Covers that I have shot for Decline Magazine

Starting and finishing at Lost Abbey Brewery in San Marcos, California the Belgian Waffle Ride is a 130 mile, 10,000+ feet of climbing death march over hot pavement, dirt and sand that is the ultimate challenge for many Southern California road cyclists. A shorter, less metal, option called the Wafer allows slower riders to get a taste of the terrain.

I followed Eric Porter along on the Titan Tropic mountain Bike Stage Race, where we raced 280 miles and 20,000 feet of climbing in five days across Cuba from Havana to Soroa to Vinales and then finally onto the finish at Cayo Jutias.

A freshly constructed pump track in the valley had the riders chomping at the bit to break in the new track but the track owner would have none of it until the dogs were seared and the burgers broiled under the hot the August sun.

I made the trek to Helena, Montana in June of 2014 to check out what the mountain bike riding and cycling community was all about and create a multimedia piece for Decline magazine. I was blown away by all the great trails just a few minutes from town, the super fun community of riders that live there, and especially the crew at the Gravity Garage bike shop.

Ray's Odd Couple contest assembled teams of two riders each - one mountain biker and one BMXer - paired with a videographer to create a short video edit riding all over the sprawling Cleveland, Ohio bike part over the course of 5 days. At the end of the shoot everyone partys, watches the videos and then votes for the winners. This year's winners were Andrew Taylor, Jeremy Ball and videographer Jimmy Gall.

These are images from various mountain bike product test editorial that I helped make happen for Decline magazine.

Behind the scenes footage of the photo shoot for Decline magazine's Nov/Dec 2014 cover. This cover had to make a big impact because it is timed to be released at the Interbike trade show in Las Vegas. To make it extra special a special printing process was used to create a plastic 3D lenticular image with the photo so we knew we have to get a really good shot and went out of our way to achieve the highest image quality. This video also includes Mike Day talking about his experience changing over from racing BMX to racing MTB and what it was like to be in the photo shoot.

Photos from the 2014 Red Bull Rampage in Virgin, Utah. The Red Bull Rampage is the ultimate freeride mountain bike competition on earth. This is where the best riders in the world compete to prove they are the best free riders on the planet. This shoot is the highlight of my year, I have been going to this event since 2002.

Photos from the qualifying days of the 2013 Red Bull Rampage in Virgin, Utah. The Red Bull Rampage is the ultimate freeride mountain bike competition on earth.

Here's a gallery of images taken over the years of random MTB personalities.

I've shot a LOT of different cycling events over the past ten years. Events including some ridiculous Red Bull mountain bike contests & this here SSCXWC event, which changed to the LA venue at the last minute, was the funnest & easiest to shoot bike race I have ever had the pleasure of attending. I wish I could go to this every year!

A couple photo shoots at the famed Simi Valley downhill trail called G-Spot.

A day spent shooting at the Mullen compound with a visit from his neighbor Tim Commerford ( Rage Against The Machine bassist), tennis rockstar John McEnroe and mountain bike rockstar Shaun Palmer. Oh yeah a couple good riders were there also including Kyle Strait, Mike Montgomery and Tyler McCaul.

A long weekend spent riding mountain bikes with the boys at Mammoth Mountain and on the Lower Rock Creek trail.

A couple days spent behind the scenes at a "Built To Shred" Fuel TV shoot yielded these gems as pro mountain bikers take on everything that the skateboarders could build.

A day spent shooting Aaron Gwin and Nico Mullaly as they tried out their new SRM power meter training devices.

Went on a photo tour at the Intense Cycle factory in Southern California.

A photoshoot in the lakes basin region near Graeagle followed by some shooting at the '09 Downieville Classic mountain bike race.

The 2002 Red Bull Rampage was the second year of the ultimate freeride mountain bike contest. Started in 2001, the contest immediately set the standard, for all other freeride mountain bike contests on the planet. Canadian Tyler Super-T Klassen won the event in 2002 with a 40-foot cliff drop off of the red rock cliffs of Virgin, Utah. These are transparency scans, including a few assembled sequences, from back before I went digital.
