SPIN-UP IN A BREWERY IS BACK!
After taking a short break since the last event in 2015, “Spin Up in a Brewery” is back by popular demand! Established in 2012, it is again a collaboration between two West Sussex based companies, the craft brewery Dark Star and bicycle brand Kinesis UK. Spin Up in a Brewery brings together Bikes, Beer and BBQ for a day of fun at the Dark Star.
Everyone is invited to either just come along and soak-up the fun with like-minded people or for those that want to take part to win great prizes they can compete in static bike racing knock-out rounds throughout the day with grand final winners crowned at the end of the afternoon.

READER'S RIDE: LUISA'S BMC TEAM MACHINE SL03
Each week we like to feature a ride which catches our eye and this time around we were lucky to even see this bike! This is in-house Hunt engineer, Luisa Grappone's tiny 47cm BMC Team Machine SL03.
READER'S RIDE: KURT'S BMC ROAD MACHINE DISC
Over the past few weeks, we have been featuring a few "dream builds" on our Instagram Story. Whether you have an entry-level machine or a stable full of top end bikes, these are rides which make the eagle-eyed cyclist turn their head. And one thing is for certain - Kurt's BMC is a part of this "dream build" club.
READER'S RAMBLE: LUISA'S CLIMBING SPECIAL
With one of the most interesting Giro's to ever happen in recent memory, we thought we'd share Luisa Grappone's (Hunt in-house engineer) ride up the Passo della Borcola. While the Borcola will rarely headline in the Giro, it packs a punch that even the climbers will feel.
CANYON EISBERG UPDATE: TOUR SERIES DOMINATION AND THE RAS
The hard work of Canyon Eisberg has come together, with a stunning streak of wins from the OVO Energy Tour Series. Harry Tanfield delivered a remarkable show of strength as Canyon Eisberg snatched the Tour Series lead in Stevenage.
HUNT DISCUSSIONS: IS XC DEAD?
After a long wait since the first World XC round, the classic Albstadt did not disappoint last weekend. But the promise of a more technical Nove Mesto got us thinking…
READER'S RAMBLE: SOUTH DOWNS WAY
The South Downs Way holds an almost legendary status for any die-hard, all-day, cross-country rider. And rightly so – it is, in the most literal sense, a ride across the country that jaunts through Hampshire, West Sussex and East Sussex. Stretching a grand total of 100miles from Winchester in the west to Eastbourne in the east, it is an all-day epic MTB ride.
THE CASSETTE #17: ANG'S XC MIX
This week’s Cassette has is the first ever inclusion from a Hunt team member’s parent: Hamish’s mum. Since this week is all about XC, we thought we’d reach out to Ang to spin us a few tracks that she puts on for an XC MTB ride.
READER'S RIDE: PACE RC129
This week's Readers Ride is our first ever MTB feature! With this, we thought it would be great to show you a bike which belongs to Hunt. That’s right – it’s our communal MTB used by all of us here when in need.
WHEEL INSIGHT: SUPERDURA DYNAMO DISC
True freedom from charging during your bike-packing adventures, hassle-free commuting, and winter training. The SONdelux Dynamo powers your lights and charges your GPS/phone. Our HUNT 25mm wide rim, 4Season Disc rear hub, and 32-spoke build provide excellent durability wit
THE CASSETTE: DAN'S SEGGY MIX
We called upon in-house MTB film connaisseur Dan Clark to list his five favorite songs from riding films. We can almost guarantee that if you recognize these songs from their film, you will want to go out for a ride!
GLOBAL CYCLING NETWORK VERSUS JOSH IBBETT: ATLAS MOUNTAINS, MOROCCO
It seems every day we are hearing of Josh Ibbett taking off to somewhere remote to ride his bike. But this time around it was with a bit of a twist. Our friends over at Global Cycling Network invited Josh to teach them the ropes of bikepacking in quite possibly a place on every Bikepacker's bucket list - the Atlas Mountains.
