About Us
Some years ago, I was looking for photos or video of a particular trail in Western NC. I searched and searched but I couldn't find any photos or video of the trail. I just wanted to know what the trails were like there. I had seen photos online at sites such as mtbr.com, but going back to try to find them was impossible. So I started sirbikesalot.com as a way to catalog photos and video of all the trails I had ridden. The database is slowly growing and someday I hope to have the largest collection of mtb trail photos and video on the web. That means that I've done a lot of riding, which is the ultimate goal.
It's fairly easy to find particular photos, videos, and write-ups I've done. Just click on the Trails link to the left, then the state. Then you will see a table of trails and parks I've ridden and the photos and videos associated with each. You can sort by trail name, park, or city to find what you're looking for. The reason I did it this way rather than a lengthy selection process is sometimes you don't know the name of a trail or park in particular and you're looking for places to ride near a given location. So I just show you everything nearby.
sirbikesalot.com also has a racing team called The Knights of Sir Bikes-a-Lot. We do XC races, DH races, and 24 hour races and place really well in them. We also knight riders that race for the team or just ride with us (see below).
Finally, sirbikesalot.com is the information hub for mountain bikers in the Wilmington, NC and surrounding areas. Click on the Forum to find out what's going on in our area.
So just browse around and see what you can find. If you'd like to leave feedback, please click on the contact Sir Bikes-a-lot link at the very bottom of the page.

The Knights of Sir Bikes-a-Lot
The Knights. From left to right: Sir Launch-a-lot Sir Bikes-a-lot Sir Toots-a-lot Sir Finds-a-watch
Sir Launch-a-lot:
Known to spend more time in the air than on the ground, Sir Launch-a-lot will launch off of anything in his path -- rocks, roots, stumps, logs, small dogs, etc.. He creates his own line and he'll be damned if he's going to let you get in his way. Just get out the way if you know what's good for you. Seriously. This guy's out of control.
Sir Bikes-a-lot:
Sir Bikes-a-lot was cursed by a birthday gift from his sister -- a t-shirt with the name Sir Bikes-a-lot printed on it. The elusive Sir Bikes-a-lot is now doomed to wander the countryside, trying to settle down but unable to. The only way to see him in person is to ask him to go riding. He'll be there, even if he's half-dead, his kids are hungry and he has work to do (like a job). Priorities, man, priorities.
Sir Toots-a-lot:
You can guess what powers Sir Toots-a-lot on his bike. Able to break wind on command, he can dramatically increase his climbing ability, not to mention causing his competitors to quickly wither. The almighty Sir Toots-a-lot is undefeatable in closed quarters (or poorly ventilated areas).
Sir Finds-a-watch:
Sir Finds-a-watch's eyesight is so keen he has to wear special shades. After losing his watch at night in the pitch black on a trail he's never ridden before, Sir Finds-a-watch went back the next day, stopped and brushed some leaves aside, and lo-and-behold found his watch. A distant cousin of the X-man Cyclops, Sir Finds-a-Watch can burn holes in your Camelbak, causing all your water to leak out leaving you parched and exhausted.
