Quick stint on the ass pounder bike into farm land.

Rode under this Osprey's nest and he got pissssssed. For sure thought it was going to dive bomb me. :rofl:

Very nicely. It's at the settings that you recommended, rides very nicely, haven't weighed the rig to see what the difference might be. I may eventually purchase a boost front wheel just because I trust my work a little less than that of a good manufacturer.
Sir I must advise you that on the monkey you are just supposed to declare what incompetent dipshits manufacturers are.

i really loved mine. Was a huge upgrade from the pike I’d had for crashing into things/forgiving.

Dialing in the new wheels/tires on the only dry local trail. I think I quite like this combo, XR4 up front, DHR rear. Profile is really nice, the rims say 30, but they are wider than my other i30 rims and I'm pretty sure they are i35, that's what I ordered, the stickers say 30, but maybe that's just the stickers. Can't beat the deal I got, got them to lop some of the cost off for riding their bike on the Iditarod trail. Some of the non-local trails are dry too, rode those yesterday.

Little guy wanted to go to this mountain that has a kids obstacle/ropes-style course in the forest, so we did. Took bikes of course and did some real mountain biking as he said. Did amazing for the first time on technical trails. Was nice to see, and bodes well for future excursions.

The mud clearance must be phenomenal!

Felt horrible on the bike yesterday. Had me questioning my fitness. Today was back to normal. No crazy lactic acid in the legs on a basic climb. Felt nice. Weather is glorious. And green is coming back!

Was running on fumes in the heat for this ride. Did not feel the greatest at the end. o_O



Trails are bone dry, the talcum powder is starting to come out already.

Carpets of trilliums have arrived.


Finally got to use this water bottle, it's been sitting in a bin for 4 years. Only had to get a new frame for it, nbd.
