Look how good it fits!!
Went up to New Paltz to ride a Century Loop I made. Ended up spending a lot of time dicking around in Minnewaska and Mohonk climbing on rocks and taking pictures so I didn’t have enough time to do the rest. Thank you ADHD 🤷
Anywho, check out these pics.
RUDY fork is phenomenal. Running a 40c tire and the front end has so much bite compared to running rigid with the 50c. Plus I’m an old man and my hands feel good.
I believe the climb I hit is steeper and longer than anything in Endless but it was right on the edge of being rideable. Definitely not comfortably even with a 38t ring. I might drop down to a 34t just to have some wiggle room for fatigue on a loaded bike.

This morning I actually read the directions and set my fork up correctly. I was running about 60psi too little yesterday, which felt great but the bars were low because I had too much sag.
Did my local mixed loop of train tracks, canal, 6-Mile, and some death wish hood just for added flavor.
Figured out how to ride all of 6-Mile and still pop out on the 27 side. Blue is Suicidal with 2-way traffic on a weekend. So many people ended up in the woods…

Rudy's got instructions? 💩
I better take a look...
It also has a tiny air chart sticker on the inside of the Drive Side fork leg 🤷

So for rebound it says how many clicks from the slowest setting, but doesn't say anything about what the slowest setting is or what direction to turn it. WTF?
There’s a Rabbit and Turtle sticker with arrows dumbass 😂
I have mine 5 clicks from fastest. Was tits at 6-Mile.

Gear prep for Endless.
Running my 3-Wire Bivy, Klymit Ultralight Pad/Pillow, and a Big Agnes McKinney bag liner as an Ultralight bag. Will bring a Poofy jacket and thermal knickers just in case but I sleep pretty warm so it shouldn’t be an issue at all.
Forgot the last place I used it was in the dirt on the C&O so it need a good scrubbing.

Cool. What crank are you running that can accept a 34T ring?
Ignite.
Farmer’s Market Commute Tuesday.
This morning I hit a couple spots on the Trials Bike. Got kicked out of the park next to my house pretty quickly.
Hiked out the the swimming hole at Watchung because that always looked like a fun spot.
Probably have to ride my normal bike tomorrow?

Very sorry Jim. Run free, Duggie.
