A Word From Sam Anderson
I’ve always loved writing, thanks to my dad, who always has and still does write for a living. It just so happens I’m also a rock climber. After a decade of dirtbagging, it made sense to put my writing degree and background to use.
My personal interests include: what’s behind the veil, other humans, long and rambling conversations, baseball, road biking, Mezcal, citrus, animal consciousness, and insects (especially tarantulas).
By now, results have proven the so-called ‘mullet’ setup’s utility on the gnarliest mountain bike trails. The Transition TR11 joins the party (in the back).
I don’t even know what that thing is. Has a recorder mated with bagpipes and spawned another grating instrument for Sean Villanueva O’Driscoll to play?
