The first shots I ever took with a DSLR

This post is an oldie, but a goodie, so I’m going to recycle it!  I haven’t been posting any mountain bike pictures because I don’t have time to ride any more, so let’s just reminisce about the good old days of unemployment! Back when I bought my first camera (a Canon 20d), I pulled it...

Breckenridge Section of the Colorado Trail

I’ve waited a while to post these pictures to make it seem as if I’m out riding my mountain bike. Those folks who just glance at the pictures will think, “Wow Steve Z has such an amazing rock star life, shooting photos and all kinds of great rides in the mountains!” But all you 3...

The Blair Witch Trail

Here are some more photos from my Keystone tilt-shift mountain bike adventure. The Blair Witch Trail connects the Swan River section of the Colorado Trail to Keystone Ranch. It’s a super sweet section of trail. This time of year it switches from bright, sunny and pretty Colorado wildflowers to pine beetle death and destruction.

Three Rad Pictures from some obscure trail in Routt National Forest

On my final day in Steamboat, I headed southeast out of town past Stagecoach Reservoir to Kristi and Danny’s house. We shot an epic Sport The Dress™ session in the mountains near their home. After the shoot I headed back to Boulder the back way, over Gore Pass. On the way, I was hoping to...

Riding Steamboat Hot Springs Trail and Lower Bear Trail

On my second day in Steamboat I headed a little farther out of town. Steamboat has had the same wet spring weather that we’ve had in the Front Range, so most of the high elevation trails were reported to be pretty swampy. I rode up the Hot Springs Trail to Lower Bear Trail and back...

Me. Launching.

OK, I’m long overdue updating this site. I’ve got some new employees that have been keeping me busy doing ‘real’ work. But I’m here in Steamboat taking more mountain biking photos, so I really have to get these old pics off the camera. 2 Sunday’s ago, Ryan and I rode the Ceran St. Vrain trail...

Ending the Ned Season where it began . . . with snow

After a full day of beautiful weather and VeloSwapping on Saturday, I figured I had to get back up to Ned for a mountain bike ride before it’s too late.  Well it wasn’t nearly as warm as I had hoped; the high was 50 and the wind was brisk.  All the leaves are long gone,...

Out of the office and into the Foliage

My staunch work ethic finally crumbled this week. People who know me wondered, “how long can you keep this up?” I kept it up until Thursday. Glorious Thursday, when editing be damned, I had to get out onto the trails and out in the glorious fall weather. I knew the leaves were turning up there....

Mountain Biking in the Indian Peaks Wilderness

I headed out on a pretty big ride this Sunday. It wasn’t actually *in* the Indian Peaks Wilderness, because that of course would be illegal, and we all know that that would never happen. These shots were just above Yankee Doodle Lake, with a nice view of the peaks in the background.

Christmas Mountain Biking Photos at Morris Bridge / Flatwoods

No, I don’t feel bad at all that I’m missing out on skiing. Holiday tourists, lines, icy highways … or flip flops, shorts, and short sleeves … hmmmmm. Do I look sad?  How do you like my leftover helmet from my 1996 race team?  I like it, it matches the 1995 Stumpjumper I’m on. Some...

Back when I used to ride mountain bikes

I think I’ve said this like a bajillion times, but I’ve been working on the computer a lot.  I’ve been doing some cool stuff though.  Almost as cool as railing pristine mountain singletrack with fresh legs and new tires.  Mmmmm . . . singletrack.

Daily Photo – The Bobsled Trail

Well I’ve been too busy to blog much this month. My photography work has really been picking up, which is great news. I have a backlog of photos so I’m going to try and make an effort to get them posted. Here are a couple more mountain biking photos from the Salt Lake trip. After...
