ABOUT DIRT FEST
Maurice and Elaine Tierney started Dirt Rag in 1989, creating a magazine that provided an inclusive forum where readers shared their stoke for the riding, culture, and lifestyle of mountain biking. After having a great time at the legendary Jim Thorpe Mountain Bike Weekend, the pair decided that Dirt Rag was in a position to translate the magazine’s in-print stoke to an in-person “gathering of the tribe.”
The first edition of Dirt Fest took place in 1991 at Camp Soles, a YMCA youth camp east of Pittsburgh. The original event was decidedly chill. There was no vendor expo bristling with the bleeding edge of bicycle technology. Demo rides amounted to swapping bikes with a newfound friend. There was a lake, a bonfire, and a bicycle polo field. Nighttime entertainment consisted of an attendee strumming a guitar at the group bonfire—a far cry from The Earthtones jamming for a circus tent full of partying mountain bikers.

Lael has ridden across the globe and inspired 1000’s of people of all ages to get out and pedal. She’s had some major accomplishments and some major disappointments along the way. Lael is currently racing the Tour Divide (as of typing this she is at mile 780 and in 4th place overall and about 70 miles off the male record set by Mike Hall in 2016.) Val and Lael discuss racing the Divide, racing in Switzerland, ups, downs, and an overflowing bike bag more worth of goodness.

There isn’t much to say on this episode other than if you’ve ever wanted some really honest, constructive, experienced, and thoughtful opinions about life at the bike shop from knowledgeable customer service specialists, this is it. Give it a listen. You won’t be disappointed. Oh…and don’t use lube. Please.

Matt breaks out a good rant when they discuss some of what we’re creating for the future. Matt also confirms that 650b x 47 tires are not good. Pens are important. So are breaks that continue working. Is racing breeding monsters? Don’t do this… with this tire. What happens when tires explode with 12 ounces of sealant in them? How many psi can customers get their tires up to? Matt may be shitting on the manual machine – he explains. Kenny shares the best thing possible.

We hear from three Executive Directors from three different trail organizations: Christine Reid of the North Shore Mountain Bike Association in North Vancouver, BC, Ernest Saeger of the Vail Valley Mountain Trails Alliance is Colorado and Sara Gress of the Wood River Trails Coalition in Sun Valley Idaho. The later two groups have recently rebranded from Mountain Bike organizations into more all encompassing Trail Organizations. We discuss the reasons, advantages and possible disadvantages of the switch and most importantly, we talk about the conversation your group should be having.
