Steppin Down



Well apparently its time to check your nutz. Some forward thinking and extremely nice craftsmanship have been employed for ATX's largest gap to date. Huge props go out to two of the most progressive riders/builders around. You know who you are. SUPASICK!!!

First Annual BALL in da FALL : MOAB






















Finding the perfect road trip crew is always a rough task. It seems the more people involved the more hectic the logistics become and the longer it takes to get shit done. Not with this crew. Seven deep at our largest point we were running like a fine watch. Riding seven out of nine days, all in attendance kept it real with no serious injuries and no mechanicals. A true accomplishment considering the caliber of riding we were doing. Cant wait til next year so we can BALL in da FALL even harder.
Starting off in Ruidoso, then to Moab, then to Fruita, we covered serious ground and shredded most every trail in between. Super plush accomidations in Moab, thanks to the Musgraves(thanks again guys), allowed us to push our limits on seven hour rides, knowing a hot tub at 104 would be waiting. Fruita was a welcome change from Moab but a little to XCish for our newly developed gnar rippin skills.Podcasts made the drive times seem short and many an introspective moment was had out on the trail.
We are truly blessed to have such an awesome crew.
