What We're watching this week (It's not even a little bit MTB)

So these videos are not strictly MTB (not even a little bit) but we cannot stop watching them. Both incredibly inspiring edits for different reasons.

Hillside Dirtjam

Firstly we have a re-cap of Cam White's Hillside Dirtjam. Cam is someone we have been fans of for quite some time. One of the huge contingent of BMX riders who constantly push and break the boundaries of what is possible. Thinking about it, we can't think of a BMX rider who doesn't do that. All you have to do though, is watch the previous highlight reels of this contest to see how rapid progression is in BMX riding. We will never get bored of watching people go this huge and nailing big tricks. Enjoy. 

Skateboarding Rules

You all seemed to really enjoy my piece on how I feel about the suggestions of skateboarding in the Olympics so it probably comes as no surprise that I am a huge fan of the sport. It's paved the way for extreme sports entering the mainstream which has made everything more accessible to people, yet it still maintains it's loveable rogue attitude. This video showcases the hard work, dedication, big balls, blood and sweat that go into achieving goal in extreme sports. It doesn't have to be a medal being chased, a race being won or even a shot being made. It all comes down to personal achievement. Whatever your level, I hope this video inspires you as much as it did me to get out on the bike and push personal boundaries.

Bad Smells...

We're Back!!!!!!
We've neglected All Things MTB for a while, because we're all heavily involved in other projects which are taking up A LOT of our time. You shouldn't be mad though, because it's mainly to do with charity work and you can't be mad at us for charity work.

Anyways...we are back. We didn't *really* go away, just like that bad smell clinging on to your knee pads, even when you wash them, it doesn't actually go away. Not properly.

2015 and beyond...?
So, what can you expect from us in 2015...? Good question. More of the same, all things that go along with the MTB lifestyle, we'll bring you our own riding experiences, reviews of events we are interested in reviewing and anything else we generally feel like writing about.

Stay tuned for our Hard(tail) Lovin' article dropping at the end of the week(ish).
