ABOUT THE EPISODE

MTB Ben sat down with Lilias Ide, who is the Events, Retail, and Marketing Manager for the Kingdom Trail Association. KTA, commonly referred to as Kingdom, is the go-to spot for great mountain biking, with over 100 miles of trails coordinated in partnership with local private landowners, the Burke Mountain Resort, and state-owned land.

Ben and Lilias chat about KTA, the trails, her experience and background, and the upcoming Winterbike. It’s a fun listen and a really great look behind the scenes of what they have going in Burke, Vermont.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Join an exploration of a community with both a multi-use Trail Association and a Mountain Bike Club. Brent’s guest is Daniel Cammiade of the Nature Trails Society in Victoria, British Columbia, located in the Southern end of Vancouver Island. They discuss whether an organization should identify as a Bike Club or a Trail Association, and how best to deal with a Land Manager that, simply put, isn’t interested in allowing mountain bike access.

About Brent:

Brent is a Trail Builder with the North Shore Mountain Bike Association and focuses on the Upper and Lower Griffen Trails on Mount Fromme. Through his work with Trailforks he’s come to discover the world of advocacy beyond just his home in North Vancouver, and serving as the inspiration to create Front Lines MTB.

ABOUT THE EPISODE

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Favorite tools? They share them. No guests either – the guys are on their own for the 90th episode of The Path Podcast. They discuss the Atherton racing situation, what goes into running a race team, and spend some time considering whether the move away from Trek is a good move. Then they start getting into the nerdy bike weeds and discuss components, bikes, and more. Tani is digging on his composite Wah Wah pedals and Nathan is done with Shimano brakes.

The Path guys welcome all of your questions and encourage you to send them an email with the subject “Podcast Question” to podcast@thepathbikeshop.com.

ABOUT EPISODE 13.5 – AQUARIANA GUESTS MARIANNE BOCOCK DOYLE & RACHEL MORGAN

Episode 13.5 is a fun little impromptu session with Marianne Bocock Doyle and Rachel Morgan, two of the participants at this year’s Aquariana hosted by Bikekitz. They have both decided to attend Aquariana, Rachael as a full weekend participant and Marianne as a single day participant. Needless to say, their experience so far has been everything they were hoping it would be, and possibly more. Both have now tried fat biking for the first time!
