DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Hey zach you care if I show up to this ? Its zach from the big bend trip !

 

4.88 nitro gears and harrop elockers ~$3,600 total. Lockers were $1,200 ea I think

 

Damn, where did you take it?

 

Well, I am taking that whole week off, but we may be going to Port A. However we don't have a beach house reserved.

So, Barnwell has trails and camp sites?

I like to ride.

 

Tandem auto is going to do the install, but I won't take it until after the fourth. Going hunting and need the truck

 

Damnit boy! I need to start planning the front end gearing and Locker situation soon

Yes sir it does! They have bunkhouses as well that hold 4 people and have AC and such. I'm headed there July 1st weekend.

 

Opinions? Not sure if I like the placement here. Won't really know until on a trail.... but feel like there is waaaay to much shadow the tire. However where it is placed in the wheel well is center but the farthest towards the outside while still on metal.





May place it here on this piece of flat metal instead as it actually lights up the trail more and could see rocks and such.



I am open to suggestions on placement!

Front is easier to place, rear is a little different with there not being a lot of metal to drill into...

 

Time and money man, that's all it takes. I don't have the time so I have to spend the $

I'm hoping to hit bmra Saturday then head to my lease around dusk.

 

Ha, I hear ya man. I hear ya.

This Saturday or July 1st?

 

The 1st

 

Hello guys, im new here and i would like to know a little bit more about this meet up about the bike trail do we go just for the bikes or to see tacomas??

 

Welcome!

Both. At this point there may be 20 or so tacomas there

 

Whaaat? Horshoe will absolutely close for rain.. its also a singletrack trail just like any other

Any DORBA/city sponsored trail will be close when its wet to prevent the trail from being torn up.

Trail status can be viewed at Dorba.org

 

Its because im not really interested in the bike trails i just want to go and see more tacomas and take some pics and all that

 

its a singletrack trail, just like any other dorba trail, im not sure why you are saying its a cement trail

 

Nevermind. Didn't realize they have dirt and cement called the same thing. I've been on the cement trail on roller blades.

 

Heard bikes...became interested.

then realized it was bicycles not motorcycles. Lame.

 

Ask then for a detailed repair estimate with parts. If you can just order the part to replace the leak it should be fairly easy with the proper charging equipment that @Suprajim54 has. I probably have the wrenches needed to remove install the new one as long as we can get to it fairly easily.

Thats going to be sweet! what tires are you going up to?

It does seam like the wheel is blocking too much light. I"ve never installed so I'm not sure where to move them to get more light around the tire.
Also Its looking liek i'm going to be out for Barnwell the 1st. I cant see myself wheeling without A/C in this heat.

Everyone one should show come out! I may show up without the Tacoma...

 

There are old cement roads that run through the center of trail, which makes this great for newbs or fat people. Can take short cuts out of the trail like the geico stuntman cheating death.

You can see the concrete path in the map below with the mtb trail in yellow

 

What is the mtb trail rated? I've been on the expert stuff on Northshore and nearly killed myself.
