I Am Jacks Wet Dream Started a new thread Behind The Zion Curtain-Utah Roll Call
8/18/2014 4:25am Hi, my name's Tyler and I love pranks and pretty soap. Seems the economy has gotten the best of me as of late so I'm just down to one mountain bike, a commuter a bunch of jerseys with my last name scrawled across the back and a big pile of tires left over from last season so now I skid...

I Am Jacks Wet Dream Started a new thread Barbara Bush or Beatrice Arthur's corpse?
8/17/2014 2:47am Man, these Forums are dry.... You're the last man (or woman) on earth and the only two women left are Barbara Bush and Beatrice Arthur's corpse. Both don't like each other and once you choose one, the other is going to get really jealous, upset and will march to the other side of the world to be away from you...

I Am Jacks Wet Dream Started a new thread Is VitalMTB and It's Advertisers Killing Our Sport?
8/15/2014 6:22pm Seems the 'Grassroots' debate amongst all 5 Vital members died off. Probably, due in part to my douchebaggery. Oh well. I got the impression, in so many words, from the Vital admin that piped in right out of the box and those employees of this sites' advertisers that sponsorships for those who are anything but 'pros' are bad not only...

1/22/2010 4:34pm sofa king, In no way would I want to take on a job like that. A. I don't have the time due to a full time 'real' job. B. I did a short stint in retail and I imagine it would be too close to that experience (having to deal with whiney b!tches like myself, etc...) [i]I'm not envious of...

4/21/2016 10:18am sspomer, in so many words that what I was doing-alone. Problem was that what little info I was given was either incorrect or changed without any notice. That lead to a bit of confusion on the forum. Example that comes to mind, although not that important in the grand scheme, was that the Trail Bike Class was supposed to be...

4/21/2016 10:18am sspomer, Thanks for chiming in. And I think that's an excellent idea. Here's another thought: I've bagged on our Utah State DH Race series a bit, which includes traditional DH, Super D and now a Trail Bike DH class. When I started competing in 2006, mainly doing Super D and a DH event here and there, there was a healthy...
I Am Jacks Wet Dream Added a reply to are all these grassroots teams killing the our sport?
1/4/2010 4:26pm The world is really coming to an end now. After the Transition, Knolly, Fox Racing Shox grassroots offers that popped up last Nov/Dec one would think the sport would be coming to a halt with some of the opinions thrown out here. I just opened the email account linked to my Sponsorhouse profile and now Corsair and Leatt Brace are...
I Am Jacks Wet Dream Added a reply to Is VitalMTB and It's Advertisers Killing Our Sport?
4/21/2016 10:18am Hmmm....well I almost went with the 'Is USA Cycling hurting our sport?' thread instead as I've seen some heated debates on that topic elsewhere, but that seemed a bit played out but could also be thrown into the mix. Reason it came to mind is that I came across yet another reminder email to pony up another $60 for 2010...

4/21/2016 10:18am Von, there was no offense taken on my part at all. I think you made a valid point/example and I just happened to use it as I think there are some people and companies out there who may feel that way about the casual racer. In particular, I would venture to lump the likes of USA Cycling into that boat...

4/21/2016 10:18am Well Von, I was rubbing Go-Ride and you guys a bit. But keep in mind that intertwined amongst all my bitching I do think you guys are thinking outside the box and that is what I was trying to drive home. A. You have an online presence. B. Your shop is open later than most during the week. That's why...

4/21/2016 10:18am oldmandave, I'm not discounting or disagreeing with anything you've written as like k.Shiz mentioned it gives another important perspective. However, I think that shops like Go-Ride and The Fix are in a odd conundrum. Sure Go-Ride could be considered an LBS by those of us who live in Salt Lake. But to others living outside the state it's just another...
I Am Jacks Wet Dream Added a reply to are all these grassroots teams killing the our sport?
4/21/2016 10:18am k.shiz and shop owners, Like I mentioned, I think this debate boils down the hard feelings of the bike shop owner vs. the companies/people using grassroots deals-with a bit of gray area inbetween. I honestly wish I didn't 'need' to use those deals nor shop at JensonUSA, etc. But if you're a shop owner that's struggling and feel these deals/companies/e-tailers...
I Am Jacks Wet Dream Added a reply to are all these grassroots teams killing the our sport?
4/21/2016 10:18am Well, I admit I do order from the likes of JensonUSA and have for almost a decade. I'm not a fanboy of the place and feel their CS has gone to pot the past couple of years, but like the Fix and Go-Ride they also have store fronts and usually when I call Jenson I get the same guy "Lee"...

4/21/2016 10:18am k.shiz, Perhaps I didn't explain my point well with the 'music industry' comparision. What I was trying to point out was that the way people were acquiring music was changing and rather than adapt and change their business model to survive, most did nothing and eventually went the way of the dinosaur. Obviously, the way everyone is buying everything has...
