    Blackberry to Android

    What are the must have apps? Let's start with the freebies and go from there. Business related, bike related, photo related, etc are all acceptable. Several years with Blackberry devices and the most I use are translators, QR code readers, twitter, google stuff (built in now of course) and...

    Graphic designers

    I know there were a few professional graphics people around at one time. I've got a simple little project I'd like to hire one of you for. Experience working with a cycling sock design in the past would be very helpful. H8R - might need you for a t-shirt run as well. Thanks

    New arrow in the quiver, A9C

    XL Air 9 Carbon setup single speed at the moment but will likely go geared at some point. I have a set of Press Fit BB30 adapters at the ready. 20.8 pounds as it sits and a good complement to short and long travel FS 29ers in the quiver. Went with the white obviously and added some orange...

    What does it all mean?

    Dangerously on topic for a cycling site but with a touch of PaWN. News stories popping up all of over the place of late regarding bikes and the economy. It's no housing doom and gloom or anti-union protest but interesting in it's own way if only to me. Being in the industry I probably read too...

    The Clymb

    It's a pro-deal site for outdoor gear that features a few items every 3 days or so. Current deals are on some Pearl Izumi goods and Uvex helmets. I've not ordered from them yet but some friends I referred previously have. I've not compared their prices to any other deal sites so I don't know...

    Can you spare $5 for Krista Park?

    Krista Park has earned a spot to represent the US at the marathon world championships in Germany next month. She's an independent racer and USA Cycling does not provide any support to the racers they select for marathon worlds. So, she's put together a raffle to help her get there. If you can...

    Spec me a new desktop

    It's time for a new desktop for work purposes and I'm way too busy to keep up with the last code name of the 16 core, nuclear reactor powered, 1.21 gigawatt power supply wiz bang desktop processor let alone everything that comes with it. I've built many machines but time is short so...

    Little help

    Fellow monkeys, we're (NoTubes) in need of a little help naming our new road rim. Naming products is one of the hardest things to do and we're really at a loss on this one. Without making an official contest out of it, I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions. If your suggestion passes the...

    A new addition

    Background: I've been riding nothing but 29ers for the last 3 years or so to include a Ti Racer X and a Salsa El Mariachi. The Racer X gets all the trail use, the Salsa sees daily commuting, (very) occasional trail and some dirt roads. While I love the RX for all day rides it just isn't...

    I'd heard the rumors for an XC only but seems it's official now for a triple event. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/2010-mountain-bike-world-cup-to-return-to-the-us

    New addition

    Back before Christmas I had to have my beagle/lab? mix put to sleep. She'd been diagnosed with lymphocarcinoma just weeks before but the vet said it was very advanced and very aggressive. She didn't live to see 8 years old but had a good life none-the-less. She was an SPCA dog that'd been...

    Dropbox account

    Who wants one? Signed up for the beta a while back and finally got my account which came along with 10 invites and I have 8 to give. It's only 2GB for now but might be useful anyway. BTW, getdropbox.com if you're interested in what it is.

    Bar size?

    Saw this letter on cyclingnews.com about Oval pushing 26.0 bars instead of 31.8 and was curious what the monkey contingent thought. I have 26.0 bars on my road bike and still run 25.4 on all my mountain bikes. I'm not concerned with frontal area or any of that but I've never felt the smaller...

    Any monkey types coming out for the Hardcore? I'm thinking about rounding up a few folks to go turn a couple laps.

    Straight talk?

    Thought this youtube clip summed it up nicely. McCain can't keep anything straight. He really is GW round 2 or at least seems to have the same memory and thought pattern.
