In 2020 we took a trip across the US in the . We rode everywhere, from Massachusets to Park City, Moab to Crested Butte, Tahoe, and Bellingham.
A few years ago I wouldn't have found all the fantastic trails I did.
is a great tool and has opened access to trails for the masses.
But the masses make messes.
With this access comes responsibility.
As a mountain biker, you represent everyone who rides a bike.
The trails are for everyone, so please treat the environment and other trail users respectfully.
If you see litter pick it up, and if you don't have Trailforks yet - do yourself a favor and go get it!

I grew up on a bike in the woods well before cell phones, and I used my bike every day to get out of 'parent-range' and go exploring.
I learned early on how bikes could help you cover great distances and discover unique places that you couldn't get to any other way.
I was hooked! And 30 years later, I still kinda do that, just greater distances and uniqer 😏 places.
You should come too! goatEmtb offers tailored instruction in 1-on-1 or group sessions for beginner, intermediate, and advanced mountain bike and eMTB riders.

Get zen in the woods.
It’s a magical feeling when you are riding at your limit.
When you are totally taken to another dimension when there is no room in your brain for anything else, where nothing matters - except staying on your bike.
It is total freedom. As close to flying as you can get.
I started goatEmtb because I want to help people experience this same feeling.

I was always on a bike as a kid.
I had to ride on busy roads to get to school, so I always enjoyed the peace I found in the woods, away from the no-bike-lane streets and the noisy, smelly cars.
I still love getting into the woods and away from the traffic.
Today, I love to share my passion through guiding and coaching: Let me be your guide on your journey to a healthier, more active life, by developing mountain bike skills, and life hacks that will improve your riding, strength, flexibility, diet, and sleep patterns.
