    Lyons Outdoor Games

    I've heard there's a few different lines for beginner to advanced. I think there's 3 or 4 bigish 10-15' doubles. There's a pic of one lower down on this blog, http://oskarbluesbrewsbikes.blogspot.com/

    What's in your stable at the start of 2008?

    Just got some feedback from the Marzocchi tech. They said to grease the o-ring on the qr. I did that and also put a little grease on the threads of the qr, and it seems to torque down tighter now. Will have to wait for todays snow to melt now before getting a real world ride test.

    front range downhill trails (shuttle)

    Don't be too discouraged. You can shuttle 'some' stuff and haul @ss, but not on the Open Space trails. Anyone talking smack about Front Range riding is either blowing smoke or hasn't been riding around here (Boulder County) for long. We have plenty of fun singletrack, just gotta work for it...

    What's in your stable at the start of 2008?

    Ma new Heckler. 08 XT cranks, R derailler, and brakes (8"F and 6"R), Easton Havoc hoops, RP23, and Marz 55 ETA. After 6 rides, the front hub is not locking down tightly and I have a little slop in the system. Gonna try to do some fabrication on this. Any monkeys have tips for the new Marz...

    Tell us your jokes!

    A veteran is looking for a job and finds an opening at the local hardware store. During the interview the boss asks him about his veteran status, to which the man answers he was in the war and had his balls blown off. A bit surprised, the boss likes the man, hires him, and tells him to come in...

    New Maxxis DH tire

    Anyone run an Advantage 2.4 on the front? If so, have you also run a Minion F, and what were the differences between the two? I've been real curios to know if the high volume gives any/much sidewall flex when you're really pushing it into a berm.

    Lopes off GT

    I'm with Lopes. I've seen the up's and downs of GT and their disregard of their workers for the sake of corporate profit. F em. I hope Flyin Brian gets a contract on a sweet ride for next year. I also think I-drove is poo.

    Realistically, how good do you need to be to ski Silverton...

    Have you skied 'Taco @ Copper? if so, you'll prbly be ok. And comfy with blind roll-overs into the abyss? The other part is fitness, you'll do a lot of hiking at altitude. I've heard the fitness part is the biggest challenge from peeps I know who have skied there. Have also heard it's a blast.

    Boulder trails?

    I think there may be some confusion on this thread. Eaton Park, aka the Gunbarrel Jumps are just off 63rd St in Gunbarrel adjacent to Twin Lakes. It is a City Park designated as a bicycling dirt park, and you will not get a ticket there unless you are on a moto or have an alcoholic beverage in...
