curious as to your overall thoughts on that.... i'm eyeing one up for my next (eventual) build.
I really like it. In a testament to a functional fork, it completely disappeared underneath me on my Cali road trip (8 rides), I never gave a moment's thought to if it even needed more or less air. No complaints. It is only 120mm, wish I could get one with 130.

Woke up this morning to my neighbors kid bouncing his basketball alone. He was doing play by play commentating by himself. I felt bad for him. So I got up and challenged him to a game of Horse. I had to teach him how. He was pretty good and beat me legit. We played 8 games and I only won 1. He is 11 and doesn't have a bike. Seems like I need to do something ala Stinky boy about that.

Maybe you can sell it for a profit.

:D
A dude on YouTube was talking about that. He bought a van off Offer Up for $1300, put $1500 into the conversion, made $3k off Google ads during the build, $600 off Amazon links and sold it for $7500.

I don't see any of that happening. :rofl:

My solar setup was more than $1500

My parents live in Coos Bay. You can wave in their general direction when you pass through town. Look east across the bay and their house is atop a big hill/small mountain there. :D

Here's looking down from their house towards the North Bend bridge:



North Bend != Bend or even the north part thereof, of course.
For our annual bike trip to Bend last year one of the guys flew to North Bend. He was very unhappy.

Direct flights Wednesdays and Sundays between DEN and OTH (North Bend), though! June through October or thereabouts, because of the fancy golf course in Bandon.

Just had lunch with a longtime vendor, friend and awesome human. He informed me that, at age 50, he’s got early onset Alzheimer’s which tends to be a rapid decline scenario. The effects are already evident in conversation.

Just another reminder to live in the present and enjoy life while life’s enjoyable.

Just passed the fuck out for the first time in a long ass time.

Was talking to a friend when I went down. Glad he is smart enough to get his ass over... my glucose crashed and was at 36 when he woke me up.

DO NOT FEEL GOOD NOW.....

Found a bike leaning up against my storage unit...but judging from the stickers, it's a 'shop rat' or local bro bike.
Gonna see if anyone at the local shops recognizes it, if not...free huffy!





In other news, summer is almost here, here is proof!

Summer must be here, first thunderstorm/hailstorm of the season and there's chance of snow accumulation for the next three days.
