SPRING RACING IS HERE! This is my bike set up for the @grasshopperadventureseries Huffmaster race (that I’m not able to do this year 🥲) I still had a blast making the fastest possible setup for the day. What did I forget? Any questions?

Shoes: Custom @lakecycling_na MX-333s

Honestly, the @hunt.road 40CGR wheel set is my most used and most versatile set of hoops in my quiver. All the stuff on the tin is true, it’s light, stiff, aero, durable, all those buzzwords. Of all the wheels, it’s latest the longest under all of the training and racing I’ve done. If you could have one wheelset to do it all, this is it, honestly.

This is a love letter. To bikes, to San Francisco, to dedication and pursuit of big goals. AND TO PLAY! This was filmed within 3 square miles of city, on roads and trails I ride every day. In the midst of a busy life, the little things get lost and this project was a great reminder that at the end of the day, swinging a leg over the bike is the first step to an amazing world. 

I hope you like watching this as much as we loved making it. Do you want to see more? Let me know in the comments so I can get the band back together. Huge thank you to @aaron_sapaen for the insane shots and to @richcastillo_ for the direction. I’m forever grateful to the folks supplying the amazing gear and to the collective for supporting this “old guys” dreams. 

Off to the @trekuscxseries series and racing some skinny tires in circles. All my best <3

I’m a sucker for hub sounds and every one of the @hunt.road wheels has a personality. From the polite engagement of the 40 Limitless UD Gravel Races to the raw growl of the 40 CGRs, each bike sings its own tune. What’s your favorite? Do you like loud hubs, or quiet composed hubs? #thechaseison

When I moved to SF, people said, “you’re gonna love how much climbing there is”. To an extent, they were right. But it’s because all that climbing leads to some of the best descending I’ve ever had. @hrzntl_dropout and I got a rare clean run at the Pan Toll to Stinson drop and it was SO sick. SOUND ON FOR VIBES. Let me know in the comments id you want to see the full run on YouTube

That post rain, high definition, summer is coming, light jacket, good legs and 3h pre work ride feeling 😮‍💨. It’s great when it’s easy. More of this please.

While you’ve been whining about new wheel sizes in the comments, Ben’s been having fun winning races. Be Ben.

My time as a @mosaiccycles rider has come to an end. As a team, we have done some pretty amazing things on these bikes. For two years in a row, we were the top ranked metal bike in the world with 10 UCI Cyclocross World Cups, 2 Lead Lap finishes, top 10 at Nationals and Pan Ams, 2x 2nd place Overalls in Grasshopper Adventure Series, and many more. A top these fast metal steeds, I banked 20,000 miles of riding in 10 countries. I want to thank Mosaic from the bottom of my heart for their belief in me and what we could accomplish. Forever a fan and friend. 🫶 📸/🎥: @markcurrie12 , @gratstagram , @danny.awang

Ripped some turns this weekend at the local crit. Made the winning break, confirming it’s not time for masters yet. Didnt win, didn’t die. Bikes are so rad. The end. @liam.oce on the snaps

This. Send it to the homies. It truly doesn’t get better than friends ripping laps in the park. Massive shouts to @obf415cc , @swellbicycles and all your weirdos for keeping cross alive. 🫶
