The Paul Component Engineering, Monē Bikes, and Sierra Nevada Sierra Recycler Cruiser

For the 6th year in a row, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co asked Paul Components to build a custom one-off bike for them to show-off at Sea Otter Classic in Monterey, then give-away to raise money for a non-profit. After thinking long and hard about what’s already been done and hasn’t been done at Sea Otter, Paul came up with a wild proposition for a super fun bike that would be a conversation starter for sustainability and environmental thoughtfulness in bicycle manufacturing, the #SierraRecycler. Sierra Nevada loved this idea, being leaders in solar power, recycling, estate farming, transportation, composting, and water reclamation in the craft beer industry. Read on to learn more about how this project came together from the folks at Paul!

Ultra Distance Plastic Resistance: An Open Pledge for the Ultra Community

Ultra Distance Plastic Resistance: An Open Pledge for the Ultra Community

We all know about FKTs and ITTs but there’s a new acronym on the ultra scene: PFT. The brainchild of Taylor Doyle, PFT stands for “plastic free time,” and was an ultra-racing style she undertook last year on the 2,600km Pan Celtic Race. The effort was so eye-opening about the amount of single-use plastics that are thrown out during most ultra distance cycling events that she’s back now with a new kind of challenge for would-be ultra racers: the Ultra Distance Plastic Resistance pledge. Read on for the full deets about this inspiring challenge!

We went back and forth with the hundreds of submissions made to the #InternationalSinglespeedDay hashtag, but we kept coming back to Scout The Wise’s submission, which broke the mold of the typical bike portraits. Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE seeing everyone’s singlespeeds but this entry just stood out.

We’ve contacted Scout The Wise and will send them a Feldspar jacket

PAUL Component announced its selections on Friday.

Thanks for everyone playing along in celebrating Paul and Amanda’s birthdays with #InternationalSinglespeedDay!

Apply Now: ATB Challenge Season 2 – Flèche it Out (Now Open For All Across the Globe)

Last year the All Terrain Bicycle Challenge selected five challengers and unleashed them on a brutal 71-mile course in Vermont. For season two, the project is shifting from old school “maybe it goes” style ATB routes to randonneuring inspired distance and time. Applicants are challenged with creating their own ultimate route, and five lucky teams of three will attempt to complete their ride, documenting it along the way, for a chance to win cash and prizes from ENVE, Fat Tire, The Radavist, Acre, and Mythical State Of. We at The Radavist are stoked to be the media partner for this event, so read below, plan a route, apply, and follow along for more!
