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

Never ridden gravel in my life but Stephen Lewis from MTB Podcast swears up and down by the Cannondale Super-X. They come in several builds too depending how broke you wanna be.

Also hello from FoCo!

 

Congrats man!
Just be ok with your bike addiction taking a hit. Homes are expensive!
Buuut if you build a jump/pump track, you can save money on deer valley tickets
Where’s the house? Looks like north of SLC. O-town, Layton?

 

Tacoma powered MTB road trip last summer.

 

Sandy. And yeah, I am finding that out. Got lots of storage area though, so the bikes will be well taken care of.

 

Congrats, looks awesome!!! I have been in the paperwork phase myself for too damn long, was supposed to close back on March 1st and it keeps getting postponed, had to cancel the roofer this morning.

 

woah woah i missed something, you are buying a home?!

 

The Specialized Sequoia or the AWOL is a great bike. They've got one at my LBS on closeout that I keep wanting to drop coin on despite the fact that I totally do not need it. I have a full Ultegra Roubaix that's only a couple of years old that I never ride lol... But for some reason the AWOL just looks awesome AF.

 

Keystone is a blast, it just may be the rockiest bike park I’ve ever been to.

 

God I love Keystone. Went for the first time the day after I got married a few years ago. Unfortunately I dont get to go back as much as I like. Looks like yall had a good time! We normally rent the Scott DH bikes when we go

 

Yup, very gnarly, one of the reasons I like it. The jump pic is from Steamboat bike park. It was a great trip. We rode XC in the Black Hills, Glendo WY, Steamboat Springs and hit the bike parks at Keystone and Steamboat.

 

Hell yea man, I love my gambler! Its hard to max it out on big hits compared to others.

 

I'm sorry, but I gotta point out that if you're going to a bike park the day after your wedding you're doing your honeymoon wrong.

 

Had a great time. Need to find time to do another "out west" trip again this year. I hauled both my XC bike and my enduro bike with me to avoid renting. (I like to be on a familiar bike if I'm hitting the black diamond stuff). My son just brought his enduro bike. He's still young and able to pedal that tank up all the hills (and get to the top wayyyy before me).

 

Sometimes, the only way to get a ride in is to drag the kiddos along.

 

Haha that foot rest set up is legit!

 

Yep. Found one I liked on Wednesday, went back and put an offer on it Friday, got accepted on Monday, and I spent all yesterday doing mortgage application stuff. It's felt like a month since I first walked through it. Thankfully its been rainy so I can't go ride, and this didn't take up quality bike time

 

This is my nightmare.

 

Or doing it wayyyy right!!

 

Gotta agree on this one. Maybe the second day after...

 

You know...most people try to remove grams off the bike, right? #Dad-duro
