Mickey, always with the solid tech answer - thanks that actually made sense and informed me. 1 point for the internet today. BeigeWolf, is that a pup in your pic? What happened to the murder-loving beast of the past? Also, 1 point to you bc ... more »

So, that is an XC casing, mated to a DH tread, glued to the rim?

Update Frame: $300 obo comes with headset and seat collar.

I think he had most of that pretty well pegged. I was expecting more "NOTS" and a few more mentions of the women like Tracy and Jill. I was surprised he didn't riff on a few other guys, namely some big contenders who finished outside of the Top10. But, ... more »

@sspomer, thanks for posting the bag check, I was trying to find that a couple of weeks ago. Also, this opening round is going to be something special, more than in years past I think due to the shake-up last year.

Reason for selling: I'm too big for this rad machine at this point in my life. It hurts to sell, but I'd rather see someone getting sideways on this bad larry than seeing it hanging in the garage.

Ordered the Dakine Reload. We'll see how it works out! I'll give it a review once I have it in front of me and have put it to the test.

"I just felt like I had to go out and smoke that guy." Like a boss...

"cyclone corkscrew" - we need more of these.

Neat. Sidenote; why did "Venessa Hudgens Bares All" show up as the #10 recommend video after that clip ended? Does she get hit with a hammer in the video or something? That would be awful...it's okay though, we all know she is stronger than carbon. You ... more »
