Just got the email they aren't opening until the 28th to keep an eye on the fires.
QuoteAngel Fire Bike Park Operations Update
Bike Park Crew,
We are delaying the opening of our summer activities for one week, until May 27th, or until we get more information about the current fire situation in our area. Angel Fire Resort fully supports the efforts of the fire crews, first responders and law enforcement that are protecting our community. Our goal at this point is to assist with their effort, and to keep members and guests out of harm's way. We will be communicating any and all operational news, including updates to the resort opening date, as soon as we have further information.
We are so thankful for the incredible response of the firefighting teams who have brought manpower and resources to aid in the defense of our mountain home.- 1

Now $1400 with the dropper. Still don't ride it enough, so it needs to go.

You can go to the bottom and change the theme.
Invision is uglier, but has buttons, there is also the dark theme that seems to have them.

I bought a big Quincy air compressor on the cheap (er) from them. Overall I agree it is mixed like RedRider said. They carry a few items that are harder to find, mainly in the large equipment category.

Bit of a rant here, but what happened to plain old velcro straps for bike shoes? Everything is BOA or a ratchet these days. Velcro straps are lighter, simpler, and can't break if smashed on a rock. Or there are laces that can get caught up in the drivetrain. A lot of times on lace shoes, it seems like they add a velcro strap to secure the laces as much as any sort of retention purposes.
I just use bungee cord laces:

You could go for a cheap bluetooth amp for each space: (there are many options out of china, here is an example)

Also, in case anyone is interested I have the matching frame bag that I'd throw in for $50.

Makes an excellent bikepacking rig! Go nuts and convert to belt drive!
Rode the bike around 100 miles. Decided I really liked full suspension better.

Cleaning out the garage. This is the first version, so some large bikes don't fit very well, so we upgraded to a new one.

Walnut Creek was in good shape today at lunch.

Looks like the trail is already gone...

I'd say go for a California Air. Super quiet. It took me a couple days to notice I left it on in the garage.

I just bought a cheap $20 handlebar mount 800 lumens off Amazon seems a little spotty shining in backbyard but we'll see how it performs on trail ... probably combo it with a cheap headlight I have

I got something like this for my bar light:

It spreads the beam out. Works nicely. I still use more of spot on my helmet.

Indeed, rented a bike and rode for a day of fantastic train / tram / gondola lift assist with fantastic views of Matterhorn (and a bunch of other mountains). Not represented in the photos, but there was a pretty crazy cowbell serenade on one trail.
