Mountain Flyer Magazine - Issue 79

In this issue

We all come to mountain biking from different backgrounds. For some, it’s
handed down—a parent’s passion igniting a love of trails on two wheels in
the next generation. For others, it’s a happy accident. You date someone who
introduces you to the sport, and next thing you know your mountain bike has
outlived the relationship. Or, if you’re Indiana Pacers legend Reggie Miller,
the base player from Rage Against the Machine invites you to join him and
legendary surfer Laird Hamilton on a ride, as a way to welcome you to the
Malibu community. Then, after you retire from the NBA, you start chasing XC
and gravel podiums.

However you were introduced, Miller included, it’s likely the pandemic
amplified your time on two wheels. And, while the pace of life has since
picked back up, there’s no quieting the growing love of the sport. As we
embrace winter, whether on skis, fat tires or sunny singletrack, we’ve put an
issue together that speaks to the unexpected and exciting people and places
who are all in on bikes.

We feature, of course, Miller, the NBA Hall of Famer who’s using his platform
to grow and diversify the sport. Then there are the 130 acres in the heart of
New York City that are home to Highbridge Bike Park; the Bay Area builder
blending their love of bikes, metal and working with their hands to create
authentic, purposeful frames; the partnership between two sister cities—one
in Japan, the other in Switzerland—to develop Niseko’s first bike park; and
the infamous Tour de France winner-turned-weed dispensary entrepreneur
Floyd Landis, who has rediscovered his love of cycling through mountain
biking. Plus, we dive into electronically controlled suspension and review the
Kona Process 134 DL 29, Cannondale Habit Carbon 1 and Liv Intrigue LT Pro
Advanced 0.

It's all in No. 79. Meet The Winter Issue.
