Pre-riding is highly encouraged! I picked up three goatheads this weekend, but was randomly screwing around on some little trails I found. I had Stan's in tubes, so they sealed right up when I pulled them out. If you know when you're coming down, and it extends to the evening or Sat afternoon, you

+1 on Mustache bars. The forward aero-position is just great, and as a bonus you get the outside position. It's right in the middle between Albas and drops. I'm contemplating putting them back on, as the drops aren't quite cutting it for me. On Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 4:29 PM, Matt B. wrote: > > >

As of this morning, space is almost filled. We capped it at 250 riders over the three routes. Currently only 12 spots remaining for 100 miler, 18 for 100K and 20 for 50K. If you're thinking of hopping on board, best be quick about! On Tue, Feb 23, 2016 at 12:59 PM, cyclotourist

Nice, thoughtful post, René. If I can interject my opinion (it is the internet), I would say don't sell any more bikes! You have a great 1, 2, 3 combination right now... seems just perfect! On Sat, Feb 20, 2016 at 9:24 PM, René Sterental wrote: > Sorry John, I didn't take any photos before tapin

Those should be great. Any sort of fast 35mm CX tire will fit the bill. There are a few sections of sand, but I rode them with Challenge Eroicas (smooth 32mm) and while it sapped some energy, didn't stall me out. The rest is really hard pack. Minimal rocky sections. On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 2:02 PM
