I forgot who on here sparked the idea but last weekend we did our third family cook day. Idea is that each of us draws for a meal. BF. Lunch. Dinner and desert. The kids both have really stepped up. They have to find what they want to cook. How it might be done. Obtain ingredients (us) And then cook it. Serve it and clean the mess up. My wife has Celiac disease so of course everything has to fit her needs. We are only allowed to advise and not help them. Been fun and a lot of laughs and learning. They have always cooked but this is above the normal stuff. My girl did from scratch Ravioli And also did a CreamPuff pastry with a cinnamon custard with fruit. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Pictures dont do it justice

The transition in the picture from the right side where that dude is to the left side and then the beautifully harsh left down is something else for sure. wow, great job

By the way.. the transition is scary with that thing Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Wall ride and far right drop

Kind of strangely cool when my teen daughter comes home tonight and starts showing me pics of Snail Trail on her IG and TikTok. She isn't even a biker and it somehow fell into her world because its cool and she wanted to show me and asked if I knew of it. Girl if you only knew... Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Wait.. doesn't that whole area flood? Just a couple years ago there was bad flooding right? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

@Barry -- what forks did you end up running on the CH ? If I recall you noodled around with changing them right , to some carbon? Maybe that wasnt you

Champions League starts tomorrow !

Wait. Why? I don't get it Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Sounds to me like this is an awesome adventure and you guys will make some great memories. You will get a ton of advice but it is based on the experiences of the person commenting, doesnt mean you need to haul all your possessions with you though. When my kids were younger and we traveled to where ever we almost always took too much stuff we thought we needed and just never used. In the end we did not need all that crap. After a lot of miles and trips we learned to travel simple and no one cared. Live in the moment without the creature comforts or trappings of life. The basics will get you by fine. And Yea ,, report back this sounds pretty cool.

I can use them please Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

My T Handle hex set are invaluable to me. I second the torque wrench. Chain whip. A good stand because crappy ones are no fun. Figure out what you need to pull apart your BB and get that specific tool since there are different kinds. Once you get rolling you will know what you actually need and not need.

Fixed It This is such a simple solution. Road trip - day one is go to somewhere near sea level. You tell her you have a reservation for a week. Then, before you leave have a buddy call you pretending to be the resort to say the resort had to close due to 'Rona. Tell you are so sad she couldnt get her way, even make yourself get a little teary eyed. Then goto New Mexico.

I love my hoody a lot

I've always been confused with the carbon paste. I read it isnt needed but also it is Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

If you look through here https://cedarparkatlas.com/ there is some great data and if used in conjunction with the Wilco Tax site you can see there are a lot of owners who own what we ride in SN. Not shocked and I personally dont see the area that we use freely as a long term place to ride.

You know some of the predicted rain over the weekend would have been nice on the trails today. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I agree with AB and Mac. SS is alot of fun and I rarely need or miss gears. I took my HT and lost the gears after 1 ride and went 32x19. I've since move to 32x16. It is great on the trails. Got bored and added the drops and switched to mechanical brakes. Bike is so much more fun to ride. So simple to maintain and experiment with. The drops I chose are wider than most and I get less fatigue on longer rides. I still have the flat bar and stem intact with the brakes attached so I can easily swap back if I ever want. Fun project and I am super pleased to get away from the norm to change things up. Ride it alot at BC but it's at home all over something like SN Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
