Exploring Glorieta Trails New Mexico 

There are some sales for the holiday on the Foes racing Mutz fatty and sales on some of the other fat bikes out there this weekend. Add one to the quiver. If you loving riding you’ll enjoy a nice fatty. Life is short.

Glad you enjoyed it

There is some big stuff up there. Lots of flow too. Fun stuff. I’d like to see someone slay those big boosters up there.

We are glad you enjoyed coming along for the virtual ride with us. We hope it inspires you and others to go enjoy the outdoors.

It can be fast. And there are some big hits out there for the brave.

It’s south along the freeway. There are actually 2 tunnels you’ll go through. If you look at the #trailforks app you can see the Route 66 trail mapped out on there now. They are currently working on cutting another trail off that Route 66 trail up at the northern end. Looks like it’s going to be pretty nice once they get it done. Trail crew has and is doing a great job on the system up there.

@@NewMexicoOutside Fantastic, thanks for sharing.

Still ride the Icans. Just running simple rigid Ti Big Iron for awhile while I replace some bearings and bushings in the full Squish linkages.

Yes, much more versatile. Why fat bikes? With a fat bike you are not limited on the tire width. You can run up to 5 inch wide tires. And any size wheel below that if you wanted ~ 27.5+, 29+, 26, etc. Fat bikes are like monster trucks, the Jeep’s of the bike world. They can go anywhere and are unlimited compared to our skinny tire bikes. You can ride through all four seasons and all surface types on the same bike. With minimal trail impact. Snow, sand dunes, arroyos, cobblestone river beds, slick rock, hard pack, you name it. And they help build/roll in the trail. So you’re actually doing trail maintenance as you ride. Smoothing out all those skinny tire mud ruts is an extra bonus for your local singletrack. With modern materials they can be built lightweight and they climb like a goat. Our goal is to inspire more people getting outside and encouraging adding a fat bike to the quiver. Go explore more places and have less of an impact while riding in sandy softer soils. Broaden your horizons with a nice fat bike. Explore the many miles of sandy arroyos and dunes in the southwest without pizza cutting through the desert crust (“pizza cutting” increases erosion).

Regular mtb be would be fine in Glorieta.

Right on. Glad you enjoyed the scenery. That’s the great part about RU-vid. You can mute it and put on your own favorite tunes and jam out with us. 👍

I really appreciate the music. From your videos I discovered some music by bands that recorded years ago M83 and Goldfrappe that I didn't even know existed - and I ended purchasing their recordings. Keep it up.
