AntonioGG Posted May 19, 2024 Share Posted May 19, 2024 You climbed a mountain, technically that counts as mountain biking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a special pair for travelling and exploring where I knew I would be checking my phone and/or Garmin a lot. Some of the newer gloves work very well though on touchscreens so I finally retired mine. After 2 different trucks/shells I finally figured out a hack to lock it from the inside. If you have guides along the locking rod, clamp some small vice grips right next to a guide and it will hold the handle closed. I have been riding quite a bit but you won't see me on any of your 120+ mi mtb rides!!! Chateau! Edited May 31, 2024 by GFisher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFisher Posted June 2, 2024 Share Posted June 2, 2024 This is getting old. Every ride I end up with a ton of burrs. Granted, this was probably the worst example but was just from a pretty standard BCGB/SATN combo ride. No bushwacking or mystery trails involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurronnicane Posted June 4, 2024 Share Posted June 4, 2024 Yesterday I rode at Pedernales Falls State Park for the first time in a while.  All the recent rains had things particularly lush, creeks flowing, stuff blooming.  Jones Spring is flowing and the ferns there are rocking!  I had good intentions of starting on the early side but it was 10:00 am before I arrived.  Got lucky as it was cloudy and breezy, and didn’t seem that hot till the final 30 minutes. I did run into a couple hiking and one of them was having heat-related stress.  They were a long way from the parking lot, and though they didn’t ask to be rescued I told the park ranger and it sounded like they were going to send someone out there to see if they needed help. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No bushwacking or mystery trails involved. I was soaked from the rain after today’s ride and my socks were covered in burrs. Surprisingly, it was easy to pick the burrs off the wet socks. Maybe that’s the ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheX Posted June 6, 2024 Share Posted June 6, 2024 Burrs sound worse than a face full of spider webs you get when you're the first person on the trail in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tip Posted June 6, 2024 Share Posted June 6, 2024 I now have three pairs of dedicated burr socks because I've given up picking them clean. When all three pairs are dirty I hand wash them by themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurronnicane Posted August 2, 2024 Share Posted August 2, 2024 (edited) Â Â Two days ago, on my 67th birthday, my daughter and I had another great ride that included another section of the Arizona Trail, a wonderfully-fun, flow trail (Full Sail), and a long downhill (Schultz Creek) to our shuttle. Â 20 miles, 1900 feet of climbing and 2500 feet of downhill fun! Â Afterwards we drove down to Oak Creek (Bootleggers) near Sedona for an amazing swim. Â A great birthday indeed!
