    H2H. Jungle Roll call and recaps

    We just registered in cat2...My daughter and I. Question for those who've done this before, it says we do one short and one long loop, but how well are they marked? I assume there is at least one "fork in the road" so to speak where you could both the loop. Seems a bit strange to me to do it...

    Poll does everyone here own earbuda?

    I own one earbud, the left one. My oldest daughter lost one of hers so she needed a new set. I took the old set with one missing, so I rock left ear only at the gym so I can hear my surroundings, just not by choice. Now her newer set has been missing for a week. Hoping it's in the house...

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    Yeah, I cant believe we didnt see you as well, but I was pretty out of sorts when I finished tbh. Seems like you had a much better race than I did 🙂

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    Here's My Recap. My fat bike wave started 2 min before my daughters. I asked the starter to delay them more, but I don't think he listened. I was off to a good start, but got caught by the first rider from my daughters groups in about half a lap; towards the start of the single-track section...

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    My daughter and I are in.... She's doing cat2 15-18 and I'm doing the fatbike open. My primary mission is to use the head start I assume I'll get over my daughter to NOT get passed by her. But if I can beat her time I will absolutely throw it in her face! Very nice turnout for her girls...

    Nassau Trail conditions

    Conditions are good to go, I live in town. I did notice the temporarily closed sign was out in the upper lot on Nassau Rd., but kind of figured it was an oversight??

    Recommendations for a new hardtail

    I just picked one of these up (comp version) for my daughter as her XC race bike for this season. It's a great little frame, and the stock spec is "OK". I think it's a solid choice if your focused on XC riding/racing, but if you are looking for a hardtail to be used more as an "all around do...

    Motorcycles.... where do i start?

    I have a versys 650 that also falls in the same camp as the SV650. Great do everything bike, fast enough but not to the point that it's easy to get in trouble etc. The Versys is tall though, and I think that is common in this type of bike, so if your short legged might bit be the best for...

    Latest and greatest sealant?

    For you guys having trouble with plugs...How do they fail? Are they not working when inserted, or failing shortly after installing etc..? Asking because I've always just bought whatever plugs were available/cheap and never really given it much of a thought because they've always worked ok. I...

    Post a picture of your next bike part or mtb gear on order!

    Doing the same for my daughters (new to her) race bike. Using the money I saved buying used to spice it up a bit.

    Colonoscopy, how long after...

    I got my first one last year. I had no polyps removed or anything, but for me I believe I could have gone for a ride same day if I had it done early in the day. No soreness, or weird gas or anything like that afterwards. Somehow I never get as knocked out as I am supposed to with anesthesia...

    Wanted 15mm end caps for 2015-ish era FSA PMA hubs

    Sorry I somehow I missed replying to this. It’s an incredibly nice offer, but it’s probably more work and effort than this is worth and I would feel bad taking you up o it. Maybe the existing end caps could be drilled, and spacers used if/as needed to shim to fit, but not worth the effort and...

    Wanted 15mm end caps for 2015-ish era FSA PMA hubs

    This may be like searching for a unicorn, but my daughters XC race bike, a 2015 Scott Scale, has a set of FSA SL-K carbon wheels, from around the 2015 era. The current fork is setup for old school QR (what's that 100 x 9mm?). The damper on the fork died last season. It's usable and she raced...

    Show me your home bike shop

    My garage is a bit of an embarrassing $hit show at the moment. I’m awesome at starting a new project before the last one is finished or cleaned up 🤪 My wife doesn't go in there. She told me she doesn't care what I buy, as long as it all fits in the garage. But somehow she hasn't...

    What have you done to your bike today?

    She’s only 5’2”. I have her on an older size small Scott Scale with 27.5” wheels. I think small is the right size for her. Technically she should be on the lower end of a size small going off of manufacturer size charts, but on the bike she looks bigger than 5’2”. She has longer arms and...

    What have you done to your bike today?

    Delaced the wheel I recently cracked in preperation for a wheel rebuild with a fresh rim. Upgraded the airshaft in my Pike fork to a longer debonair spring. increased travel by 20mm. Hoping it allows me to run a 27.5 x 2.6 up front on my status (instead of 29) while preserving stock geo...

    High Bridge Flow Trails Status

    I went yesterday early afternoon. Climbing trail on the left had a few mushy spots, but right side was fine. Trails down were mostly firm but there was a very visibly soft spot right before the last table. Easily avoidable if aware its there. Other than a bit of moisture here and there...
