Barry Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I have a buddy with a bunches of orange bike. Orange frame and all the orange components you can imagine. And that's the thing. Nothing rhymes with orange and neither does it match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never got one as a kid, although I wanted one badly. I think that had a profound impact on me as an adult. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha technically the primary color is red, but I think the sun hitting the orange metallic accents really triggered that orange explosion in the pic. I'm definitely diggin' it!

throet Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Maiden Voyage! Rode Snail, Rim, 1/4 Notch, and Picnic. All GTG, albeit a bit greasy in some spots. Get you some while you can! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely feels plusher than the original, but I'm not sure whether that is the new fork, the rimpacts, or me just wanting to believe that it is. Anyway, I'll be playing around with the suspension tuning some over the coming weeks to really get it dialed. I see the sun shining now and my last meeting of the day just cancelled; so I might be going back out for a twofer this afternoon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobra Kai MTB Guy Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Anyone hit Randy’s elbow recently? The takeoff has this weird dip right before it, I think from people braking at the top. It’s not much at all but I ate shit pretty hard going off it today. Wasn’t sure if that was the reason or just a minor brain fart by me. Probably the latter.

It’s a really small dip but It’s the first time I’ve ever slipped a pedal on a drop before. Edited May 21, 2021 by Kobra Kai MTB Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First-Blood Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 @Kobra Kai MTB Guy I haven't seen the extent but for sure I wouldn't want to hit a dip just before a drop like that. Or hit a small lip that could buck a rear tire.Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throet Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Went out for an exploratory ride tonight. Double Down is good to go. Quarter Notch is mostly good, but puddling is a bit excessive. Best to give it a few hours of sun tomorrow. Picnic definitely needs more time to dry out - should be good tomorrow afternoon if we don't get more rain. Humidity was oppressive, bearable only due to the fact that temps were in the mid-eighties. Expecting more of the same tomorrow in that regard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMTBrider Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Can confirm. Was good with 1/4 although not primo and there’s a mud pit at mile 1.3 (east side) that’ll take a few days to dry. Picnic was just too soft. As such, mist other trails will not be good until late tomorrow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMTBrider Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Latest update... 1/4 - GTG. Note that this trail has low hanging trees that will be cleaned up tomorrow. Double Down - GTG Bob Ross - GTG Rim - GTG Snail - GTG - Still slick, but will be better later this afternoon Picnic - too soft. Recommended to hold off on riding until late afternoon/tomorrow Mulligan - Slop city. Don’t around don’t drown Peddlers - closed. Do not ride. Snow White - GTG. Sloppy creek crossing. Gumdrop - Sloppy, do not ride Nothing is primo yet and some standing water exists, but zero to minimal dirt pickup. Use caution on limestone surfaces due to moisture. That was a freakin humid 10 mile run this morning to check the trails. Blah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
