Some of the HDB gang went to Taos this past weekend. We rode Rift Valley Sunday, and South Boundary on Sunday. It was cold on the Boundary, but the riding and the colors were terrific.

Thanks to Parmenides Orpinel for this video.

Show your New Mexico pride with a snazzy New Jersey. We had our message in two colors for both the ladies and the fellows.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! @iamspecialized_mtb #stumpjumper #iamspecialized

Thanks to Albuquerque the Magazine, and especially to everyone who voted for us for best bike shop 2019.

We received some of the first Specialized Levo E- road bikes. It's pretty slick, and fun to ride. Come on down and check it out.

Notice anything interesting attached to the spokes? Maybe trying to churn a small amount of butter?

Happy Balloon Fiesta from the gang at High Desert Bicycles.

Pivot Cycles and High Desert Bicycles are having a demo from 10am to 3pm at the Albertsons parking lot at the ne corner of Academy and Tramway. Bring your helmet, shoes and ID, and ride some awesome bikes.

The HDB group mtb ride really lucked out with the weather this evening. There was a little rain, which cleared leaving a giant rainbow and nice sunset.

HDB greetings from Switzerland. John is there for Scott Bicycles Dealer Event. Here's a few pics of: Lake Geneva, the new hi tech Scott HQ, the new Maxxis Dissector tire, Scott Genius', and the new Scott Gambler.

John and Johnny got to ride the Windsor trail with some buddies from the old days. It was pretty tough, so I didn't get any beautiful scenery shots. I thought you might like to guess what's going on in this first picture though. It's not something I see on most rides.
The choices are:
1. Trying to reach a beehive and its delicious honey.
2. Delirious with fatigue, these men reenact something they saw in Cirque de Soleil.
3. Some sort of alternative medical treatment is being rendered.
