New Bike Day!

[Grego]

Sweet bikes guys! We should put together an all HT ride.

Down Joplin of course.

[Mikie]

Congrats, he's very handsome. Wow, 24.4 makes my 25.6 look portly. Are the Rekons 2.4?

All it takes to get lighter is more freaking money... Currently a 2.6 on the front and a 2.4 on the rear. These are @Voodoo Tom ’s wheels as mine are getting built.

 

[Mikie]

that’s a sweet ride, are you still going to build up a wheel set?

Yes sir, they are getting built now. These are Tom’s wheels.

 

[Mikie]

WOW, that's race light. You're gonna compete, right?

Nope!

 

[blixet]

She's beautiful.

 

[Faust29]

A couple really nice bikes today... And one has a drive train that I may fantasize about.

 

[Faust29]

Down Joplin of course.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has the Joplin virus lately...

 

[rossage]

Down Joplin of course.

Why not Merrill-Sunset-El P ? I've seen guys riding hardtails down that. Looks sketchy!

 

[rossage]

I'm glad I was at the beginning of this trend when i got my SS in 2012.

I've been hard since 1987.

I’ve ridden those trails 2x....SS and SS.

Really impress me, do it on a fixed gear.

Symptoms are manageable; the cure is known for high efficacy. You'll develop an immunity to it eventually – about the same time it's inked into your weekly rotation.

Like a guy named Ross who stops by here from time to time.

Or a uni!

No can do..don’t wanna wear my sister’s skinny jeans.

 

[rossage]

Or a uni!

I have seen that, unfortunately. Not impressed.

Once for me! That was one of my first rides on the old el Mariachi single speed. May she Rest In Peace...

I might be riding there in the near future, though...

Kind of feels like seeing your ex-girlfriend with a new man......

 

[blixet]

I've been hard since 1987.

Ouch!

 

[scan]

May wanna see a doctor

Yeah buddy!

I'll have what he's having...

 

[Mikie]

[Ebruner]

Efffff it... might as well turn the pile of parts on the shelves and the frame stored up in the rafters into a bike. All I was missing was a fork to build up another bike and with a bit of free time on my hands, I decided to make it happen. It's actually shaping up to be a nice little ride.

This is going to be my ride from home exploration machine for the foreseeable future. I dub thee... Coronameleon.
