My wife and I took one of ours dogs out and hiked Rim to Up and Over to DD today. It was primo. What little I saw of Picnic and PicnicX looked good but we didn't walk that side Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

I wouldn’t really have called Performance a local bike shop More of a bike shop that was locally located. Monkey Wrench, Peddlers, BSS, these guys are a LBS Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Correct .. I've been heavy handed in the scoopage and then I do tend to find my self drinking way more than I normally would. Diluting helped alot Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Skratch Labs for me The hydration mixes. No stomach issues . Less bonk than water. I don’t feel as wiped out after a hot summer ride as I do on water or some other mixes I have tried I personally don’t care for the tablets Good taste and decent price Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got the Dakine 5L pack last summer. The 1st couple rides it was odd but I quickly got used to it. It got that heat off my back in the summer-major plus. The bladder and bite valves are from the same company and same quality that Osprey uses. It holds 2 liters, and has an internal baffle that keeps the liquid from sloshing back and forth. Also the pocket for storage and the pocket for the bladder are separate with their own separate zippers. So unlike some other brands,, I can pull my bladder out and not have to jack around with the main storage area getting in the way. I have enough storage for my tools, a snack and keys and my Note phone I really like it a lot.

You gotta go to PVille,, its alot of fun. I am amazed at how much its a workout.. I get worked hard The Model C is a 24 and little longer ,, 20 felt too small to me

I see what you did there.. funny Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

TR--Where you riding this new toy? There is the park @ Pflugerville thats fun. There is a pump track over in BlockHouse I bought a Sunday Model C last year,, Way fun but an ass kicker

You riding around your hood or over @ Plugerville? There is a pump track that apparently gets no love over at Blockhouse. I bought a Sunday Model C last yr. Fun thing although I don't ride it nearly as much as I intended. And I was shocked at how exhausting it was and how sore I was after. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

This was his email to me in November We can probably stretch your warranty a little. ;-) The most common problem we see is a broken conductor inside the wiring harness right where it enters the light. This has been a common enough problem that Gloworm redesigned the harness to make it much more durable. Send your light in and we’ll replace the entire harness. Send the light head (with mount removed for shipping) to: Action LED Lights Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Back in November '16 I bit the bullet and purchased 2 sets of lights from Action LED Lights , a X2 and an X1 This was based on a lot of reading and if I recall Teamsloan mentioned the brand as a good one. Anyways bought these lights and have used ever since. Yes they are money but I believe that you get what you pay for normally and I am a fan of my house not burning down as the result of cheap Chinese batteries. So just want to mention this Action LED Lights because the lights are quality and all great but also because of the customer support. My 2 yr warranty expired Mid November '18 . About Thanksgiving time I crushed my wire somehow and my X2 setup stopped working. I shot them an email , after my warranty expired , Told them what I did and it was NOT a defect and that my lights were out of warranty. The response was a surprise since they said,, No problem, send us your light. I sent the X2 in and got it back a week later. All new wires and works even better. My point is this place did not have to go over and above like they did and they could have hosed me but stood behind their light and fixed me up. I just wanted to make mention of that since it is not necessarily the rule that companies do this but these dudes did. I'd seriously buy their product again if need be

Not to derail and this can be answered elsewhere but what is the correct response to that? It’s been told to me and my response with the eff bomb and douchebaggery was not well received Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Like my kid said to his mom--Fun Govenor

Funny, I recently changed things up and moved back to SPDs on my squish. Yep, No issues. Clip out just as easy as if I was riding flats on her again. It just isn't an issue for me , Shit happens though on flats, Shit happens in clipless. The hardest thing for me is actually clipping in with my right foot, not out. But that is just muscle memory and adjustments that I need to figure out. If you like clipless, great, If flats work for you great, whatever floats your boat.

How is Peddlers today? Headed over soon Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

So when there are posted meetups for places like Brushy , like the Thursday night rides like tonight, can it be communicated to them to maybe not do their scheduled meetup? I would like to assume that whoever was responsible would cancel or postpone according to conditions. But looking at pretty blue skies out my window , I can bet they will have a good turnout there tonight and thrash the trails more so. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

Or grab some chairs and hang out at the entrances. Be on hand to educate

Spoke to buddy today from the UK and asked him how they deal with all the rain and it the damage to trails when people ride when it is rainy or wet. Simple, there are essentially 2 types of trails you can ride. Bridleways , which are for horses. Anywhere there are BW trails there are of course horses which rip the hell out of trails. But you can ride , knowing they are rutted as hell. The other type is club trails or parks. You pay a fee and ride. The fees cover maintenance of those trails. So you can ride those trails no matter the weather. The trails are maintained by whoever owns them. You can ride all year no matter what. There is not really an issue with Bandit trails. Like he said, why would you want to cut an illegal trail? That would be wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Chief--I am interested in these , I can PM you
