Dan tells his hilarious story about confusing an entire bike park and finally, the guys also dish out some great tips for jumping on your mountain bike.

Dan has so much gratitude to have such a loving, beautiful and supportive partner in this wonderful life.

Sage: Ibis Mojo 3! Sage is so stoked to have his bike back (repaired!) and now that he's clearing some big jumps on his Ibis Mojo 3, he knows with more certainty than ever that he is 100% unlimited on this bike! Sage has so much gratitude for all the miles of progression he has shared with his Ibis Mojo 3 and he's ready for many more miles of smiles!

MTB Tip of the Week

How to ride wood when it's wet! When the trail is wet, do your best to hit any wooden features, bridges or roots straight on. Aim straight ahead to avoid needing to turn or brake on the wet wood. Hit the wood straight on from the right angle. Commit! You got this!
