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

Speaking of trail etiquette, one of these beauties just arrived at my door:

ohhhhh thats nice!

 

Thats a nice bell.

Honestly my first thought when I saw this post was “here we go again” after my spur bell post kicked off two pages of spicy bell talk lol.

 

Finally got around to installing my decked system so here's the new setup!

 

Went to the Santos fat tire festival, first time being able to ride in Florida, and really outside of East Tennessee. Interesting to see how others mountain bike with no elevation. That trail system is a lot of fun.

 

I was there for a bit on Saturday, mainly at the Vortex and Indigo flow. If you're ever back in Florida you gotta check out Alafia! Santos is probably the best trail system in FL, but Alafia has some pretty unique features and surprisingly flowy trails.

 

@ginseng27 and I social distanced ourselves on some singletrack today.

@paleh0rse your supposed kingdom was tasty today.

 

Where do you ride? There are plenty off grid trails near me, in N Raleigh.

 

There’s no way I’m staying in the house for three weeks while all the schools and the peoples flatten all the curves.

The kids are pumped; BLM land, here we come.

 

I'm in Wake Forest, so anything and everything near Falls Lake (OC, NL, Forest Ridge), The Reservoir, Shady80, Crabtree, etc. Are there other bandits near N. Raleigh that I didn't list? If so, please shoot me a pm.

 

I think I maybe will get sent to Alafia’s bike festival too. Everyone I spoke to said the same thing.

 

Its a good time. Smaller trail network at Alafia, but definitely some of the best riding in the state.

 

Have you made it to Alafia yet?

 

Hmmm, we ride same neighborhoods. Nice.

 

I've never heard of this bell. I use the Timber bell which I get a lot of hikers thanking me for while I’m riding. The constant ringing can be annoying but I turn it off once I get further out and there is likely to be less people. Does the spur bell also free ring?

 

Have you been to Carter road? They have some pretty fun trails and it's free as well.

 

Not sure if the Oneup or Yakima will for the square bars, but you can always try out the Yakima Frontloaders at a local REI or sports-equipment store. They've been great for me for many years.

Spurcycle bells are the best! Make a lovely sound

 

@Gunshot-6A , you should have come buddy....

Social distancing at its finest

 

So jelly right now! Colorado Springs has this weird fog thing going on and I have my kids because they are out of school so I'm screwed either way for riding.

 

Nice to see that people are still hitting the original entrance drop on Amasa.
