You may have heard that Miles and I are making a bike film called “Women Of Dirt.” Miles and I met through collaborating on Bones Over Metal.com. I was a fan of Miles’ work on Pink Bike. Over time our work started to be more coordinated. We started talking about wanting to produce a title. That’s when the idea of a bike culture movie that came from the POV of the women in the sport developed.
Miles grew up in Tahoe and The Big Island of Hawaii. He now resides in Hood River, Oregon. If you’ve ridden in Post Canyon, then you probably have run into Miles. The following video of Miles riding and building in Post Canyon shows Miles the way most of us know him.
It’s Monday Morning and the rain has come. Whistler has been very dry, so this moisture is giving the trails a much needed perk up. There are no events today, but tomorrow is Women’s Worx and it would be great if the rain stayed away for that event. So far, we have seen the youthful riders come out on top of the experienced riders. Kyle Strait over Brian Lopes in the Dual Slalom, for example. Or, Miranda Miller on top of the Pro Women’s Garbanzo DH. However, there were expected results. Jill Kintner showed why she is one of the most talented gate racers on the planet, by winning the Dual Slalom handily. Sam Hill was on the Garbanzo Podium. Crankworx is proving to be the best bike event on the planet.
