    BIYF 2022/2023 - Even less frills

    1/22 Riding time 1:02 Dirt: +:30 Total: 1:32 Hopped on the fattie for a ride around the local woods and it felt like the bike was a yoyo. Looked down and saw a pretty crazy amount of front end flex. Turned around and headed back home where, upon further investigation, I learned my fork was...

    Things that make you frown :(

    This is the reason I refuse to ride the road in the afternoon/evening. There are just too many clueless asshats on phones and agros driving like it's Mario Kart. I just can't take the risk of being unprotected on 2 wheels amongst that nonsense. I also have a dash cam. I have contemplated...

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

    I would think riding those doubleshots is actually harder than traditional clipless since you’ll have to get the pedal to the correct side before clipping in. Once your body learns the muscle memory of clipping in and out it it will become automatic. If I were a betting man I would wager than...

    1/16 Moving time: 3:02 MLK 2x Dirt: +:30 Total: 6:34 Rode to Rutgers Ecological Preserve and then meandered back to my local trails (Edith Stevens) via the Zombie Greenway and another section of local trail that @pygmypony has curated. It’s been a while since I’ve had a “long” ride. I need to...

    1/15 Riding time: 1:12 Took the road bike out again on this brisk January morning. My layering was mostly on point but I could use a better pair of thermal bibs. Anyone have any recommendations for thermal bibs good for road riding down into sub 30º temps?

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    If you are willing to build a frame Specialized had a killer sale going on Stumpy Evo framesets not too long ago. Not sure if that is still a thing…

    1/14 Riding Time: 1:01 Halloween: +:30 Total: 1:31 Took the road bike out for an hour before heading to the first youth basketball game of the day. I‘ve been disappointed in myself lately. It’s been way to easy to manufacture reasons not to ride whether it be weather, traffic, whatever...

    Is strava going from suck to blow?

    Through Apple the current subscription price is either $11.99 monthly (!!!!!) or $79.99 annually. I’m up for renewal next week and I honestly don’t know if it’s still worth it at $80/yr.

    Post Your Doggo [woof]

    He was already named Dasher so we are going to go with Dash. Yeah same here. We said we were going to wait and traveling for the holidays was a distraction. After the holidays were over and things settled down there was a void that needed to be filled for sure.

    Post Your Doggo [woof]

    Lost our 7 year old cocker spaniel before Christmas to hermangiosarcoma. Cancer does indeed suck! While it was pretty shitty for the family we are ready for a fresh start so yesterday I picked up our new pup. He’s border collie and most likely lab and already acclimating nicely!

    Bike Lights 2023

    Another vote for the Outbound Evo/Hangover combo. Can’t go wrong. I was an early adopter like @shrpshtr325 and also have the OG Focal series light with the external battery. It’s all really hight quality stuff.

    Had a busy busy week back at work. With that, my son’s youth basketball games, and the poopy weather I had a disappointing riding week. I was going stir crazy but I did a fake indoor ride yesterday before heading up to CT to pick up a new puppy. 1/7 1:02 Riding Time +:30 Dirt 1:32 Total...

    1/1 Riding time: 1:03 Halloween: +:30 Total: 1:30 Kicked off the new year on the road bike. I apologize to the roadie purists out there if I broke any rules by laying the bike on the ground to get the picture.

    12/31 Riding Time: 1:13 Closed out 2022 on the road bike. It was a pretty lackluster year for me on the bike. Just because of life getting in the way, I only rode about 1,200 miles, which is way down from the past few years. On the bright side, it’s these little contests that get me out on...
