Colorado B.S. Thread

Speaking of bikes.. anyone have a recommendation to get mine tuned in the Parker/Castle Rock area? Springs even if it's on the north side.
I have a Salsa Horsethief GX1. Haven't ridden a ton since Moab a few years ago but planning on cruising around with the kiddos with those sweet shotgun seat things

I stopped in there to see if they tuned bikes, haven't used them yet, but I really liked the place and the person working was super friendly. They didn't even judge me for having a glorified Huffy.

 

Hahaha could have been a fun but no, i took the grate off to sand and repaint. Threw some stuff to cover the hole until the grate was ready to go back in.

 

check out the macride! Love mine for the kids

 

The 100s are probably much more tame than where I normally sit up in the slums.

Went to one a few years ago and the Wild spanked us. We walked over to Brooklyn's to drink our sorrows away and 4 Wild fans came in chanting to a bar full of depressed Avs fans. Couple people "accidentally bumped them" and the bartenders told them to shutup. They finally got the point. Same game, a group of 8ish started a huge commotion up on the 300s. Probably 15 or so total fans got kicked out.

I've also had them get into an altercation with our friends mom. That was the line.

 

Ya he was great to have around and I'm lucky to have had him.

Also I go by Kira (or wolf is fine as always) now

 

@303tacoma how is Suki doing???

 

Shes good!!
still training training training.
I went back to the basics with loose leash..
It is so difficult to change things the have been self rewarding for so long.
It takes her awhile to get that stuff
New stuff she does pretty well..

 

Got it

 

ahhh the loose leash stuff is fun to retrain. We're actually going through that too. She does a lot better with it but like u said those long term habits are hard to break.... lots of little deli meat pieces for training

 

I get chicken thighs and grill them..
Less salt, but whatever works.
Oh and hot dogs

 

Has anyone ever bought/used a weboost before? Experience? Pleasure/displeasure on the matter? Considering investing in one down the road for working while camping purposes.

 

I only work on my own bikes, so I don’t know any shops down that way. I’ve got a couple of buddies down in the springs that ride though. I’ll reach out and see if they have any reco’s

 

there is a used one at the REI Denver garage sale section …
My review is that people expect a lot more out of them from not understanding what they do… then are greatly disappointed.

 

yep, training treats from the store are way too expensive for what they are lol. A 99 cent pack of hot dogs cubed small works great instead

I never considered doing chicken...how much do you go through for training?

 

Iget the bone in cuz theyre inexpensive
There is usually 4 in a pack
I grill 2 for a couple training session
This is a very high reward, so dont burn it out..Use it with training treats or hot dogs.
Shred it off the bone.
You can wad it in your hand a let them nibble it, after you click or use your marker word.
Its a little messy but they love it

 

I think messy stops being a concern the second you start walking around with a ziplock full of doggie snacks in your pocket anyways

 

I use a fanny pack lol
You can stash clean poop bags in the pockets

 

gotta stay strapped

 

Great FYI. Thank you sir.
