Wide World of Shred (Boards, Bikes, and NMB)

In the first installment of the new catch-all post, Wide World of Shred (henceforth WWS), I'll be covering a few topics.

Firstly, I looked at the cams for Jackson Hole. (A storm has since rolled in and obscured the cams) If you told me it was June in Wyoming, I wouldn't believe you. There is no point for that mountain to be closed. I think you could still ride the upper half without even hitting grass.

Second, this may be one of the gnarliest places I've ever seen, and the first time I've ever contemplated driving to Cleveland. Perhaps afterwords a pit stop at that super duper amusement park over there too. Check it out, Ray's Mountain Bike Park. It is supposedly the first indoor MTB park, specifically designed. As the place has taken off and just gotten more and more popular they have continued to expand and allow BMX in there too. Watch some of the videos, the place is pretty mind blowing. Now, they have actually shutdown till Fall for some sort of massive expansion. Oh yea, they've also added a specific room for INDOOR DIRT TRAILS. Nutso. The map itself of the place is insane, 103,000 sq ft of riding.



Thirdly, None More Blacker is soon to be upon us. End of June premiere that will certainly have a None More Blacker dress code as well. Be there. Team riders get a free limited edition copy. All others can pay a nominal fee to take home their very own copy of Boloney Moguls' first full-length production.
