A buddy of mine rode a Transition at Outerbike in 2016. He had no plans to buy a bike, but after that he bought a Transition within a couple weeks. He loves it.
I flew international on Delta with a bike.
The trip there was OK except for the foot shaped hole in the side of my bike box.
On the return trip, it looks like my bike box fell off the luggage tram and was dragged on the tarmac. Fortunately my frame was titanium or it would have been destroyed also.
Delta sucked.
WTF is with that? I think a bunch of us here have been in Austin a long time. It wasn't until the last few years that people ask how long you've been here like it's a competition. Who cares?
Ultimately what I was getting at was "we" assume a direction because it's obvious to us.
I very politely tried to let someone know it was one way and I was greeted with "who the fuck are you?"
That's when I noticed there are numerous entry points with no signage.
The most problematic area is the sidewalk. But I've come across people on the other side of Parmer going the wrong way. Makes things kind of exciting when hammering.
My first mtb had quick release and lawyer lips.
I forgot to check the front QR and I was practicing bunny hopping.
On my way home I bunny hopped something on concrete paving. Mid air and I noticed my front wheel stayed on the ground. Impact was painful.
I've always checked my wheels since then.
I'm headed to Durango for a 5 day guided trip. We start out at Hermosa and ride some of the Colorado Trail. I'm headed up early and plan on Phil's World
Back in my Ironman days, I found giving encouragement to others actually helped me.
You still have a couple weeks to get nutrition dialed in.
I found Infinit with a gel pack an hour worked well for me.
24 Hours of Rocky Hill night lap.
I stopped as a huge snake was slithering across the trail. Another rider sees it and hollers out, WOOHOO! SNAKE!" as he bunny hopped it.
I guess I did it wrong.
