I think I'll roll around on my urban bikey today and get a feel for it. I need to get me some urban kind of tires though. I am thinking something like K Rads or something like that.
which urban bike would that be?loco said:

Soul Cycles Roscoe. I got my frame Saturday. It's my single speed bike for now. We'll see how that goes. It's set up 34 x 20, so I should be able to handle it.DRB said:
I rode on my lunch break - does that count?
Going to have to use one of my backup bikes , since I broke my FSR XC 
Nice. The k-rads should work nicely for you on street, and the price is right. Holy Rollers, little more bite in the dirt if you're ever inclined to take up DJ'ing. I run 34x18 for urban, you should be fine. Have fun!!!loco said:
When did that happen?splat said:Going to have to use one of my backup bikes , since I broke my FSR XC
I'll be resting some very tired legs today.
I rode to work this morning and I'll ride home again tonight.
Mancilg - I saw a totaled Hummer (and an even more totaled Honda Accord) last night on I-97 and thought of you. Looked like dude in the Hummer did an ill-advised lane change into the honda and rolled it. It was pretty spectacular.

I will be. Yesterday I did Webcyclery's version of the Paris-Roubeaux and had a blast even though we got rained and hailed on. Today it's sunny and warm so I'll be out there again.
Tonight Is a Recovery ride for me, so I might even enjoy the ride. It's nice knowing that I have to keep my heart rate under 80%
I am!!!
My bikey has a set of brand new Specialized FastTrak Pro 29er tires, rebuilt eggbeaters, and a tune up!

1-2 feet and a water condition caution, You need to come to Cali. And just to rub it in a little more, it was 3-4 with the occaisional 5-6 set, and I was in the water from 7 A.M. to about 1 P.M. then got tacos and tequilagnurider1080 said:lets see... my local spot is the wall in hampton. it sucks but right now its all ive got within a reasonable distance.
i think its because you gotta watch out for hypothermia. that and they always say caution for the water status. i hope to go to college out in cali and my top choices are uc santa barbara and uc san diego so i think ill get to experience some good surfing for once.maxyedor said:
Either school is great, UCSB is probably a better school but UCSD is closer to Mexico. I'm currently a Photojournalism major at The Brooks Institute in Ventura, this area has a tom of cool stuff to do.gnurider1080 said:
about 20 people showed up, but I think myself & 2 others did almost 50% of the work..so I didnt get a ride indouglas said:
Very often trail work is a lonely, thankless job. I give you lots of credit for doing it.douglas said:
thanks, this spot is worth...on private land & super close to home, plus they feed us some bbq after..ofcourse by the time we got back it was dark and I couldnt see what I was eating, but almost all of it tasted good 
Two words... poison ivy.
Same as Doug: Trail work at Gibbs Farm until sundown, literally. We finished up our segment by 7:45 and got out to the BBQ fest by 8. I planned on doing a ride before or after involving jumping but was too wiped out and needed beer/food.
We were laughing as we came out to the BBQ because no one looked as muddy as us! Did a bunch of stone laying for drainage before the "noth shore" bridge, built back up 2 drops and made a set of rollable double jumps, about 3 feet high with a 6 foot gap but it's pretty safe, no big lips and it has a semi long smooth lander. Moved a hell of a lof of stone & cut up logs and dug some huge holes. Still, no ride though...
