In this episode of Ridin’ The Line, Cason Smith and Ross Monckton close out the year with a classic solo-crew episode—trail talk, bike nerdery, and a couple well-earned rants included. Ross breaks down his first rides at Carters Lake (plus some leaf-blower trail stewardship), then dives into a surprise “Christmas elf” hookup: a Specialized Turbo Levo loaner and first impressions on modern e-bike tech (battery life, Class 3 mode, and SRAM Transmission).
From there, it’s Big Creek sessions, Hollywood laps, blowing off Typhoon, and why the southeast has way more to offer than people think—if you know where to ride. The boys also get into the wild price of bikes, bike-park etiquette (load the trailer right, please), Atlanta traffic, and a totally unexpected hobby rabbit hole: Mini-Z RC racing/drifting… and maybe some rock-crawling too.
