MTB in Review

I met Eric Olsen when Tom Morgan, one of the owners of Ibis Cycles, emailed me out of the blue and said "hey, this kid Eric is racing and is a neat guy and we want to help him with equipment, but through your shop." Well, you can't really say no to that, and it proved to be a prudent decision on Tom's part. Listen to our conversation about mountain bike racing, his business start-up Jank Components, our upcoming Tour De EWS trip, and more.
Eric and Logan Patrick Nelson's community mountain bike film, "Atmospheric River Rats:"

Recipes cooked at dinner:
Balsamic Roast Beef in a Crock Pot

Homemade Pasta (I just rolled it up and cut it with a knife because I don't have a pasta machine.

Gavi Perl: New to Bellingham, New to Mountain Biking

Moving to a new place can be scary. Entering a new sport can be scarier, especially when everyone you're doing it with is already quite good at it.
I talk with my friend, roommate, and sister, Gavi P, about how she was introduced to mountain biking, how she came to live in Bellingham, and what it's like to be a woman in a male dominated sport.

Chelsea "SendsIt" Kimball: Self Made and Doing it For the Fun

Chelsea "Sends It" Kimball has been forging her own path (in her Astrovan!) for eleven years, and her passion and drive don't seem to be diminishing down in the slightest. I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with her at the 2022 Red Bull Formation, and learned how she got into mountain biking, what she thinks of her career as a professional athlete, and some potential goals for the future.
