After 5 Years, Fox Racing Updates Favorite MTB Trail Helmet: Speedframe Pro First Look Review
  Fox Racing has been a stalwart brand for anything dirt, and its Speedframe helmet seems to be used in every mountain biking area that involves significant drops. If the terrain demands that you carry your bike over some sections on the way up, a Speedframe is likely on a rider coming down.

U.S. Tariff War Likely to Have Massive Impact on New Car Prices
  Earlier this week, U.S. President Donald Trump enacted new 25% tariffs against Canada and Mexico — while also increasing previous duties targeting China.

How to Train Your Physiological Resilience
  Everyone has a plan, Mike Tyson famously said, until they get punched in the face. The endurance athlete’s version of that dictum might be: everyone has a great VO2 max and an efficient running stride until they’ve run 20 miles. How you fare in those final miles depends, in large part, on how steeply these factors have declined over the...
Pilot’s Sunglasses Survive Plane Crash: His Ombraz Stayed On When the Engine Gave Out
  Eyewear is one of the most important accessories pilots use. Keeping bright light and glare out of ones eyes is preeminently important when youre piloting a metal flying machine hurtling through the air thousands of feet above the ground. Especially when something goes terribly wrong, maintaining your vision is essential to surviving whatever comes next.   Flight instructor Morgan Katnik learned...

  Chevrolet is about to go racing in an electric off-roader, but not one we can buy, yet. The vehicle is the Chevrolet Silverado EV ZR2 concept. It gives Chevys electric pickup the full off-road treatment, just in time to send it into the desert.   Chad Hall will take the truck to the Mint 400 in Las Vegas, competing in the...
Watch Bad Belaying Nearly Kill Pro Climber
  Saudi Arabian World Cup climber Sara Qunaibet was the victim of improper use of a Petzl GriGri by a professional coach. She suffered two broken feet and a broken back but could have easily died, especially considering she fell from just below the top anchors and landed beyond the pads.   The incident occurred last year, before the French rounds of...

  Want to avoid a testy interaction with a bear? Then make sure they cant get to your trash. Its a message that Colorado wildlife officials are sending to residents this week following an increase of conflicts between humans and bears over the last few years.

5 Knots Every Backpacker (Actually) Needs To Know
  Learning how to tie your shoelaces all those years ago sure has come in handy, and there are even more knots that can make your life easier in the backcountry.

Hollywood’s Latest Rack Is Its Best Yet: Hollywood Racks CrossTrack Review
  Hollywood Racks might not be the first brand that comes to mind when considering a new hitch bike rack. Its latest model, the CrossTrack, aims to change that. While the brand is relatively popular among RVers and e-bike riders, most people with high-end bikes have shied away because they all make contact with the bike frame.    The CrossTrack marks a...
Where Mystery Ranch Ends and YETI Begins: Ranchero EDC Backpack Review
  If it aint broke, dont fix it. Those wise words often conflict with the increasingly consumer-driven, never-satisfied outdoor industry. Its not inherently nefarious (mostly); outdoor athletes, recreational adventurers, and daily grinders will wear down, nitpick, and expose areas of improvement time and again.   Sometimes, a small change results in massive backlash, while other times, a sweeping change will drastically evolve...
Driving a Rental Car in the Snow Is a Recipe for Disaster. Here’s How to Stay Safe.
  I’d put on tire chains before, and I might have set a speed record for attaching them had I been in my own driveway.

We’d bought the correct chains for our vehicle down in town, but now they...
