Finding Peace on the Trail

I’m so excited to finally share this project with you. I actually filmed it last year, but I have a bad habit of holding back on posting things that don’t feel “perfect.” This one sat unfinished because I thought it needed a better ending. So I added a little bumper at the end to talk about why I made it and the vision behind it.

When I first got into mountain biking, I had some big aspirations. But reality hit me pretty quickly and pretty hard: I’m an older average rider with responsibilities, and I definitely cannot afford a broken collarbone. Racing was never really in the cards for me, though I always wanted to race and love watching.

Around that same time, the idea for this website started to take shape, and eventually I put myself out there as a Filthy Casual mountain biker set on sharing my knowledge with those just starting out. And of course as someone who knows he’s not going to be a pro rider, but just a dude that is out here purely for the love of two wheels.

I hope you enjoy this short video project I made with that spirit in mind.

Forever two wheels!
