Who's Riding Where???

Rain event last night in Mesa AZ led to partly sunny weather. Read: it’s perfect.

Repetition be damned, I’m taking the weaz out to Pass Mountain Trail tomorrow. A great place to test suspension and technique, as full value as a 7-mi mountain circumnavigation can be. Numerous sublime vistas, tricky rock negotiating on ST with some failure penalty potential. Check Trailforks.

Holler if you’d like to join. Social/safe pace. Like to hike up to Wind Caves from the car for x-credit. Wind Caves TH as shown on Trailforks; whatever time works.

Just saw this now!! A bit late...but I couldn't have gone anyway. Hope it was a good ride. Text is always the best option for a ride invite for me.
 
Who wants to show me around Sycamore (Riverside) or Greer tomorrow morning so I can demo this?

Maybe I missed the memo...what, exactly, is wrong with the Tracer?

It's green. :eek:

Nooo that's not it. I'll retell how I got here. Pull up a chair.

I was planning to look for a bike this winter and maybe get one if I found something awesome - just to modernize a bit (12 spd, seat tube angle, reach, 29er, etc). Then my Tracer needed work and I bumped into an XL Firebird asking me to buy it. It fit great, and I was thinking about getting a bike anyway, so I pulled the trigger. 11 rides - dialed in. Then I rode my Tracer again back to back with the Firebird and realized I made a mistake.

Soooo my options are, sell the Firebird and not replace it, sell it and buy something else, or trade it for something else at the shop where I bought it. I am experimenting with the latter.

And frankly, I am really disappointed that as many times as I have posted a picture of a bike on my roof rack, that nobody has noticed the SocalTrailRiders.org sticker on the rack. :(:(

I see. N+1 mitigated by S-1. :Roflmao

Good karma wishes on your search for bi-wheeled bliss. :thumbsup:

And it's really hard to see that sticker on a cell phone screen. :facepalm:
