    What comes after push bikes?

    What is best in life? Watching your kids ride bikes. :D My kids have gone through a horde of bikes, most of which were meticulously picked by me with progression in mind. My daughter's favorite? The cheap pink girls bike with basket and tassles she picked out herself. The tires are now bald...

    Dirt Jumper?

    I've got a Norco 125 that I picked up used about 6 months ago. It's still hovering near the top of my list of Best Things Ever. Use it for tooling around the neighborhood with the kids and weekend trips to the pumptrack. And practicing perpetually <5yd manuals. I'm 5'10", TT is 22 1/2 center...

    Transition Patrol 1 vs Spec Enduro vs SC Nomad

    I bought the Trance SX. It's a lot less bike than I'm used to, but I'm 2 months in and still stoked with the decision. That's not me in the avatar physically, but spiritually that's representative of how I ride.

    Transition Patrol 1 vs Spec Enduro vs SC Nomad

    While shopping couple months back I took a spin on a few bikes. Rode Kona, Giant, Transition. Only these 3 as my primary criteria was long reach. I nixed the Patrol, 153, Reign, as the front end seemed just a little too slack to get up my local punchy single track climb. This left me with the...

    That would suck. We don't really have any riders that are equipped for anything other than pretty techy stuff. Even the xc guys. Hopefully if all flops, they put in another loop above that one with a worthwhile trail. You guys are light years ahead of us. Very interesting to hear what the...

    Yup. Pegged it. No sanctioned MTB trails, rampant rogue building. We've got well organized rogue builders even. They're good guys, just utterly clueless. They do a LOT of weed whacking of invasive weed growth, something that's constantly needed here to keep the trails ridable. But then turn...

    They may. We'll see. They knocked the presentation last week out of the park (I recommend attending one if ever have a chance), so we're hopeful. Jason Wells will be the builder. https://www.imba.com/blog/chris-bernhardt/meet-builder-jason-wells From the slide presentation anyhow, he seems...

    So how many of you will be on 27.5(650b) for 2015??

    I love that wheel rage is actually a real thing :D Well, I bought a 27.5 strictly to stay fashionable, and because the salesmen told me to. But I must say now that I've had it up on the home range, there may be something mildly sparkly and magicky going on down there. I've been riding the same...
