Looks cool.

Do you need any help with a website? Let me know!

Damn, I do. I'm having a simple one made now, but definitely want something better.

PS- tell us a little about what your doing and what customers your looking for so that I (we?) can send over referrals.

I'm doing Commercial Refrigeration , HVAC

Mainly walk-in freezers, coolers, Reach-ins,  ice machines, and HVAC.

Restaurants,  c-stores, liquor stores, etc.

I've been doing HEB, Target, Walmart Refrigeration for 18 years. Looking forward to all of this. 

Pretty exciting, yet very scary. Today is first day as owner. Just got wrapped truck back.

Definitely agree with padded gloves. Made it worse for me too

Thank you both. Really badass you guys did that

Just rode Peddlers and who is out there with the family digging.......Ronan. Damn, cant thank you enough.

I had my last car for 18 years and never got to 85k miles.  That being said, you only live once and I think that getting from point A to point B should be part of the experience.  I opted for a fun car when I had to get another one and saved accordingly.  Picked up a Focus RS last year and slapped my One-up on the back.  Getting to the trail head is something I enjoy and when I get back to the parking lot I don't dread heading back out on the road. 

If you don't like driving, you're waiting for the days of autonomous vehicles or Lyft drivers so you can surf the web while you're whisked to your destination.  Me, I'm using that right foot to burn some dinosaur bones and give me that satisfaction that comes with a machine doing something that you can feel in your soul.  If that sounds weird, you won't get it and I'm cool with that.  I know that I dread having to get an electric car for those reasons.

Agreed,  went from 4x4 trucks for 20yrs to my VW GTI last year. Damn, didnt know driving could actually be fun

Hell yes. Sweet

Please, please dont rain too much. Only day off is tomm.

I would also be happy to contribute!

Agreed. No reason whatsoever you should foot the bill for all of that. How can I get you some cash?

Sooo badass. Damn, cant wait to ride next month when its dry 😉😉

Ive ridden with the lumbar a few times. It's not bad now. I did play around with position and seems to be ok on lower back now. 

Still prefer backpack though. The Raptor 10 firs really nice compared to my old hydrapak

We will be there

GF's first ever mtb ride was on Peddlers. She gets excited everytime we ride. Will be taking her 10yo soon. Just bought her a little hotrock.

I've had gopro on and shes excited to ride where momma rides. 😁😁

I'm sure they do too.

And I'd like to learn from them as they do it...

Hence my interest.

Shoot... Folks around here are super sensitive.

I was kidding. Hence the wink

I'm sure they know what their doing. 😉

In a pinch, and when without my beloved Tri-Flow, I've used 3n1 oil too.  I find it a bit gunky and attracts a lot of dirt grime, but it seems to do the job and keeps my drivetrain quiet.  **Note- those same comments many people will attribute to my Tri-Flow choice for lube also.

PS- when at HH shop, I'd have to say the most requested and used lube for my customers was Rock-n-Roll Gold.  I always kept it in stock due to demand.

Something about that Tri-flow smell......puts me in a happy place. 😁

All I've ever used.

Wife and i are looking at a tandem this weekend, so there may be another group in the tandem race.  We'll see how it fits.

I'm not sure my relationship could survive. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Why would you even post something like this? I dont get it

As has been said - trail is the same.  It will however give faster times and be an even better experience to ride after KOM is done.  

We rode yesterday. Pretty damn badass now, cant imagine what it will be. Very excited

Badass

Ah, the good ol Manitou fork. Had the 3 on my first stumpy. Thought it was the shick back then. Elastomers and all

I'm looking for a 92 Stumpjumper now

GF does use profanity when I take her on trails above her pay grade. Shes like a sailor back there. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

We just bought a kids bike yesterday,  but damn
