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

Who has a shock pump in the Bay?

 

Sweet that they warrantied it. Super rare for that to happen. I'm on a few new sets of Maxxis tires, all good, no QC issues thus far.

Dude, post it on CO Craigslist. You'll sell it fast.

 

Man, I don’t want to talk about it. I didn’t have anyone to b***h with, but that’s okay. I recorded it so everyone can hear (foul language) and see this goof.

First time on MTB that wasn’t in my backyard or driveway and first cardio of the year haha.

I’ll post video later, it’s not pretty, but I want to see or document hopefully some improvement.

 

You did good Grasshopper.

 

Nice ride man!

 

It would've been a whole lot better if I wouldn't have been like oh it's a black, anything too bad I'll walk.
Front end bouncing everywhere, don't have gloves so hands slipping, it just wasn't a good idea for a first ride lol.

 

I feel your pain! I’ve been offered trades for THC, held it for a week and was then offered a grand less than I was asking. Finally sold the Full Stache this afternoon, for asking price. The guy couldn’t have been nicer or happier. Hang in there!

 

Our Thursday night brewery ride and as usual I crashed.

Was that before or after hitting the brewery?

Glad you’re ok, that could have been life altering.

 

Well that’s a good feeling.

 

I’m sure it’s been discussed a million times but there are a lot of pages to go through haha.

what’s everyone’s favorite budget home bike stand? I have the cheap Aldi one and it’s been fine but I’m ready for a better one.

 

Check out the Feedback sports stands on Amazon. They make some quality (see: equal or better than that blue brand you’ve all heard of) stuff, for fair prices.

 

1 pint pre-gaming before the ride and 1 pint after.

 

I just picked up Feedback Sports sport-mechanic stand, from REI, and it seems good.

 

Scroll back to page 1095.

Just like Steve I also picked up Feedback Sports sport-mechanic stand.

 

Put in about 50 to 55 miles over the past 3 days in telluride! Gotta say putting that many miles in and not crashing a single time, INCLUDING the bike park, really boosted my comfort level on the new stumpy. Some of the grassroots trails around telluride really were some of the best single track I’ve touched.

 

I'm currently on military orders (with the bike) in Southern AZ, but I'm returning home to Raleigh in a few weeks. If someone in NC wants it, I'll deliver it after I get home or ship it to them from here. Either way works for me.

 

Not a bad idea. Done.

 

Rode up to the Yadkin River (NC) today on my gravel bike.... no taco involved in this one!

 

My favorite bike stand? I lean my Jamis Carbon fiber bike against my boat in the garage.
