    Worst Fully Loop Ride, But Got World's Record

    ....came back to the parking lot tonight and everyone was gone. I think it was around 9:25. I win the world's record for the slowest ride. Nobody wants to hear excuses but here goes. 1. My 2010 Stinky Deluxe went on a diet by spending some $$ with lighter tires, lighter cassette>PG980, sold...

    History Of Fullerton Loop

    OMG---that dude pictured from that 1985 article was 42, now he's like going to be 73. I wonder if he still rides?

    Are you following the rear on the group rides with your 26er?

    what model WTB is that? I know one thing for sure, the Nevegals in the rear are horrible, I call them Never-rolls.

    The price of poaching

    Too bad they didnt ride their 26er's then they wouldnt be much in a hurry to get them back. Big Group rides like that should have someone to at least know the perimeters. Oh well, first world problems.

    RIP Glenn Frey

    Eagles were one of my favorite bands in high school. Hell will freeze over now. RIP. Good music, good memories.

    Are you following the rear on the group rides with your 26er?

    Almost on only 100% of group rides, I am thought as the sweeper because everyone on their 29er's and 27.5's are handing my ass to me. Maybe I ride that 42lb Stinky Deluxe? I don't know. What I do know is that I get psyched out looking at the larger diameter wheels in front of me kicking my ass...

    Dog Bite

    ...right....Fido gets to keep this tire as a backyard toy, putting a new tire on. Ugh, I don't like walking back :)

    Dog Bite

    What are your thoughts? Trash it or ride it until the bubble gets larger? Its a small bulge the size of a mosquito bite. Caught the dog gnawing on this Continental Speed King 26" tire. The bike was in the garage and I rarely ride it but the tire is only 3 months old. BTW- he didnt pop the tube...

    Sram PG980 Cassette

    The 980 has 2 bodies, a spacer and two cogs....I've read reviews on the 990 and for whatever reason, they wear out faster. I'd actually love to get XTR cassettes but can't seem to plug the trigger on spending $219 for one.

    Sram PG980 Cassette

    So this isn't the latest and greatest but it is Sram's "XT" version of a cassette and I found it a B*tch to install. Its a picky mofo that needs the splines to be put exactly in place in order for the thing to be clamped down by the end cap. I thought I had it set in correctly twice and...

    New Made in Germany Goodness...

    climbing steep hills on this thing (XTR 11-32 cass) almost made my head pop off my neck, so I went to my LBS (yes I am loyal to the fray) and pussy'd out and bought the Praxis Works 11-40 to go along with the 42/30T

    The bike is a nice gravel bike and asphalt commuter.

    Minion II DHR vs Highroller II

    I have both tires on different bikes and I find the Minion II DHR rolls faster despite the tread on the Highrollers look more faster rolling. What do you prefer?

    Last person riding 26" bikes?

    Nice! Ahhh 1996. I was still floundering around living in an apartment with $3000 to my name, making $16 an hour. Today I'm making $17 an hour thanks to the "Man" and his greed.. Freelancing with dot coms like BuzzFeed, The Wrap, Dose, Hollywood Reporter to name a few that you like clicking...is...

    YETI SB5C - STOLEN

    Good thing: 1) Its certainly NOT going to be sold to a pawn shop as they arent stupid enough not to research the bike's worth, sees its been stolen and not call the cops... 2) also it will stick out like a sore thumb in cheapie ass Craigslist unless some tard buys it thinking he got the deal of...

    YETI SB5C - STOLEN

    Damn! ....BUT why in the hell was it in the garage? The msrp on the SB5C is $6600 to $9,000 depending how it was spec'd. I'd leave that bad boy in the house or in chains in the garage. Thats a lot of money! I hope its recovered! Its worth more than a dirt bike.....

    Commuter w/ Mtn componants...your thots

    Ugh....despite not selling 2 of my bikes on eBay yet, I pulled the trigger and ordered this bike that can do light trail (putting Maxxis Highroller II's on) and saving the stock tires for road riding (despite it only having 44t big ring) It reminds me of the carbon SC Highball with XTR but no...
