All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

yeah...a guy I work with has always been about them(I bought the bike off of him) only had it since late last summer, but im a big fan of it

 

Speaking of England, I'm trying to figure out how to acquire a Hope HB160...and how to pay for one.

Anybody got a dentist license I can borrow?

 

Great pics! I'm actually making a moab trip in April I cant wait!

 

congrats great looking truck! I love that color!

 

I know me to...after walking the row of tacos when the salesman asked which one I wanted to test drive, I didn't even think I just blurted out "the grey one" haha

 

Here are some additional shots of the @KB Voodoo bars with the Rocky Mounts. I used a Driveshaft HM and the Lowball Locking to mount the bikes. Also note that you need additional tie down straps to what's shown in the photos.

From ground to the highest point on the bikes is about 80" or roughly 6 1/2 feet.

 

haha thats awesome!

 

@honda50r yeah, saturday and sunday. Still crazy seeing that entire parking lot filled with bikers, used to the old days when on a big day there were maybe 50 people!

 

Sounds like the course bodied a few riders too. Trying to make a trip out there some time.

 

The new hotness to keep me from trying to kill myself on my fatbike (again...)

 

@Gunshot-6A
for sure, the high speed section near the end seriously fucked up some people. Hitting close to 50 mph in a tight twisty spot. The rain made for some treacherous conditions, but it dried up decently so that the UCI guys could really stretch out their legs! Dakotah had the line of the day with this sniper gap that allowed him to skip straight into a berm after the rock wall section.

 

I just saw the carnage that was Amanda Batty. Looked pretty rough.

 

Wouldn’t a second bar with a tire tray be ideal for the back wheel?

 

I'm trying to avoid using the second bar because it would add a little bit of overall height. Basically trying to keep it as low as possible. Plus I like just having the one bar that I can leave on and still easily access the bed without having to remove the other bar.

 

Yeah man ! You're local to Knoxville? We were pretty hammered on the mountain (as was everybody) I'm at Windrock either wheeling or riding often. We need to get together

 

How about some bikes and bikes?
I just built this rack today. Still need to correct some fasteners, round over corners and powder coat.

 

^^^ I just sold my VStrom 650 ... 54000 reliable miles ... to a guy on the opposite coast. Even sight unseen, and with shipping plus a broker fee to handle the paperwork, he thought it was worth it. I sometimes wondered about a bike ride back on the back of it, but I think it would be too awkward to carry my MTB on the back of my DR650. Maybe if I had learned to ride in Vietnam or India ...

 

Yeah, it’s going to be interesting for sure. I’ve heard the big thing is cross winds.

This is my daily driver. So far it has 45,000 miles. I bought it with. 28,000.
I put 1,000 miles a month on it. With the bike rack that might increase.

 

Welcome to the money pit known as TW. Where do you usually ride in NE? It's looking like we're going to be waiting a bit before the snow is gone and the trails are good.
Doesn't bother me cause it means I can be in the woods dodging trees with a board under my feet instead of a bike. I just got mine back from having both shocks serviced, now to just clean the rest of it and wait for the warmer weather to come through.
