Welcome to the offical blog of Extreme Sports WannaBes! In these articles you'll find tips, advice, how tos, product reviews, and tons of other information all about Enduro riding, the unique chin mounts we make, and our experiences as riders, vloggers, and YouTubers. Many of our articles have companion YouTube videos if you'd rather watch than read the info we're covering.

We also typically write-up short summaries of our podcast episodes. You can find the full episodes on your favorite podcasting platform (eg, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, etc) or on our YouTube channel under the Playlist "Mobcast".

We love engagement, so if you have an idea, want to ask a question, or think we're wrong about something, please don't hesitate to drop a comment, message us via the webchat, send us an email, or find us on Instagram. We're pretty responsive (unless you're a troll 😏).

The WannaBes team recently picked up two brand new 2021 KTM 500 EXC-F enduro bikes from Malcom Smith Motorsports in Riverside, CA.

New bikes are only new until that first ride, so we like to think of bike ownership as more of a journey. Ultimately it is the time you spend with the machine that should bring you the most joy, so why not make it fit your riding style and enjoy the trip.

My 2018 Beta 390 RR-S doesn’t look as shiny after 2 years of hard riding and unfortunate repairs but I still have a soft spot for what really should be a great bike - If I could just keep it running.
