    MTB for the Wife

    I'm looking to get my wife a mountain bike. She's a casual road cyclist now, but has some experience riding off-road with me on trips, including Moab and Peru. I can see her holding her own at Allaire/Lewis Morris/Six Mile/Patriots Path. A full-squish 26er seems like the right move, and...

    Iceland

    Going there the week of August 29th. Thinking of peeling off from the family for some riding. Anybody been there? Trying to figure out if it makes more sense to book a one-day trip with a company or just explore on my own. Any suggestions regarding routes, tour companies, maps, etc...

    Frozen Valve Core from CO2 inflation?

    So on a sunday ride to the city, I pick up some glass near 135st. and Riverside Dr. No worries as I have two spare tubes, two CO2 cartridges, and a genuine innovations nano inflator (thread-on, twist to inflate variety). I've used this method of inflation fine in the past. First tube gets...

    Can anybody confirm whether this loop is doable on a road bike? Google maps calls these roads but before I make this a key connection in my point-to-point ride tomorrow, I'd like to hear from others who have ridden it? :confused: On a related note, how clear/not clear of snow are the roads...

    Freestyle Navigator Watch 2.0

    Just curious if anybody has this watch and what they think about it (particularly the compass feature). Obviously it's redundant on the bike for those with a Garmin, and likely to get smashed up in any case, but I was considering it more for off-the-bike applications. :hmmm: Thanks.

    Trimming Steerer Tube

    Just got a new suspension fork (Reba Race 29er) to upgrade the rigid fork that came with my monocog (I know...fork cost about as much as the bike :D). I've sawed handbars with some success without any equipment other than a hacksaw and a couple of files, so I'm thinking that sawing this mofo...
