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

the first step of recovery is admitting you have a problem.

 

That's a good looking rig! Before my Nomad I had a BLUR LT 2 that I powder coated purple

 

N+1!!!

 

Speaking of N+1, I shall be owning a downhill bike after tonight. Going to pick up a 2014 Devinci Wilson 26er after work. FREERIDE!!!

 

New (to me) bike night: 2014 Devinci Wilson. 26" is coming back!!!

 

Great video I haven't seen this one yet. I've heard from others being there in person is harder to enjoy it because you cant really follow the whole line of the rider. But I still want to go for the experience!

 

This is funny I'm originally from southern Idaho Jerome and Twin falls. But I moved to Seattle Galbraith is one of my favorite places to ride its bad ass Kona bikes actually does there testing there! Also bad ass set up truck and bike!!

 

hahahhahaha I get the feeling people really need me to move my fender.. This is pretty funny.

 

Downhill in Florida? Yes. GoPro videos to follow

 

DOPE!!

 

Haha this is great.

 

I’ll be going and camping at the event with a few buddies if anyone wants to get a group together. Leaving from Long Island

A little far for me to travel but I'm sure it will be dope!

 

It's true to a point. We could see 90% of the run except the last landing where a few runs were ruined. Still a great time!

 

Thats more than I would have thought...

 

Took the big bike to the Trailside Bike Park in PC this weekend to get the shocks dialed in. I am amazed at the hits a DH bike can take and it doesn't even register to the rider!

Word of warning, shaded "north shore" gets super slippery in the mornings this time of year! My warmup run's wall ride ended in minor disaster

The offending wall ride:

 

Went on a recent solo vacation (left the wife at home, and had a quiet, perfect drive) to Colorado and Utah for some riding. Thought you’d like to see this one.

Bike: Yeti SB5c

 

North or South UT? Both have great riding!

 

True. This time it was to Moab

 

Anybody here build their own wheels?

I have VelocityUSA in town and they are great builders that I have used several times this year alone, but the wheel building is the only bicycling dark art I have not tackled. I am looking for a book or reference beyond youtube. I already sourced a Park tools truing stand, currently looking at a dishing tool and tensiometer, and I hope to build my first wheel set or two over the winter.
