they opened an under construction park today for a few hours for the public to check out, ive always missed these in the past but i got a hot tip from a coworker so i headed there after work. there was free kayaking but i didnt bring a lock, the line was ten miles long and it was 102º in the sun. not feelin heatstroke waiting on line.
PP & CP has some competition once this thing is open, you can really fly on the main loop. so much training.
some sw8 gravel roadz too
for non nyc locals, this area used to be the worlds largest dump, and can be seen from space

The ones I have are listed at 40cm, but they flare out at the drops, so where the hoods are actually measures at 38cm.

love 'em. they are amazing on loose, rocky trails. on pavement, they're pretty decent also. when these wear out (a long time from now) I'll replace them with a set of cazaderos.

yeah with the archetype rims, these measure out at 46mm. cazaderos are made by Panasonic also, so they oughta be a fine tire.

yeah i dont expect anything less than great mostly curious about the tread pattern. 5000 miles on paselas with no complaints, these col de la vies (also panasonic made) are super fast but im finding the tread can be a bit squirmy

I rode a couple thousand miles (probably half of those miles on loose gravel trails) on a set of specialized fatboy tires...completely smooth tread. I like these better.

He is not dead, they have him held as a captive and are using him to practice certain rituals.... Some day, the videos of this will be on porn sites. (They need the money for a good architect).
