Bikes and Tundra

I can understand why, it doesn't look like a good landing and it would be easy to wad up on it.

 

Post ride pics today. Temps are finally dropping a bit!

 

Trek Roscoe? That's a great looking color scheme.

 

Yep! Thank you! It's a great little bike.

 

Nice, I recently upgraded to a Roscoe and it's awesome. A tad heavy, but a blast.

 

Which one? I would have gone for the 8 but my wife was getting one at the same time as me and i couldn't justify $1000 more for two 8's and I definitely couldn't justify getting an 8 when she just got a 7.

 

Roscoe 7. I went to by an Xcal 8 but ended up walking out with a Roscoe - thankfully they had both in stock at the time when I bought it a couple months ago and got to try both out. Big upgrade from my Marlin 5 I bought at the beginning of this year

 

Right on. Mine does great on the trails here.

 

some super nice bikes here, wow. i've got a century team carbon fiber road bike and old skewl gary fisher cronus. they're older but like my early second gen, i look for quality products that will last and just take care of them.

 

Anybody else getting out this weekend? Thankful to have the Whitewater Center within 30 minutes of the house.

 

I didn’t get out this weekend, last weekend I did, a bud sent this shot of me. Looks like I’m trying to get the bike up over the landing.

 

Love the color scheme. Great bike.

 

Roscoe model?

 

Yessir, Roscoe 7. It's pretty rowdy for a hardtail

 

I have 3 ceiling mounted bike lifts in good condition free of charge you pay the shipping I can do usps, ups, fedex zip code 98321.

If you can take all 3 that would be great or at least if they have to be split shipments I’d like make one trip.. lol

I’d hate to throw them out and thought one of you might want them.

The Amazon pic for reference is for two I have 3.

My apologies for being off topic since I no longer have a mountain bike
Mods if this should be in market place I’m sorry I just thought for free this would be ok.

 

What's the WWC riding like? I have been there once but it was to raft and a day trip. Love that place for that. Also is there camping there or near by?

EDIT: I guess I could look all this up, sorry it's late and just posting cuz I'm lazy.

 

it’s great, there are a ton of trails and there’s a trail for every skill set. As far as camping, I’m not 100% sure. I’ve seen some RVs set up in there but never any tents. Not sure what area you are from but a lot of folks I know like camping at Uwharrie. But that’s a little ways away from WWC. But the WWC is such a great place, the annual pass there is a great deal if you like rafting and those types of activities.

 

My new 16 TRD comes saturday (already been stalking the forum heavily haha), but in the mean time here's my bike! Yeti sb130 fully custom built, the first bike I love so much I won't sell it within a year for a new one! haha

 

Nice whip! I have a 130 myself and love it! Did you ever ride it with the air shock out back or did you just go straight to the coil? I am really....really tempted to try a coil on my 130 as I've never ridden one and very curious.

 

I actually took the dpx2 off before riding it, but I rode one on an sb5.5c beforehand so wanted to try something new. After riding this coil I doubt I’ll go back, it’s just always so composed in rough terrain and the lack of maintenance is nice. I do run a progressive spring which gives it more pop that you’re used to seeing on air shocks. The only big difference is if you try to pop a feature and don’t pop at the right time, the coil just sinks in the travel whereas the air shock will always give you that poppy feeling.

 

Is that the DB inline coil shock?

 

You bet. Chose it over the piggyback version as I’m more of a trail rider than a full on downhiller. The weight difference over an air shock is only about 100 grams total which is great!

 

I don’t have a Tundra (yet) but I do have some bikes

2018 Trek Domane


2020 Santa Cruz Tallboy

 

Went for a ride on the Racine County trails this morning out of Wind Lake.

 

Got out for a short ride this weekend with my family and was able to break in the tailgate pad that I got from my brother. Works really well.

 

Gotta reward the wearing out of a cassette with a new one! Should shift much better now.

 

Got some free time this weekend and the weather was perfect for some singletrack.

 

Gorgeous late summer/early fall morning here in North Mississippi....finally got to take the new whip on its maiden voyage (besides tooling around the neighborhood).



And then rode with our normal Tuesday night club road ride too....lots of time on bicycles today.

Sorry, no pics of the road bike with the Tundra.....




In the words of that great philosopher Ice Cube, "today was a good day."

 

That truck life bru
Nice flow trail in same direction as the dump

This is invaluable to put the tailgate down with the equip-d. Looks planned that way. I bought a swing out but like this way better. Swing out rak-attach for sale actually if anyone interested.
