For sale here we have a 2018 PK Ripper Super Elite XL. $400. I picked this up with the intent of hitting some practice nights at bmx tracks, but it never came to pass. Time to move the bike along to someone who will use it properly. Bike is as-new, apart from a few minutes noodling around in...

For sale we have a pair of Five Ten Kestrel shoes, mens size 10/44/28. Black with orange trim. The shoes are essentially as-new, apart from a bit of storage dust on the uppers and one ding on the left shoe’s midsole (pictured). There are no marks on the soles, only slight evidence of cleats...

This made its way into my hands, intended for my Gen 6 GTI, but I never got around to installing it. Will happily pass it along to someone who’d make use of it. You’ll need to get it unlocked. Can meet up at Allaire/Hartshorne/mutually convenient spot in Monmouth County.

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, the Gozer did all of his own automobile maintenance. Cars were simple, which fit my simple mind. The 21st century has found me doing nothing more complex than changing air filter elements and topping off the air in the tires, but I've been thinking...

As posted on Pinkbike (and everywhere else): "Milan-San Remo was won today by a racer using a dropper post - a world first. As far as we know, a dropper post has never been used in professional road racing before. In a thrilling race, Matej Mohoric was able to stay with the biggest names in...

Since the snow is once again pounding down in NJ, I thought it a good time to elicit thoughts on things SUP. I live 2 miles from the ocean, about the same distance from the Shrewsbury River, about 20 minutes from Sandy Hook, and I've been thinking in recent years of adding a SUP to the activity...

Article/interview with Dave Weigle from "Freehub" magazine. Worth reading, especially if you are a fan of DW-link (on Iron Horse, Pivot, Ibis and Turner bikes), the DELTA system found on Evil bikes, and the Split Pivot (on Devinci and Salsa bikes). Sidenote: Look at that garage/workshop...

The current discussion on the Six Mile Conditions thread reminded me that I've been meaning to post something about this for a while now. Mrs. G's sisters have been living in suburbs of Kansas City for a few years now. Last summer, we drove out there to visit, and I brought my mtb. Seeking...

I have four OEM Mazdaspeed 3 wheels, taken off of a 2008 Speed 3. Wheels are 18x7, and will fit any generation Mazda 3, along with other Mazdas. They were my winter set, so the Blizzak LM-22's are still mounted, in the OEM 215/45-18 size. The tires have maybe one more winter no more winters...

I see that Chris King is now offering a threaded bottom bracket that allows 30mm spindle cranks to be used with an old-school BSA threaded frame. https://chrisking.com/products/302 Anyone have any experience with this setup? And is any other manufacturer offering a similar option? Thanks for...

Free to anyone who can use it. This was one of the OEM 16" wheels on my 2002 GTI. Some of the spokes were scuffed by a lazy tech when I was getting a tire mounted, and the place bought me a replacement. This has been in my garage 15 years. No curbage. I'll meet you in Monmouth or Middlesex...

These are Thule towers and bars that only fit a 3rd generation (1993-99) VW Golf/GTI/Jetta. Free to anyone who can use them. I can meet you in Monmouth/Middlesex County. I also ride Chimney Rock on occasional weekday mornings. There are also two wheel forks that will fit ANY Thule crossbar...

So Mrs. G and I are in the process of cutting cable and checking out other options for streaming TV content. She mentioned that we might want to use a VPN to guard against nasties invading through some of the streaming stuff. I'm still largely ignorant of such things, so I'm wondering if our...

Through the wonderful generosity of @seanrunnette , I've been able to get into this year's Something Wicked. As it turns out, Mrs. G is also interested in racing. If anyone decides they're not going to use their spot, please PM and let me know. It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I'm sure many of you have read/heard about the importance of being properly fitted to your bike. The next question: What, exactly, does that mean? Here is a link to a pretty extensive writeup of what it means when you go to Halter's Cycles and see Jason for a fitting. Whether you're...

Has the 2014 NJ CX Cup schedule been finalized yet?

Happy birthday to the guy who shares my first name and birth year, and is one of the great people who makes our scene such a good thing to be part of. Hope you have a great day, you old geezer! :D

Hey, think riding your bike indoors is boring? Guess again! Come check out the roller races this coming Saturday 7PM at Second Life Bikes in Asbury Park. See riders duke it out on competition-specific rollers in all-out, head-to-head 500 meter sprints. There will be music, bike videos, and...

So I finally took the plunge and bought a power meter, and am beginning to look into ways to upload and analyze my workouts. I'm unclear on whether I can use Training Peaks Personal Edition or if WKO+ is required. Two things: I'm using a Mac, so I'd need to buy Windows to use WKO+, and I...
