NEMBA MBAS Ride Report - Foxboro 9/19

By -
So, we went to the NEMBA Foxboro MBAS ride on Sunday and all we came back with were some pictures... If we weren't having so much riding we might have stopped to take some out on the trail. The weather and trail conditions were great, and the loops that the SE MA NEMBA crew laid out were a perfect mix of the trails and terrain in the forest. We rode with a few folks from RI and hit all of the intermediate loop with some "hero" sections and a custom route back to the event HQ. The post ride BBQ was, as always, excellent and was the perfect afternoon snack. A whole bunch of people checked out the Rocky Mountain demo bikes and got a chance to try them out on the trail (the best way to demo a bike for sure). Overall it was an awesome event and we're looking forward to hitting the trail at the RI NEMBA Tour De' Big River next Sunday. Below are a few pictures from the event.

It is. It's time for the weather to finally change for the better. It's also far past time this shop had a new website! To that end you should see one shortly. Expect all the massive media infiltration and saturation that the LBS that took 7 years to make stickers is known for! (That there is some professional grade sarcasm just in case you are sarcasm deficient). You can expect the new site to pop up over the next week or so. This blog will still exist and allow us to focus on product reviews whilst waxing poetic about our shared pastime. The product reviews will be zero bullshit and honest. We're small enough and stable enough to not sell or support crap. It's always been that way. Having the blog separate from our "official" site makes the decision to publish our thoughts in an unfettered manner that much easier. On that note... Here are a few quick thoughts on a bike that made me stoked to get out again. It's been a long winter, and like many my en

So, we find ourselves in possession of a handful of really, really nice demo bikes that need to find a new home. The Rocky Mountain Altitude 29er and the Altitude 50s below made the rounds at the NEMBA MBAS rides this year. Each bike has under a dozen rides on it. All of them have been tuned up here at the shop and are ready to get under your ass out onto your local trails. Stop by the shop , or call, email or send smoke signals for more info. 18 and 19 inch 2010 Altitude 50 . The Altitude 50 is a great 5.5 inch travel enduro/all mountain bike. I've been riding one of these all season and I like it enough to keep it for next year as well. These retail for $3500, you can snag yourself one for $2000. I don't think I need to do the math for you, it's what is known as a "good deal". 18 inch 2010 Altitude 29er. Mike rode one of these all year and is holding onto his for next season if that tells you anything about this rig. These retail for $4000, you can pick this o
