I will be racing on a 145mm travel bike with a single crown fork, front shifter and dropper post. I claim AARP DFL right now and no one can take it away from me! That was a great response, by the way, hope Andy enjoys his time with Specialized

The standard BC loop for my kids/grandkids from Hardtimes...Homestead behind the lake, left up to deerfield, left on upper Pinetree, left on upper Explorer loop, down across concrete bridge, right on main rd., right on campground conector, pedal by the lake and say "hi!" To the fishermen, back...
