toddtoth Added a reply to What Would You Do for MTB if You Won the $1,300,000,000 Powerball Jackpot?

1/8/2016 9:59am

I like dreaming. And I'm in the game since I dropped 10 large (that's $10) on Powerball last night. I'd build lots of trails all over the country. Easy ones, hard ones, pump tracks, natural, bike parks. This would be the bulk of the spending. IMO trails are a big gateway to getting people riding. I'd sponsor local team and...

Yeah, I don't know. What's the point of needing to shift if you're not pedaling? Plus the chain is moving all the time now. That's more chain/cog wear for an upside that I'm missing.

You can borrow my Nomad anytime (you'll need to drop shock pressure in half) if I can spin the Specialized when you get it.

You mentioned it quick prior, but what's your trail bike set-up of today? I ask anyone I know about this because I'm insecure about my abilities and need any edge I can find from equipment.

This is a great answer overall. I agree there's something to having all disciplines at events. So much more interesting and highlights diversity more. I might be looking through rose colored Oakley's (Steve Giberson quote, I can't take credit for that gem) a bit, but the '90's events were so great when you had DH, XC, 4-cross all at the...

We all know the answer to this one.

I'll be interested in hearing back on this one. It's a good question. I kinda old but remember each new thing - QR seat posts, V-brakes, bar ends, no bar ends, the newest tire - as being innovative at the time. Point is looking back it's easy to say bikes 15, 20 years ago were piles, but technology was moving...

I forgot you worked at Bicycle Center. I'll get you my address, how many BC rub-on stickers can you send me?

Since we're all dreaming a bit here I'm going for two places. Squamish for the summer - pedal to the trailhead, close to Vancouver, close to Whistler, close to tons of other stuff I have yet to ride. Santa Cruz for the rest of the year - great trails, good food, close to everything you need.

What's the model / specs of your ideal trail bike of today? What's the best live show you've seen in the past few years?

I'm Todd. I work at Vital selling ads, not the super fun stuff that Spomer and iceman2058 do, although I'm getting pretty good at mixing business and pleasure. I've been around bikes for a long time...and hope to be around them for much longer. I grew up riding/racing BMX in Ohio, have been riding mountain bikes since the '90's, my...

Thinking a short-travel 29 with boost for a new trail bike. That Trek Fuel EX 9.9 looks good. I bet Santa Cruz has a new 29 up their sleeve. Patience grasshopper. That's what I keep telling myself.
