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

Well shit get me on the growing "hiring list!"

 

If I wasn't trying to buy a house, I would jump on a sweet hardtail I found locally on craigslist.

Had my eye on a Pipedream Moxie for a while now as well, but a 64* HTA just seems rediculous.

 

Totally understand. My buddies all swear by clipless. Im the only one on flats. I use raceface atlas pedals and vans shoes. Sooner or later I need to get some 5.10s



After reading the replys for the past hour, really need to get some 5.10s. I normally just wear vans halfcabs or Nike SB Janoskis but they are pretty soft, and like you, I lose pedal from time to time. :/

 

The BEST clipless pedals out there are TIME.

I have them on all my Mtn bikes, my road bike, my Freeride bike, my wife’s bike has them on there. Pair them up with five tens, they are the best combo.. super super easy to clip in and out of, they have adjustments on them so you can set the release angle once you start getting more confident. I will never go back to flats after riding these.. Get great uphill pull and feet don’t move on any downhills or while I’m in the air.

 

So..
I pulled the trigger..

 

Joined the Strava Club lol

Sub-adub-dubbed.

 

You're losing

Last week results:

 

haha my goal is to try and ride at least once a week, 10+ miles, but I don't always have time

at least I have the longest ride haha

 

I've gotten lucky and been on riding rips in CO the last 2 weekends.

Doing the Half Enchilada in Moab this weekend!

 

lucky! I can only ride today, since the weekend is all rain it looks like

 

That's a bummer.

I'm trying to avoid riding for a few days cuz my ass is hamburger meat after last weekend. May need to invest in chamois cream before Friday.

 

AWWEE YEAH! Post up pics once you get it assembled!!

Some tips from me.... Make sure you properly bed your brakes in before you go ride!! I didnt do this and had to de glaze and re bed.

Make sure you double check the tightness on bolts and stuff before your first ride and after your first ride.


Ride it like you stole it! I put 30 miles on my Jeffsy this weekend. Legs are killing me but i had a blast!


Also, if you dont like your DHR2s and end up replacing them, sell them to me! haha I like the white lettering

 

So, any advice for visiting Angel Fire? Think I am gonna try and take a week, and hit Durango and Angel Fire.

Just don't know what to hit on the return leg. Crested Butte and something else maybe?

 

haha I wish I had that problem. once summer is underway i'll be riding like 2 times a week at least

 

stoked! i signed up to Strava for this -- but can't ride rn with a heavy crash on Saturday
