  1. Hitler was on a shitload of drugs.
  2. Kid songs killed me. I can't tell you how many times perfectly good rides were ruined by some cartoon's theme song on repeat in my head. I don't wear headphones on every ride, but I do carry them just in case now. I had a single speed that I used to tow the kids around in a trailer. The eccentric bottom bracket creaked to the exact rhythm of "Down By the Bay."
  3. Good to know. I have the autosag Specy. It always felt too stiff, so I'd just end up sagging it in the old fashioned way. I'll try the release-bounce-release method. One release was clearly not enough for me.
  4. Dude! 4 consecutive posts? You are killing your reputation quotient.
  5. Confession: I sacrificed a goat to the rain gods back in early Sept. Sorry.
  6. Adjusting sag is simple. Just loosen you belt a bit - and boom - instant street cred. Pants around your ankles? You've loosened too much.
  7. I build and maintain websites for a day job, and a few of those are for associations. These are absolutely the worst. They want it all and want it cheap (or even free). "Oh yeah, let's have a blog and forum and a calendar and a facebook/twitter/instagram feed and a members only section and can it integrate with our member management system and each month we'll do a Member Spotlight and a "download area" and all of this content will be produced for free by our volunteers. Oh, but let's not forget to run every little decision through a full committee review." That said, ARR should have some web presence. That is evident by the tone of this thread - even if it is just basic (static) club info and to direct people to the other content. Social media is way easier to push out content, but I think most people still look for a website first.
  8. Could it be that this 4 month span is for the "introductory rate", but the pass lasts for a full year? I would be silly to boast year round lift-assist riding but then set a 4 month "season". I know it sure doesn't read that way, but it could be poor phrasing.
  9. There has been a surprising amount of El Paso talk on here lately. Is anyone going to be riding there over this next weekend? I'm heading there with the family Sat - Tues. I wasn't planning on hauling the bike because it will be a short trip with Christmas and in-laws and the drinking that allows me to remain sane around the in-laws, but if any of y'all were planning to be there too, I wouldn't mind getting out in the mountains a little.
  10. So, he just replied directly from you ad with those comments? No previous discussion on these items? Yeah, I agree with you then and sorry to throw doubt your way. That dude's an asshole.
  11. I'd be interested in what the conversation was leading up to those replies. I mean, you do have a history of rubbing people the wrong way.
  12. Have they taken care of that spider infestation yet?
  13. That kid is either yelling at it or trying to take a bite out the saddle. Devil's Advocate: I would love build my kids' love for mountain biking (and I'm trying). The problem is that I am selfish. When I have the time to ride, I want to fucking shred. I ain't got no time to be waitin' for a scrawny kid to play catchup. Sure, I bet it is expensive, but if I had deeper pockets I'd buy one for my kids.
  14. Hard to say. Once the machines collectively decide to start killing, it will happen very quickly. This scooter thing just furthers our reliance on the machines, making it that much easier for them to destroy us. It will happen so quickly, we won't see it coming. You: "Hey Alexia, what's the weather going to be like today?" Alexia: "It's going to rain blood puny human."
  15. They will go away after humanity is overtaken and enslaved by the machines. After all, why would a robot need an electric scooter?
  16. You overlooked one factor. The average fat/lazy American will always pay $5 to avoid walking somewhere.
  17. Perfect! I'm a XS/S/XXL in helmet/shirt/penis size. Not really. I'm a solid S across the board.
  18. Are you asking about drug testing policies?
  19. First comment is solid gold: "If you want to find out more info on these supplements that strip the body of fat, please don’t start by googling fat strippers ????"
  20. I firmly believe this happens at least once on every ride.
  21. Don't get discouraged. The ability to count to 5 is not actually a requirement.
