Johnny loves being outdoors and pushing the limits of his physical and mental self. He races in ultra-endurance bike races on a singlespeed mountain bike, most recently winning the singlespeed race of the 2023 Arizona Trail Race— an 800 mile race across Arizona portaging his bicycle 20+ miles across the Grand Canyon!

In late 2016, Heather fell hard for mountain biking in more ways than one. A couple of rides on borrowed bikes and she was hooked. She bought her first mountain bike one month later and bikepacked through Costa Rica with her partner Paulo two months after that. In the years that have followed, mountain biking has completely reshaped Heather's life. She has embraced the culture and community of mountain biking, especially the wonderful friendships and camaraderie of the women's MTB scene. Bikepacking adventures with Paulo have taken her to incredible places around the world and sparked in her a passion for exploring by bike and for sharing her experiences through story-writing.

You know those couples who enable one another's crazy ideas? That's Michelle and J.B. They're avid adventurers, paddling to the Arctic Ocean, biking around Iceland, and a multitude of trips in between. They insist on at least three trips each year to the Boundary Waters...at least one in the snow. They opt for bikes more than any other medium these days, and they almost always have their two dingoes in tow.

  They call the shores of Lake Superior home (where they are slowly building their dream, another project)), and they are all about making new stories and friends as they go. She likes her whiskey neat, and he likes his beer cold, should you stop by to swap stories.

I love any adventure on two wheels, from riding roads to laps at the bike park. I am the Service Manager at Moab Cyclery and the Biking rep for Moab Trail Mix. I love making bikes and trails better!.

When he's not building trail or shooting photos you can try to find him exploring the depths of Pisgah National Forest, Nantahala National Forest, or the Cohutta Wildlife Management Area. A purveyor of bad ideas on two wheels, TJ like long rides in the forest and enjoys hiking/scrambling steep blue lines in search of Native Brooke trout.

Daniel quit his job in 2015 and rode his bike through Mexico till he ran out of money four months later. Ever since, he’s been going on bike trips, short and long, that get interrupted by times where making money becomes necessary. One day, while riding on the highway in Baja California, he got tired of looking back to see how close the cars were coming and took a dirt road. This caused him a saddle sore, numb hands, broken spokes, and a missing bolt rack. But the solitude, the pureness of the landscape, and the almost absolute absence of cars made him search for more dirt. Daniel likes documenting his rides with photos, to have something to remember when he gets old.
