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

Been a while since Ive been in here. Have some post ride Arizona sunset+taco+bike shots. Shakedown of the new road bike on Bartlett Lake Road in Carefree AZ.

Strava on Apple Watch user too. There's always going to be variance, but using that consistently at least lets you track it the same way.
I've used the workout app and Strava simultaneously too, and it's a way different mode of counting calories. Strava seems closer to reality, but definitely lower.
If you do use it, get a case. My face is all scratched up, but without the case it would have cracked easily. Lost one to the simply bumping it against my stem.

 

Anyone know anyone that would be interested in an '18 Fuel EX 9.9 frame?

Price isn't super firm, but not a ton of wiggle. More just testing the waters as I have no real need to sell, just interested in changing things up.

Ah yes, the Pinkbike BST. Interested in a trade for a half eaten bag of beef jerky and a pair of cutoff shorts?

 

Thats not too far off of the trade offers I've received. Along with the 'Will you take $1k shipped?' purchase offers.

I'm no dummy. The '18 fuel ex isn't the latest, greatest, lowest, slackest beast out there. But I'll ride it till the bearings fall out before selling it for some of the offers I've received.

 

Got a Bedrock Bags Sinbad coming for the Sentinel. Didn't realize how much I underappreciated the frame bag on my bronson until I didn't have one.

First guided ride with some clients this weekend. Has been 60+ degrees all week but of course on the day of our tour the high is mid-30s...hell of an intro to Knoxville for these people

 

It always be like that, don't it?

Can't tell you how many powder days have happened here on the day after I drop my friends/family off at the airport.

 

where is this? when I am in Santa Cruz, we surf Pleasure Point in the morning and ride in the afternoon. Thanks

 

PM me to talk about the frame.

Is it the 16.5 - 17.5 Medium frame?

 

Congrats buddy! Stoked you're getting it up and running.

 

sorry for the late response. Im running a 34 19. still get a lot of chain slap.

 

First race of the season. Single speed marathon. Finished 8th out of 20.

Gravel road set up on my niner bsb.

 

Well, we finally found our deep freeze! The winter bike is back out for the weekend. I’m headed to the owners lake house to do some work. There is a State Park accross the street with IMBA trails that are sick.

 

Thanks, friend. I am both nervous and excited. Make a trip to Pisgah soon. You can stay at our place

 

Finally got the dj built up. Specialized originally listed these months ago with a ship date of late early December, which then kept getting pushed back. Think ive been waiting since Oct or Nov. Then there were only 12 available to ship last week - so I had to hope our order got in before they sold out. So much more at home on this compared to a BMX.

 

I'll definitely take you up on that, been wanting to check out Pisgah for a long time. Might be a bit though, as we might have a move coming next summer.

 

Looking for beginner MTB suggestions, 5’10” 180lb 32 inseam. As well as a hitch rack.

 

Salsa Timberjack is a solid bike. What’s your price point?

 

In my opinion, a hardtail 29er of some sort is probably the best starter config for anyone/anywhere. What's your real budget?
