Early this October, a crew of 30 freeriders, their dig teams, media, and fans descended on Virgin, Utah for the 19th edition, and 2nd annual women's competition, of Red Bull Rampage. 

We started this project over two years ago and have invested countless hours of design and testing time with dozens of different pedal body, binding, and cleat designs carefully tested and optimized both in the lab and on the trail.

This realization sparked our mission: to design and build the perfect clipless pedal family, one that would consistently outperform all others in the areas we identified as most crucial. Clipless pedals needed a reboot.

Once in Oregon, Kurt has primarily followed the Oregon Timber Trail. Using elevation gain as a metric for daily effort, he explains how climbing has taken priority over daily mileage, aiming for 7,000 to 8,000 feet of climbing per day.

Chequamegon is one of the races in the LTGP that is easily overlooked, but in my opinion has the most exciting finish line of the whole series. What seems on paper to be a very straight forward race never ends up being so simple, but who doesn't like a 20-30 person sprint to the finish line? 

Kurt Refsnider and Josh Weinberg sit down and chat about Kurt's first 12 days on the trail through the state of Washington.

We traveled to New Zealand with colleagues and friends to train, share unforgettable experiences, and take part in the NST competition. It was an incredible journey filled with learning, teamwork, and adventure — and to top it all off, I was honored to win the competition. Watch Road To Redemption Episode 1 now!

Kurt Refsnider just took off on his massive goal for 2025 - the brand new 5,000-mile-long Orogenesis Route, "The Longest MTB Trail In The World." He started rolling south from the Canadian border on Monday, August 4th, and if things go as planned, he will reach Cabo, Mexico, by mid-December.

Ultra Cyclist Christopher Hall is embarking on a journey to cycle the entire perimeter of Britain for men's mental health. Cyclists will join Chris from around the UK to connect and raise funds. Chris is starting his ride from Movember's London office on the 11th of July and will be covering roughly 250km a day, with the aim of completing the challenge in 30 days.

This isn’t just Steve’s story. It’s about every rider who’s wrestled with their mental health. Every first responder who’s been through more than they can say. Every person who’s leaned on their bike, their forest, or their crew just to make it through the week.
