What does that avatar mean?

Looks like an infinity symbol with a double cross?

Sold the enves, borrowed a friend's wheels. Also pre registered for my first real race on Sunday. Hype

Rode in the snow. F this winter. F the road crews. F the salt.

couldn't have planned it better!!! hahaha

it's a leviathan cross.

Today I got to use this

Today I think I'm giving up on finding a do it all cross bike and saying **** it. Gonna just buy a SS and a geared cross bike.

The new carbon stigmata is a nice one.

macho man disc?

Thanks for the info. Symbols fascinate me.

I looked up the Leviathan Cross. It was created by the Knights Templar as a Christian symbol. The two bar Cross is called the Patriarchal Cross. The small bar at the top represents the plaque at the top of the Cross which read, "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."

Interesting that Anton Lavey would adopt what is a purely Christian symbol for his religion. Many Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches still use the symbol. Hitler used a Sanskrit symbol for the swastika so I guess its no surprise.

Thanks again.

Put in a good 50 miles of dirt in today in the Marin Headlands. Solid 6k feet of climbing.

Was clear when I left, but right as I started to crest the first peak the fog rolled in fast and thick. Visibility was probably a 65 feet. Still caught a **** ton of air coming down Old Springs Trail.

First long ride on a 29er and they roll quick man.

it's also the alchemical symbol for sulphur.

It does look nice but I'm not a 1%er

I think they are nice bikes but they do nothing for me.

Compared to what else is out there to lure the money out of a wealthy 1%er's pocket, the base Stigmata C model is an affordable $3500 for full carbon with hydro discs.

Out of the box, it's more than capable as configured from Santa Cruz. A buddy of mine lent me his and it's amazing.

Interesting.

Sulfur (?Leviathan Cross?)

I find it ironic that it was a christian symbol for 800 years, that's all. I used to dabble in satanism in the late 80's and early 90's. Was a weird culture in and around NYC, some of it a little scary but most of it just anti-mainstream stuff.

Too bad on the flat. I had one go up in my face the other day. Why? Because numnuts didn't check the spoke ends after truing a wheel

Went to see the Book of Mormon last night with my gf and her sister - absolutely hilarious. Being a South Park fan added some depth to the humor for me.

****ing cx-rays are friggin expensive, $200 just for spokes on next wheelbuild

yolo or whatever.

Just get lasers. They're basically the same spoke, but not flattened.

weight weenie tho. alloy nips and everything.

OH THE HUMANITY

That's what I'm doing also. Soul-Kozak hubs to SL23 with lasers and alloy nips at a projected 1360g 20/24

CX-Rays are just flattened lasers.

That's like saying that diamonds are just compressed carbon.

$143 for 72 with alloy nips at danscomp (if I did my math right)

yeah but ill save ONE GRAM!

i need dem aero bennys churning up dirt climbs at 5mph





who are we kidding, you all know im doing it for fashion.
