Ha - you change tires every two weeks.

Oh you wait Rigs, I'ma gonna put a Park patch and a pile of shoe goo on that tear and it will be back in bidness. That was on the tread if that matters not the sidewall and more importantly it was on your newly reno'd trail, so ya.

Jon liked his 6 years ago: https://nsmb.com/articles/leatt-airflex-knee-elbow-pads/ 

They do look good and Andrew did praise the Airflex pro knees :

You could try the reverse of my Indy tailoring: keep strap for bicep and cut small V’s in forearm band. A bit ghetto but effective

Ah deep thoughts with J Wilson

No downplay here- up play all the way

Slow speed - I like that Rigs. You just wanna have that Dumpsters bare knuckles and elbows look dialled and you know it.

Hey Vik how does that work differently than wearing them and stretching through use? I might have to try the bottle method.

Having ridden with Cam on two greasy wet days I will say it was like he was riding dry trails with his Tannus inserts. Us regulars tire guys were pinballing off roots, sliding out on rocks and mud while he was cleaning everything while singing Willie Nelson riffs. Just when I got a new bike and started to keep up to him he took off again. Cold war starts now - my Tannus order is in.

I like that line - pants intrigued.

Whenever I talk to rangers I introduce myself as one of three names: Cooper, Jerry or Eamonn.

I am guessing it fell off a truck while shuttling. Lemme know if it's yours.

March 23-snow starts at Grannies, hard to ride after Air Supply. Expresso and Grannies all dirt all good.

March 20-Road is clear to Ladies (which is dry and great), top 100ish m of Expresso snow then clear from there.

No Quarter climber is clear to final switchbacks before road - a few hikes on corners but mostly rideable. Nothing to ride above though still a lot of snow on Executioner. Oil Can down is good to go

I rode from Hyannis on Mar 13. All clear of snow for Bridle up climbers to power lines down Severed- Cbuster and John Deer. Wet, slippery and great.

Fire road clear to fourth switch - not sure about higher we ducked in there and rode Ladies which was all clear except a tree down before concreted roller near the teeter.

Fire road slushy but mostly rideable to third.
Kirkford sucked- boot holes and snow pack from before gets punctured too easily. Bobsled super fun but it might ice up at night

I rode up mtn. view from Hoskins, KOS both super icy but no problem on the fat Wozo- regular bikes would def. be a problem. Fire road is an easy climb but the one foot trench will be a problem when it thaws. So cold I rode down 38DD picking any line that worked as the bike stayed on top of the hard snow - super fun and a lot like tree boarding. Bobsled was great as I did the same thing choosing any line through the woods. The actual trail was icy and a bit sketch.

I started at Hyannis- all the climbers were hard pack and totally rideable. Adonis and JD quite grippy and fast.
