Fourth Party
Finally took the new F29 for its first real ride this morning, a quick ride, but a fun ride on a beautiful day.
First thoughts, its a bit livlier than the Mary, possible because its aluminum, maybe the "normal" bars make it respond a bit quicker, maybe the fact that the tubing around the bb is bigger in diameter than the steel Mary, making it pedal a bit more responsively. The tire selection so far is spot on, no complaints on the ignitor in the rear, and the rampage up front is insane. Diving into corners at all kinds of speed with no questions at all. Brake feel was a bit off in the beginning, but I know they need some more rides to get working. All in all, a great first impression.
Fred was sleeping in his car in the parking lot when I arrived, he was waiting for Jeff and his buddies, but due to my time constraints and dad duties I had to venture off on my own, hopefully next time.
There was also a sighting of a mystery rider, but I will leave it up to them to say how things went today.
A beautiful weekend is finally here, hope everyone gets out to enjoy it.
