Welp... i haven't been to the thursday fully loop ride in a couple of weeks because my totally sweet ironhorse has been mostly out of commission... broken spoke and problems with my chain skipping a bunch... super frustrating...

so i'm wondering if there is anyone out there that might be willing to help me with a bike to ride this thursday...?

i'll treat it better than my first born child (if i had kids)

im about 6'4"... ride a 21.5" frame...
thanks everybody.... see you thursday hopefully

Man, would you look funny on one of my bikes!

Rob · 07-15-2007, 07:26 PM

Bring it by Adrenaline, I'll get that bike riding like new!

Dino Brown · 07-16-2007, 05:45 PM

Don't worry--- we will find you a bike by Thursday!

Ryan, youve got PM

I never thought I'd see the day that an Iron Horse would need help????

Dino said besides the unique "self-righting" feature (weebles wooble but they don't fall down) the allmighty horse was capable of self-regeneration. Spokes would magically heal overnight like a lizards tail. Chain crunching would cease with a slap of the old horse's hind quarters.

The end is near!

Dino Brown · 07-17-2007, 05:55 PM

OTHRIDER--- Hmmm, that name sounds very familiar. Hmmm.... I think we used to ride with that guy. I think he gave up mountain biking to play BINGO.

On to the Horse.

1) Ricky was raised near the beach. I WARNED him- while the frame was immune to destruction, spokes and chains would be eaten alive by the salt air.

2) He swapped out the wheelset that originally came on The Horse because (in his word) they were too fast. The wheels/spokes that failed were your typical high end wheelset- not Iron Horse factory issue.

3) Ahhh, forget it. You wouldn't believe me anyway.

Othridr--- Will we see you on Thursday? Didn't think so!!! Excuses excuses!

SAR_boats · 07-17-2007, 06:09 PM

So have you dropped it off at Adrenaline yet?

Dino Brown · 07-17-2007, 06:15 PM

Boats----- 2007 Gold Kickstand Award... I love it!

Ricky- how 'bout a bike update?

OTHRIDER · 07-17-2007, 06:36 PM

No excuses - I had a great time in Parker soaking up the 118-degree days. Pacifico's by the case; eye candy for us old men and lots of ride time in the boat.

Plus, I got to wake skate with my kids for the last time this summer.

Sorry the Loop got bumped for a week. See you and the Horse Battalion on the Loop!
