10 Tracks with Chris Bell

It's been a minute, but we've got a fresh playlist up. This week on YGR 10 Tracks, we’re rolling with Chris Bell, a Fort Collins-based IT consultant, coffee loyalist, musician, 'Dead fan and all-around bike explorer. Whether he’s grinding on the trainer or out riding solo, Chris fuels his adventures with a playlist that reflects a lifelong connection to music—one shaped by his dad and the talented local musicians he plays with around town.

Should you sign for Hughes to be a Natural Area?

Listen, I get it—turning Hughes into a Natural Area might sound like a good idea. If I didn’t know the full story, I’d likely agree with you. If someone approached me in a parking lot asking me to sign a petition to get the issue on the November ballot, I’d probably sign it. Who wouldn’t want more natural areas?

Ride Review: Greg Scanlan’s 2022 S-Works Crux

Greg Scanlan raced this 2022 Specialized S-Works Crux to a win the men's 50-54 race during the first-ever USA Cycling Gravel National Championships in Gering, Neb, last September. If everything goes according to plan, he will race the same bike in the same town and get the same result on Sunday. The 58cm Crux is dripping with Dura-Ace and weighs in at 17.50 lbs. The only difference from last year is a shift from 38mm to 45mm tires.

Good luck to Greg and everyone racing on Sunday.
