    I said earlier in the year, it's probably going to be a messed up winter with snow on the ground for Thanksgiving and no snow/warm on Christmas day again. We shall see if I'm right or not

    I'm gonna Ms. Cleo it here and say you are right, I'd be willing to bet on it. MAYBE we have a quarter inch come down Monday, which honestly would be better than nothing, but I think we are going to have a green Christmas. As an adult, you don't really get presents anymore or care as much about that side of things. But I sure would like snow on Christmas morning no matter how old I get.

    I definitely agree. I always say I don't mind the cold when it's snowing, at least I feel like there is a reason I'm freezing my ass off

    So over an inch of rain today, we might not even have a snowbank left after this. Just imagine if it were all snow!!

    Well, swapped 2 tires yesterday, and its BETTER.

    Guessing I am going to have to cave in, and have it road force balanced. Never had to do that before... any idea on cost?

    And *cough* *cough*

    You sick? Or just faking for a long weekend :rofl:



    Can't remember what my road force balance cost, the most recent was at the dealer and part of a warranty thing and I didn't have to pay.

    Any idea where to get a thru-axle mount somewhat locally?
    Got a new toy, but, had to take the wheels of and put it in the backseat(box in bed)...

    I can call the shop I previously worked at in the morning. They would have either a Thule rack or Yakima rack. Are you looking for a tray mount or just the mount for a truck bed?

    Right now, just the mount. My delta works great. But, I have no way to mount a tray currently.

    My LBS, didnt have any, and the other 2 I called didnt either. 1 of them, was saying, we need to see the bike, and order it...

    Its a 15x110 boost

    Actually, Amazon came through for now. Wife found it, and snagged. This will be here sunday.

    @Unchained 5150.... I am not even sure what I picked up for you. I never really looked.

    My biggest issue is my current set-up...
    20181024_071810_1.jpg

    Been using the skewer delta on the rail, works fine.

    With the box, rear wheel sits on the box, for hitting trails close to the house its fine, but, i have no way to keep the wheel from sliding. And, I have no way to mount a rack/tray like you have. I was thinking of a kb bar, and work with that.
    But, I am probably gonna end up with one of his racks by spring as long as I dont get raped by taxes.

    Anyway, long story short, i am indecisive.. and picky... hahaha
