It’s easy to call the end of summer the end of your riding for the year. There’s no more trips to the Alps, the trails are soggy and the nights are long – it’s a depressing time.
Don’t let it put you off though as there’s gold to be found among the fallen leaves. The weekend warriors are off the trails, loamy dirt makes a return and you’re no longer sweating after the first climb. As they say in BC “fall is the raddest of all”.
If that’s not enough motivation then here are 11 autumn edits full of pine needles, frosty breath and hero dirt to keep you motivated for the rest of the year.
F*ck you, get pumped
If you want motivation then look no further than Joel Anderson. Last October he was just a talented kid ripping around the Quantocks, now he rides with Nico Vink in the FEST Series.
Mid-air throttle twists, backflips and general pinning all makes us more giddy than a kid who’s eaten all their Hallowe’en sweets in one sitting.
