TRex Added a reply to Were You Guilty Of It: Big Seats

4/11/2011 7:18am
I had an SDG Big Boy saddle, it was on my Mountain Cycle San Andreas frame, with White Brothers DC110 fork. 24 inch wheels with 2.7 Intense tires, Hope brakes that you had to adjust by hand. Those titanium bars with a shim in the clamp area, fat squishy grips, and something like a 50 tooth chainring. That's right, I...

Yes. The old course used to go straight then right, but that area is flooded and saturated with water beyond repair. The new track has to go left.

There is a lot of maintenance going on, but that is not the only goal. In the past, SOC has put up some $$$ to get the course ready to ride every year. With this project, the SOC should require less maintenance in later years, so if there is a budget it can go to more new improvements instead of...

TRex Added a comment about press release USA Cycling Announces 2011 Gravity National Championship

All the dates are bad for scheduling, seems to me like this choice was about as good as any. If it was earlier in the year on an open weekend, would big teams and support rather criss cross the country multiple times for St. Anne, Windham, Crankworks, Idaho (for xc), back to Beech and then back to Interbike later? It may not be better than earlier, but its not that much worse either. All we should really care about is the courses. Can I put in a request for a smooth, flat 4X and very safe DH with nothing to...

That's what Christmas time is all about. Where's the spirit of the Marzocchi tramps? Those unfortunate girls hanging around Tony Ellsworth at Outdoor Demo? The Azonic prostitutes? We need the Holiday videos from all those women 'getting their names out there' in the biking world. sspomer, can there be some kind of contest for this? Don't you dare put rules or limits on it.

I've been on the Vivid Air since July and I'm a big fan. I've written about my setup on it, that might go up here in a bit...

Can I add a 'Like' to FCTRY's comment, or is that crap reserved for people who like Facebook? I too say eff it to the wrong tool for the job. On a positive note, at least it wasn't a sunset session, slo-mo jump or some idiot asking which flat pedal is the lightest.

TRex Added a reply to Inverted boxxer?

Too bad you think it is a copy because it is upside down. That 'boxxers' had a different axle, legs, sliders and crown, damping, but you know, it is a copy.

TRex Added a reply to National Champs rumors

11/15/2010 10:13am
I'm of the opinion that it just has to be a fun race. If it is short, fine. If it is longer, great. It just needs to be fun for everyone attending. It DOES NOT have to resemble Champery. I don't know if anything in the US does other than the backside of Telluride. One race will definitely not get...

TRex Added a comment about press release 2011 Nevada State DH Championships at Bootleg Canyon

11/8/2010 1:12pm
Might as well make that the National Championships DH event since no other venue has been named and XC is pretty much decided. We could get our Nat. Champs out of the way early in the year, and get on with the drinking, gambling, and strippers. If anyone else has any other suggestions for venues, let it out, because USAC will forget the DH event as soon as they can. They might have forgotten already.
