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

i have 4 pairs of the everywhere and kinda wish i got the evil collab pair from this summer.

im a medium in most pants, 6 ft, and get the 32x32. the shoestring belt thing is a life saver. will be trying a couple rides in them this year. my main concern is the back waist. the evil collab had a higher waist in the back for a little more protection. either way, will be a semi upgrade from the adidas sweat pants ive been wearing for years.

 

I have the fox pants and wear them for all riding this time of year in the bay area.
They have great ventilation and fit great.

Although they're definitely MTB/downhill pants so not like the Ketl ones where they can be multipurpose.

 

I just put in a text notification for them.

The only pants I've worn riding are the "weatherproof" (name brand, not actually weatherproof) costco brand and they did well at windrock, they're labeled as adventure pants.
They do stretch and will brush sprinkles or water if you brush against a bush hiking, hell I was curious and just poured water on my leg, it beads off and the water that does sit there takes 5 seconds to absorb, which riding it would never have time to before being shaken off..

I'll have to think about it, and try these pants riding soon, at $15 a pair when I bought them it's hard to go wrong.

 

I've got some O'Neil pants that are pretty nice for the cold mornings ..

I have some TLD pants 34 and jersey ( L ) listed up on PB if those will fit ya... I'll give you a deal on.

Dawn Patrol sesh this after yesterdays rain.



Last Thursdays group ride couple of cool shots a few of my buddies took .

 

Awesome above the clouds shots. that must have a blast to drop down into

 

Called my local Transition dealer this afternoon to see about availability on the Spire. Looking for the GX alloy build. They have two large frames in stock. One Deore alloy build and a GX carbon build. They said they would swap whatever I wanted from the carbon to the alloy to get me the exact bike I’m looking for. Impressive for them to offer to do that, but I’ve always had great service from them. They say they won’t be able to order additional Spires until mid to late summer 2022.

Going to go look at them tomorrow.

 

I'm heading out after work to cut the course for this weekend’s CX race. It would be cool if the brush cutter was 3” shorter so I could get the tailgate shut…

 

or if your bed was 12" longer

My oldest steed. Not much road time anymore
This one still gets some

My latest ride.

 

Bed Extender

 

Me looking down upon shortbed drivers

 

Well I wanted it short to match my... um... never mind.

 

your um...EGO!....

 

Well bought a new helmet. It was a tossup between the Proframe and Stage, I think I would’ve went Stage had the color I wanted been available and I could find a coupon code. Instead got the Proframe, bc they’re both top performers, but the Fox was a lot cheaper.

 

Yep.

 

I was in the same dilemma.

I ended up getting the proframe too. It's real nice.
Ordered from Draco bikes in Florida since they were the only place that had the color I wanted in stock.

 

A frustrated look as you are stuck high sided on a boulder as we are crawling over it.

 

I slid off of it with my gold plated sliders! In all seriousness, sliders are a must on a longbed

 

I have that exact same helmet and friggin’ love it. I had the luxury of trying on that one, the Fox DH model, and TLD enduro and DH models (can’t remember the names) all back to back. That one was leagues above the others for comfort; I didn’t realize it was possible for a full face helmet to be just as comfortable as a shell.
