Damn, there is a ton of stuff I havent even ridden yet. Didnt even know there was stuff east of peddlers. 

Thanks for those maps. 

Well, cant say they aren't passionate about what they do. 😄😄

Larry, what did she get?

Stumpy. After riding mine....the Fuse wasnt as nice. 🤣🤣

Kinda like the things though. Sure looks fun

Peddlers was really nice. Great work on the new stuff. Was good getting out today with GF, she got to ride her new squishy

Ya, thanks Greg. Have been wondering where to actually park. 

****SOLD****

Very cool. 

Sweet, that's a good module

Playing drums is another great stress reliever. My home "quiet" kit. Haha

What gets me is that crap is steep. Gopro doesnt do it justice. Holy hell

Seeing as how I'm a nutjob when it comes to a messy cockpit I'd love this. Maybe when it trickles down to GX, NX

In my 20's.....yes. Now at 49......hell no

NLand was sold to a Kelly Slater's company in December.  https://www.tetongravity.com/story/surf/kelly-slater-wave-co.-buys-austins-nland-surf-park.  One thing to keep in mind about surfing:  I grew up on Sunset Cliffs, right across the street (literally) from the ocean.  I could be on my board in the water in <5min.  Still, I would've done a surf park if they had one.  Surfing in is highly variable.  Conditions depend on wind, tides, seasons, storms, etc.  You can go sit in the water for an hour without seeing a good wave.  When conditions are right, you've got to go then and now.  It's not like MTB, where you say trails are G2G, I'll go after work.

Surf parks offer the perfect wave (smooth, tubed, with a good break) consistently and on demand.  They provide the type of break you either have to wait for that perfect offshore day, or go to Hawaii, to surf.

I'm from PB, sure do miss those days 

I almost bought a stumpjumper ST. Had same concerns with our trails not needing anything more. Went with reg Stumpy 27.5 and feel it's the perfect  amount of travel. 

Damn,  that is very good. Wish I knew more about doing stuff on the web. It would be cool to see something like that

RPR is on the list of considerations for some day soon. Only snag is I may want to stay Sunday night wherever I choose to go and the RPR policy specifies camping being available only for Friday and Saturday nights.

Flat Creek is looking promising. Watching for Jimmy to update the conditions.

Haven't been to either of those places in a long time and both have new-to-me trails to explore.

 

I'm pretty sure we are going to RPR Sunday for sure. We've got to ride before I loose it

If they dont do anything. Nail polish, sharpie and you wont know its there.

Agreed

Damn, hate hearing this. Makes my arm hair stand up just thinking about it.

I feel bad. GF ask me this morning " I just bought my bike, when do we get to ride". Haha

I'm taking her on an urban neighborhood ride now. It will have to do

Was just looking at lights. I'll check these out

Actually, the majority of people are not "... just f@cking stupid."

But most people are certainly selfish... And that's where most problems in a community come out of.

Understanding this...

The need then is to try and make the matter one of personal concern for those trying to be reached.

It's in this that the above billboard messages fail. Truth be told, it's where most advertising/marketing efforts fail.

And a sign is akin to a billboard.

And there are very specific design principles that should be applied to billboards/signs in order for them to be successful at what they are intened for.

Nope, most are stupid

I have gallons of Mineral 150 that we use in refrigeration compressors if any of you want to try it. 😁😁
