AMAZING performance from 20 year old Danny Hart, winning UCI DH World Champs by 11 seconds! The (somewhat biased) British commentators gave quite a performance themselves…

Red Caveman. by Nils Nilsen
This was a really fun race. During pre riding the course seemed easy and boring, but once you’re flying at race pace, things happen a lot quicker and the surface gets really loose and gravelly as the riders churn up the packed desert.
Not too sure what happened in the swim. I [...]

My friends call my dad “Tarzan.” Not sure why.
As you may know that he has been fighting colon cancer of the 2nd time over this past year. His plight had been an inspiration for me to win XTERRA Worlds in October- something which I knew would make him very proud. (”Stoltz” means “proud” [...]

The Caveman has been lucky enough to be invited as 1 of 16 celebrity drivers at South Africa’s Top Gear festival.
On my way to Kayalami race track right now for a day’s fun, hopefully meeting Clarkson and some serious driving on the racetrack. Packed some clean undies…

Had a great race. To my amazement I had a 5min 20 lead off this uphill bike, and won by 5min. My Specialized 29er was AMAZING. Shows you- 29ers can climb.

I came to XTERRA Whistler for the single track and boy, I wasnt disappointed!
For sure the hairiest, most scary, most technical XTERRA course I’ve seen. I walked some of the most hectic sections to check them out, then get on the bike, motivate and attack. Felt the rush of adrenaline, realized I forgot to breathe. [...]

My 2005 off season reading was Brian Lopes’ book on mountain biking skills. As a fairly competent mountain biker, I was amazed at how much there is still to learn about the art of making an off road bicycle go fast.
My favorite quote from the book was: “if you [...]

2008 XTERRA Worlds
The Caveman’s somewhat-secret XTERRA tips.
“Somewhat secret” because I borrowed (and modified) the article from my “All” (previous blog posts) page.
• XTERRA is a strong mans race. An endurance event. Don’t let the seemingly short distances fool you. Forget about 400 repeats on the track and all-out sprints on [...]
