Proof that you should sell your mountain bikes and only partake of the much safer sport Dirt biking

Took a mellow lap down vertigo tonight with the toddler riding shotgun. The giggles at the start made the climb 100% worth it. Ok it was worth it anyway because #tryingtoimprovefitness.

Steezy bros, and it is, for sure. Those jump lines are HUGE though, and the guys hitting them are impressive. The trails above the jump park are pretty good too, nice and chunky.

I swear that place has been open for a while? Either that or I ran a different park in EM? Maybe they just rebuilt it?
I have a video if I can figure out how to link it in.

1st rip on the crest this morning with a buddy from college. Cleaned puke hill and rode the high line on the spine for the first time. We dropped down into park city and went down red coat and insurgent. My favorite route.
Puke hill is no joke, good job!
We’ve been in Salt Lake for a week due to my wife recovering from surgery. Our little dude gets up at 530, so instead of hanging at the in-laws all morning, I’ve been taking him out on rides. We’ve ridden Round Valley, EaMo, Corner Canyon…
Any other recommendations? The kid is a bobble head and in his best interest smooth single track is preferred.

You ridden vertigo on the alpine side of corner canyon? I think lambert park in alpine has some smoother stuff too.

Nice! If you haven't ridden it, Mueller Park in Bountiful. Ride North Canyon up and Mueller Park down. Lots of hikers, so a bit of care is good, but a really fun trail! https://www.mtbproject.com/directory/8010494/bountiful
I cruised home this evening to get a few days in the office, I’ll probably be riding up there on Friday and Saturday morning this week
I need just the lower part of the saddle clamp.. but can't seem to find one online... and what I can find is like $30 🤷♂️... but a whole new post with clamp is as cheap as $10
Maybe I am searching with the wrong terms.. what is that lower piece of the clamp called??

I would think that pulls up something close to what you need but I think they are called an upper/lower seat post clamp.

Jenson has the right part for a couple brands but I don't see yours (https://www.jensonusa.com/Seatpost-Clamp-Parts). That KS lower seat clamp might work if you feel like gambling $5.99 plus shipping?
Another option would be to get yourself down to the Salt Lake Bike Collective during their open shop/retail hours and having a dig through their seat posts bin, they might have a clamp that would work. Or a shop that retails Specialized/Bontrager stuff might have something in their spares bucket.
Or it might just be New Seat Post Day. Dropper posts are neat, and they've come way down in price.

Bike collective is a great idea. I 100% support a dropper post upgrade, probably one of my favorite features on my new bike, never knew how much I would like one.

I'm pretty sure I have a carbon seat post with clamps you can have. Only unwashed heathens ride without droppers
