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

Hahaa! I was just kidding. But I did break it to her I will be riding the morning of our wedding, she totally rolled her eyes at me,

 

Looks awesome, and I’m stoked you like it too. Mines been on for 1k so far, no issues other than the sticky seals that need to occasional suspension fluid under the collar (2m job).

That my setup too. Unless it looks like possible rain, then I bring the hip pack with a raincoat in it, or longer rides for the small bladder.

Damn, super cool of her. Good luck on the challenge, I couldn’t do it this month (traveling, bike needs rebuild).

 

I missed day 1 of the challenge, so yeah...

I live 10 mins from a good TH, but EVERY day is a little much for my schedule.

 

I definitely anticipate some night rides

 

I try and get one good ride a weekend in most of the year, and now that I live super close, a few during the week pre-work.

 

Just bought a 1up.

 

how do you guys deal with riding in the wind? The wind here has been so bad it pushes me down to like 8mph some times.

Felt like I should just start walking lol.

 

ok so its a mind over matter thing. Got it.

I got pushed down yesterday to like 7-8 mph for about a mile stretch every 4minutes or so on my route and wanted to throw my bike off the freeway.

 

haha yea probably gonna have to unfortunately no magic secret.

 

DuPont yesterday....

 

You gotsta get more arrow!

It sucks... no two ways around it; I just get as low as possible and at least make an attempt to check the wind direction before I leave and decide on a route. Out against the wind and back with a tailwind... if possible.

How’s more arrows gonna help?

 

Think about how fast and sleek they are when flying through the air... thus, more arrow!

 

Looking for some info on a bike mount over top of my soft tri-fold tonneau cover.

 

Got my rocky mount in today. Let me start by saying I think this is a great piece of gear, however my bike is a tad too long to mount across my bed properly. I think no may get a roof rack with mount or possibly a hitch mount. I wanted to mount it long ways as when my wife and I go camping I still want a good bit of space for our other junk.

 

You can get a rail for the front of the bed and the bike will fit parallel with the truck. Fits better that way

 

I feel like two bikes like that next to each other will take up the whole bed won't it? Also, will that work with a tonneau cover?

 

Tailgate pads can hold 5+ bikes sitting side by side so the room is there. And neither/both will work with a tonneau cover. Depends on what you have

 

Just replaced the fork on my Trek Session that I bought around 1.5 months ago. I'm selling a Rockshox Boxxer RC since I'm just not a fan of coil forks, everything works great. Stem is at 6.5 inches.

I thought I'd open it up to the TW crew first with a special deal, $350 including shipping (shipping to US only).

Reply here or DM with for any details or if interested!

 

I normally like to run the dorado myself...but had a boxer RC before and it exceeded my expectations.
