2025 means unlimited progression on our mountain bikes!  Join us as we refine our bike jumping skills, improve body position, increase confidence and unlock more flow & joy on the trails!

Dan & Sage discuss their 2025 MTB & Podcast goals.  Move forward from fear, make 'shapes' in the air and be open to advice!  How much does beer/alcohol play in your mountain biking?  Why is jumping a smaller bike more technical than a larger mountain bike?  Practice being present on easy trails, so you're 'locked in' and present on the harder trails! 

MTB Gratitude of the Week

Dan: Godeson Presta Tire Gauge - Dan appreciates this little gadget for checking mountain bike tire PSI before each ride!  Tire PSI is so important in mountain biking and this simple gadget confirms that Dan's tires are exactly where he wants them before each ride. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GF2D326/

Sage: Ceres MTB Crew (Steve, Nic, Ed, and Mike) - Sage is incredibly grateful for the tour, advice, encouragement and stoke from this awesome crew of riders!  The trail building and the riding at Ceres has been a huge part of Sage's progression, jump journey and MTB joy!  Thank you fellas!

MTB Tip of the Week:

How to stay 'present' on the trail!  Before your ride, set an intention or a goal to work on.  Focus on one or two skills to practice and look for opportunities to practice as you ride.  Not only will this keep your mind in the moment, the practice will make you a better rider!
