On my normal loop, cars hauling bikes passd me on the road leading to the local Metropark. Dropping by to see what was happening, noticed there are several Surleys, a Riv or two, a couple of those low slung trikes, and one of those CF recumbents that look like a spaceship!....this in a neighborhood that if you see kid on a box store bike, you've seen 40% of the cycling population!

Turned out they're all old folk, like me, and invited me to tag along! Sweet!

Staying in the ride pic mode here's mine from this morning. Don't think I've posted it when it was dressed for distance. Never thought to break out the camera while meeting the group....too busy ogling and drooling. Who knew there were those types of bikes here!?!

I like that bike AND I like that pic. Tires?

Yep. I'm meeting the Supervisor for a job I applied for at VWR in SF, in Boston next week. Then a couple weeks after that I have 2 interviews at wineries in Sonoma.

Sweet. I'll make sure you have a bike :speedy:

Awesome man! I think I'm gonna be staying in Sausalito, as my uncle owns a hotel right there by the ferry landing, which is probably where i'll be living until I find a place.

Unkle Rico 04-16-15 12:12 PM

Oh hell yes -- Not a bad spot at all :thumb: We'll figure out deets laters!

There's a neoprene saddle cover in the bag to keep the leather dry in the rain. It has a little foam extension that keeps my back drier on wet roads. Not perfect, but OK.

Nothin' special, Kenda Kwest 700x35c (28x1 5/8x1 3/8) Max PSI: well, the decal says 85, 80 is molded into the sidewall!?!

After the build I thought I could squeeze 40's in there....uhh, glad I bought the 35c's...they're tight enough!

Hey guys,

We just released a feature video that I think some of you would be able to appreciate. It's segueing from our blog post "Spring In The Catskill Mountains". We hike, and camp in this region of upstate New York often. We've been wanting to take our bikes up there and ride/ climb to the base right outside of Woodstock, NY. Check it out! I hope you all enjoy.

Good video, i enjoyed watching it.

I love the transition at 0:30 sec, the music kicking in really adds to the effect.

Thanks for sharing.

Consider the bar for this thread raised. You're like nzkiddo posting in the "Show us your SS/FG". Making everyone else look like chumps.

Yesterday was extremely windy and overcast, but I went for a ride anyway of course. Had the entire Devil's Slide path all to myself... practically unheard of on a weekend, normally teeming with hikers.

Ridden the trail quite a few times before already, but stopped and read all the info signs for the first time... some cool history.

thats a dope lookin bridge, where is that?

websterrr 04-20-15 05:20 PM

it's a cool old bridge, spans the Mississippi just north of St. Louis

Mumonkan 04-20-15 06:08 PM

looks rad, long and no cars

this island has 4 bridges and you can only ride on one of them, but not for the foreseeable future because theyre raising the entire thing for cargo ships
