Pouch & Race Belt

by

We’ve made an effort to use and test most of the waist packs out there but our experience with Euro-brand Evoc is limited, so it was time to take a closer look. Earlier this year we had a chance to get our hands on the Hip Pouch and Race Belt from Evoc bags. The Hip […]

Bellingham, Washington: Whatcom Falls Pump Track

by

After a day of riding the Galbraith trails in Bellingham, we headed to the pumptrack at Whatcom Falls Park to check it out. Although the surface could have used some watering and was dry and a bit dusty, the Bellingham pumptrack is still a fun time. Built in the spring of 2017, the pump track is […]

WTB Verdict and Verdict Wet 2.5 Enduro Tires

by

WTB has been crushing it in the last few seasons, creating some impressive treads that blur the lines between DH and trail tires. The new Verdict is an aggressive, front specific tire that brings moto tires to mind more than a bicycle. Tall, meaty knobs are optimized for soft, slippery terrain with ample room for […]
