Definitely Lakeway - there is a warmup loop, powerline bailout routes, and there has been a lot of changes in the last 6 months with new development.. nice poem!

oh wow... I had forgotten I'd even posted this. I don't think so, at least not for that price. I've upgraded it a bunch (DVO shock, fork, drivetrain, etc) and I still enjoy riding it.

My 18yo daughter raced for Lake Travis, the other 3 for Steiner Ranch (I coach with them as well). The reason they were on separate teams was just due to logistics and when they started (The Steiner team didn't exist when the oldest started).

The 4 of my kids (18, 16, 14, 12) that raced NICA this year have completely lost interest in riding when the season was cancelled. The next 2 younger ones (7 & 10 girls) are chomping at the bit and ask to go on rides often. So that's who I ride with now 🙂 I always try to encourage the older ones to come and invite them every time we ride but no such luck these days. The warmer weather is not helping much either.

Great thread!! I always felt the same way (bragging) about posting stuff about my awesome kids 🙂 As a father of 7 girls, (and a couple boys) I have tons of the cutest biking pictures and videos. I'll just put this one up for now... (also - I know she doesn't have a helmet or shoes on for that matter, but this is in the yard and we are pretty strict about that stuff when we go on pavement or trails) 20200529_182613.mp4

A few years ago descending into the canyon before Mt Lakeway I had one cross the trail about 20 yds in front of me. When I first saw it i though to myself "that is a REALLY big deer" then when it fully entered the trail and I saw its tail I registered what it was. It slowed down to look at me but thankfully kept going down into the canyon. for some reason I kept looking all around me the rest of the ride...

bump for the price drop

thanks, updated post (size Large BTW)

Fun fast capable bike, but I want to go back to aluminum (cheaper, more resilient to impacts, etc) Full carbon everything. Color Black/Grey Frame was replaced under warranty in June, 2017 front carbon wheel (DT Swiss xmc 1200) replaced via crash replacement in March 2018 chain stay replaced under crash replacement in Jan 2019 I can't find a link to the specs for this model year on YT's site anymore, but here is a review from that time period that contains all the relevant info: https://www.bikeradar.com/us/mtb/news/article/five-reasons-why-yts-jeffsy-is-one-of-the-coolest-29ers-out-there-46763/

If the front wheel is a 20mm thru axle, I am interested. How much you want for them?

Building up a full suspension bike for my son, does not need to be in perfect shape, but I'd prefer round. Looking to spend between $50 & $100. Rear wheel is 135mm QR but I've got one of those lying around, but I'd go for a full set if the price is right. Thanks!
