I have been the primary Director of Photography, Editor, and Photographer for Rooted MTB since 2017. Well into our third season, the series follows three young men as they circumvent privateer style racing and the experiences that blossom from that endeavor.
Yeah, fall-time riding in Crested Butte is a bit stereotypical, but its worth it. Pumpkin spice lattes, leaf peeping, uggs, and mountain bikes in the woods just really brings the season together.
The boys in this episode head south for adventure racing, and an adventure is what it was. Between experiencing culture, breaking stereotypes, and having a flat out damn good time, Oaxaca, Mexico is somewhere you should definitely want to ride your bike.
Purgatory Resort in Durango, CO name is inspired by Dante's Inferno because it's fun as hell. Watch the boys ride downhill bikes and enjoy a quick trip to Durango.
