Post Content
In this week’s Global Mountain Bike Show, Neil, Steve, and Adam dive into the news of two trail builders in Vermont who were fined $35,000 for unauthorized trail building. We discuss the complex legalities and environmental impacts of building secret trails versus official, manufactured trail centers across the US and UK. Plus, the guys look back at this year’s Megavalanche carnage and share some of their most embarrassing personal crash stories!
