Underexposed is a self-filmed and produced series by Pivot Cycles athlete Brice Shirbach dedicated to showcasing trail advocacy and stewardship while exploring a variety of trails in places that may be unfamiliar to many. Join Brice as he explores the personal motivations behind the effort that goes into mountain bike advocacy while sampling the trails they work so hard for.
Our time in Finale proved to be memorable for a multitude of reasons, many of which go well beyond the brilliant trails. Stefano’s team at Evolve have the feel of an extended family, and the bond between them had a profound impact on our group. The joy they have for sharing their stunning corner of the globe is palpable, and the absence of gatekeeping or turning a nose up to visitors is a welcome respite from much of what happens throughout mountain biking in other parts of the world. Mountain biking is a force here, both economically and socially, and it’s clear after spending time with locals, from shuttle drivers, to mechanics, to the incredible guides, and Stefano himself, that the trails here have formed an honest to goodness connective tissue between locals and visitors alike.
