Whenever I have to explain what cyclocross to people that don’t know what it is, I usually have a hard time. It’s the steeplechase of cycling, then you get the “what is steeplechase?” question.

Danny is at it again this time aboard a mountain bike and a Santa Cruz Nomad at that! Check out this video as he returns to his home of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. The film captures Danny riding the Cuillin Ridge which looks like it’s probably only accessed by foot. I wonder if Danny…

This once bustling tourist town could take on nearly 5,000 visitors a day, but in 1985…

Matt squashes any skepticism if 29ers have trouble cornering. So get out there and ride this weekend and get low! (photo and video courtesy: Specialized Bicycles)
