CX bike at 6m

[jumpa]

This just made me change the way I look at the twisties. My wrist are a bit numb from not being use to not having any front squish, but had so much fun.

Cross bikes are for doing laps in the grass son.

 

[Pearl]

yes, this is fun, it adds a new challenge for sure. you truly realize how fast the MTB is through these sections once you get back on though

Cross bikes are for doing laps in the grass son.

and fat bikes are for riding on snow

6MR is fun on a CX bike

Last time I tried that was with @clarkenstein at night. That wasn't the greatest of ideas. We both flatted

Now try it on CX tires instead of those 1.57"ers.

I much prefer a mtb there but a cross bike completely changes how the place rides. It's what I like to grab if I know I'm going to be on a slower group. Definitely have to pick the lines, watch traction etc.

When you want to spend time on the cross bike in the fall it's a great place as it's not boring as anywhere else you would ride a cross bike.

Either way, put it away until August...

Didn't have a choice, waiting on a mech for one bike and my other bike is on loan for single speed a palooza. Only had one bike left to ride and I wanted single track

Much better thanks. I'll just pretend that's my shadow

Buy really it's just I love the niner and the color is so dope. I love my bike but it wasn't the color I wanted.

 

[Patrick]

did it a few times - the crashes hurt more. JimV told me to stop also.

Was at 6 mile with @jimvreeland once and we came upon a guy who just about knocked himself out and wrecked his cx bike. Dude was a mess. I'm sure he had some time to think about his poor bike choice on his walk out and or ER visit.

 

[soundz]

@liong71er did it on his road bike .. true story

 

[walter]

I don't know, man. I ride the full loop in reverse of what most do (after crossing middlebush coming from 27, go right over big bridge) and there is something about hitting that hill in the fields and going down into the drops and flying through there.

Has never happened on a mountain bike.

CX > crap 26er MTB = Need new MTB.

I won't even bring the MTB there until I sort out a replacement for it.
