My experience is that sort of shift behavior may indicate the head end of the cable is starting to separate from the cable inside the sti shifter mech. See if you can push enough cable out of the brifter to observe if there’s any fraying or separation of the cable from the attachment to the...

By any chance, is the curse marked/to be marked prior to Sunday? Thanks!

I’ve noticed some abrasion/wear on my tire sidewall, just above the bead, at the rim interface (these are the hookless rim design). After a bit of use (probably <250 miles so far on the tire, mounted new), there’s a ~1.5 cm section on the tire where the rubber compound is worn sufficiently to...

Thanks for yet another fantastic race and race day. For whatever reason, you folks always seem to pick it up a notch with the overall vibe. Food, smiling volunteers, cooks and servers, swag, wandering minstrels, THAT freaking teddy bear (which was awesome btw - does anyone remember the bunny...

All, thanks again for another great race event. I wish I knew more of you so I could thank you in person. I know it takes a lot to plan, organize, promote, and execute these things, so I’m forever grateful that the proverbial village it takes to pull this off is so connected to each other and in...

Hate to hear issues like this, even if it's far from the norm. As long as the overall experience is good for the juniors, and the (hopefully) isolated instances don't mentally impact them negatively, it's good to see the next generation out riding, racing, and mixing it up. Keep your kids'...

Thanks for another great event Bulldogs! Despite driving down this am in torrential rain and T-storms, it calmed down to “only” rain while the endurance classes were waiting at the start for the lightning to pass and getting the all clear. Course held out fine. A bit greasy at the start in...

Steph, Jeff, Bulldogs - thanks for the guided pre-ride. Much appreciated. Good to see everyone again. Should be fun next week.

Agree. I think a little redemption here.

Confirmed. Had the same idea and stopped by otw home from Stewart yesterday. Got there like 2:30, absolutely nothing left in cans: new release or “standard” fare. Was told ppl were there on line yesterday 4:30 am to wait for the OH collab. I’m sure it was good, no sure if anything warrants that...

Hey Folks, you really nailed it. The Stewart races are always like a gathering, wrapped in a race. People just seem so happy to be there, catch up, ride bikes. Good times. Really glad the reg numbers played out well, with what seemed a big draw from people outside the “regular” H2H participant...

VW recommends the DSG service every 40K. Yes, the DSG trans on the MKVI's and up are all good and free of all the initial issues with the early trans's. Shifts are hella quick if you play the "pseudo manual" driving game, since the dual clutch mech can engage without need to let up on the...

Good times today all. Greatly appreciated the guided tour pre-ride, plus the extra miles integrated into lap 2. Even though everything there is “kinda familiar”, it’s so much better for me to be able to just follow wheels and not have to think when I’m not following course arrows. Always a...

just cleared my sched for tomorrow and next Sat. in for both...

silly question - for those who've been out of town (i.e. missed the boat for pre-reg) and are looking to swing by for the guided rides: would one simply drive to the Boy Scout camp address to pay the "day pass" reg fee and be able to meet up with the desired ride group at that time? Guessing...

From a rider (consumer) perspective: there's probably an inverse relationship between repeating/established events and the need to spend superlative efforts in promotion. First year/inaugural events - need to get the word out. If the venue is good, repeats the same time each season, and word of...

Belated thanks to all of the MTBNJ crew I didn't get to thank in person Sunday. All the time and effort spent planning and executing another fun venue is greatly appreciated. I guess until the next event, whatever that may be, @seanrunnette will need to run live commentary on every ride. @gtluke...

Understand the sentiment here, but this is a bit sad nonetheless. Admittedly, I'm really just a "consumer" of these events but have always enjoyed and appreciated having local race venues available, especially the endurance style formats. Not coming from any actual position of knowledge here...
