Default Huck the Fully Loop (Swap Meet)

Well at least the youngsters and Dell were huckin' it.

Sold a tire to Jose and that was it...but 11 of us had a good ride. To bad you other guys did not bring your bikes. It was fun riding with the young huckers. Only took a couple of pics.

At least we got George on a bike in the parking lot.

I wanted to do the ride but i had a guy comming to buy my other bike and I had to set it up for him . I ended up having to go home to get some parts.
I changed out the stem . By the time I was donr it was way to late.
How was the train was it messed up ? Mud? From what I saw the pics show that it was nice. I wanted to do the death drop lol But my seat was way way to high. Or maybe a quick release seat post clamp. I never chenge my seat for fullerton loop . But I should be able to when needed . This Yeti is new to me it feels great so far.<4rth pic up red shorts>
I want to get the gravity dropper seat post so I can change the seat on the fly . I'm not sure if those things hold up . I guess I will find out .

Nice jobs on those rolls, guys! I had a lot of fun today. Good turnout. I picked up elbow pads (frank), pedals (bret), and sold some shirts.

Good fun today!
Not much selling, but hanging out, meeting riders and watching the drops was fun.

Here are a few more:

Guero and Skip

Nice!

pretty good turnout yesterday! i didnt bring my bike so i was just a parking lot monkey. was cool to sit on a chumba or two and ride 1x1clyde's s/s as well as meet a few str folks whom i hadn't met yet.

items i sold:
truck rack: craigger (already was sold to him, but finally made the transaction)
kenda kinetics stick-e tire: alex
saris fork trap: mario
kona flat pedals: gouge

gouge, von-skip-a-dip, craigger and i hit wahoo's after the swap meet. for some reason it just doesnt taste as good as it does when eating there after a ride!

sounds like a good event. had some smaller items to swap...nothing too exciting (a few wireless odometers, tubes, used tires, bontrager cranks, brake calipers/levers etc), but was most interested in finally hooking up for ride. Unfortunatley son got sick and stayed at home. if this goes down again I am in

Good times fellas!

we should make it a repeat event, it was nice to put some faces to the names and talk bikes for a few hours. The loop was a riot -was that justin on a squish bike with gears?? - I had a noobie come along and he really enjoyed himself and the company, great job on setting it up Dean!
