It also matches my bike.
Goddamn, I hope they let me back up there sometime while I can still sorta ride a bike.

Keep me posted!
If DaPeach is out there in red flannel I feel the rest of us should be wearing stars and stripes jumpsuits when we ride.
What's that... Spring ?
Either way it looks good.
Cold as fuck though. 16F and 50mph winds this morning.
Started at 23F. Warmed to a balmy 26F two hours later.
I just assumed you all did.
I've been riding in my Davey Crocket buckskin get-up. I had to get a custom coon skin cap to fit over my helmet.
Can't match the shore but blue skies, mild weather and no much mud made for a fun and fast after work ride
It seems a bit absurd until you ride it, works remarkably well around here.
Yeah, they are quite popular here too. They do a candy red paint that is rather nice.
She's purdy up close. Blue tinted clear
It also matches my lawnmower
A nice one I saw in Rotorua.
Talk about absurd head angles
If you ride stuff like that you would want a full suspension bike and not a slacker head tube angle on the hardtail.
That would be the common wisdom and I agree for 99% of people but... There are some people who own it on hardtails, almost like the exceptions who prove the rule.If you ride stuff like that you would want a full suspension bike and not a slacker head tube angle on the hardtail.
So: This is Yeah Gnar, probably the hardest legal trail in Wellington right now (grade 6 — red); first watch this dude ride it for the first time.
(Note: for whatever reason for me at least the embedded videos won’t let you change the playback quality on RideMonkey, but if you watch them inside YouTube app or I guess on desktop then you can turn them up nicely, especially the second one which has 4k).
Yeah Gnar doesn’t start immediately, both chaps ride from the peak (different ways) to it. They both ride a little and then cross a fire road. They drop into Trickle Falls (5/black) and then Yeah Gnar starts with a little right hand fork shortly after the first steep rock roll on TF.
Watch and see how steep some bits are, there are several 4-5’ drops from rocks to rocks on corners and all sorts of hella dangerous bouncy death shit.
To really appreciate the second vid, try and stick with the first one at least until he gets to the little stream at the bottom, which is back on Trickle Falls.
Now watch this fucker ride it on a hardtail, Chromag Stylus; almost unbelievable skill:
(Seriously make sure you turn the vidquality right up and watch in YouTube if you can’t)

Not arguing that. However, there are too many people that think they are the exception...and they are not.
is that LOL dracut, or your back yard?
That's my backyard.
