Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Eh maybe just buy and sell mine. They are still at less than 15k miles

 

How much are you hoping to sell yours for? Then @skidooman can check with his dad to see if he's interested in buying them. When he checks with his dad he can ask how much he wants for the Dakars and if they are the medium duty pack.

If it works out, you can park the trucks next to each other and swap the left spring packs then the right spring packs and you don't have to trip over them in you garages, which is worth at least $75 piece that you can pay me instead of paying a co-pay for x-rays on jacked up toes.

 

Anyone know the conditions of dog valley road into boca stampede ? Planning a gravel ride to Truckee and back via Tp trail.

 

I meaning I can't arge that too much..

 

Anyone local have a long range fuel tank on a 2nd Gen that I could take a look at?

 

Biking through the caldor burn zone is kinda eerie

 

Actually surprised the ground isn’t black. Hiked through a recent burn zone In Yosemite once and we were making footprints in ash while small flowers were blooming. Really cool stuff

 

Caldor was 2 years ago now so that would be why. This area trails didn’t open up for 90% or last summer but it’s had time for the ash to walk away. Abt 500 feet down there’s actually a ton of stuff growing again, underbrush that’ll light like a match I’m sure…

 

It always trips me out when I go from traveling in dense forest to burn scar. Definitely eerie.

 

We're you able to get a price?

 

Good to go. Dog Valley is already dusty. A couple weeks ago there was a ton of run off at Stampede where Stampede Dam road T’s into Dog Valley Rd. The two small wood bridges were almost to the point of being washed out.

 

I'll send you a pm.

 

Yep, found out today. Really fun day of riding.

 

Your bike is missing the parts that let riding be proper fun

 

Agreed. It's missing an engine....

 

I let all my motos go a few years back. And for the right reasons. I do miss my adv bikes. No way I would ride in Reno now. Way tonfucking wild especially the agro drivers

I had lots of fun. I don’t ride motos anymore . Had to give it up. Conditions were really good too.

 

I meant the suspension. The squishy parts. That way you could ride shit like this.

 

those bikes are heavy af what do you have 180mm of travel front? 200>?

 

Mine only 150 f 140 rear. I can ride that stuff. But the bike gets overwhelmed. I’m abt to buy a 170 front 160 rear that’s got way better angles for descending. The new bike is gonna be roughly 32 ~ pounds. It’ll be great for northstar downhill park days too. Any bigger of a bike than that and pedaling uphill Is inefficient. New full suspension bikes pedal insanely well, plus my new one will have a 3 position compression dial for on the go adjustment as well as a 4th position for full lock out. Which means those fire road/green trail climbs I’ll feel like I’m on a short travel bike or a hardtail

 

DH still was never my cup of tea. I like long cross country riding. perfect on a gravel bike with drops.
