Practice Makes Perfect

I spent the weekend co-guiding a women's mountain biking tour in Slatyfork, WV, with Trek/VW pro Sue Haywood. Along with three more awesome guides we introduced 18 energetic women to some of the toughest trails on the East Coast. In addition to mud, rocks and roots we enjoyed plenty of gourmet food, beer, wine and fun. Above Sue coaches Kerry Lucas of Bayville, NJ, through a tough switchback.

Just like Lewis said to Clark on their cross-country trip: "You can do it, buddy!" Our friend Ryan Curtiss is bicycling across the country, hauling his gear in a B.O.B. trailer. He left Norfolk, Va., on Aug. 8.
