    Car-spotting thread

    Much appreciated the fact that you thought of me. You're most likely right about that being the last running one in the East Coast, with that monster turbo setup it's probably a jack stands queen...

    E-bikes are a thing

    As proper dirt bikes are increasingly showing up in Ringwood alongside quads and being extremely loud, I'm almost relieved to see the occasional Surron, at least they don't make any sound.

    Going Long and Hard.

    If you're willing to spend that kind of money...https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/4013595/ The one upstate NY that was selling for $600 was still there back a couple of weeks ago, now gone.

    Things that make you frown :(

    If that was the case you would have to pry that info from my cold dead...mouth!

    Things that make you frown :(

    I still got two cologuard boxes from shortly after me and the wife had the real thing. Not sure it’s a scam but sure enough seems pointless to me as it does not provide ‘definitive proof’ you do have or not have the nasty thing. Rather be done with the colonoscopy and be done with it IMHO.

    Weird bikes, bike innovation and bike contraptions

    I wonder where the advantage is, 34T leverage with 36T movement? It doesn't really say in the article...or I may have got distracted (as in bored).

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

    What they made so far (UPS) is to invoice you $6 for processing packages from abroad, so expect to receive an invoice with whatever customs fee applieas and the UPS processing fee...they actually started charging for that even before the de minimum was suspended. I just stopped purchasing...

    Things that make you frown :(

    The real reason for bears increasingly entering residential areas is to search for poo bags for them to use in the woods...and if you think it's bad wait for them to learn they're supposed to wipe using toilet paper... My poop protocol in the woods/park for Bailey is to flick, cover with leaves...

    Onewheels on MTB trails?

    If I understand correctly this tilt remote gives you an offset angle to work with while going uphill or downhill? That would be cool. Still challenging with discharge a small wheel but that would definitely help.

    I feel bad for not mentioning I have a couple of time-sert kits I used on my aluminum head with plenty of spares that you could use, I do believe they’re 6x1 and 8x1.25…way better than helicoil.

    Things that make you frown :(

    While I'm walking Bailey I usually pick up the bags abandoned on the side of the road and even the loose poops if obvious. I wish they came with a name and address so I would have a place were to deposit them...

    Ouch! Doable, have you ever tried one of those drill bit guides to go straight through the broken bolt? Hopefully it's not stainless steel...

    Onewheels on MTB trails?

    I've been fascinated by those things for a while now, but never thought it would be a good idea riding one of those on rough terrain. Don't you have to move your weight forward for it to move ahead? How is that compatible with a steep, technical climb? Maybe if the front was a little bit higher...

    Tell me where you rode today...

    Osage Orange, scientific name Maclura pomifera. It secretes a sticky white latex juice, I guess you could try and use it instead of Stan's :shrug:
