I need snows for the LGT this year. M3s still available? Second dibs behind Boon, I guess...

Ya- need a new crankset too. And I might build up the kona, sell the dean....meh

I'll probably do the same, bag wise. My choices are road bike or 5" travel bike, unless I can get a singlespeed built in time...

I might ride my MTB as well. Just toss on a backpack. If you get tired, we'll stop for a beer mid-race.

You betcha. Be good to see some other two wheeled MSers out there too! Andrew? Pedro? Jim?

I have some coming off my LGT this weekend. I'm in Portland.

Cranksgiving should be pretty fun. All you need is $20 and a bike. I'll buy a round of post-ride libations for any MSers that show!

Keeper!

I might be down for the snows if this set gets split up. I need some!

Second dibs on tires!

Been there. Glad you're ok. Time for a CF hood?!

Stepped in poo last night. Thank goodness for 'all weather' floormats

You might try that 51cm and see how it fits. I think Mike is right- a 52/3cm might be better. It's a lot of bike for $450 though. If that's no good, I would hit the classifieds. Mike and I were talking about this last night, and we both thought a singlespeed would be pretty boring on the road...

At that price, you really can't go wrong. Resale would likely be $150-250 if you hate it. Generally, AL bike tend to be very snappy and stiff, and pretty light. I think it's probably worth a try, especially if paired with some decent shoes and pedals. And gloves. A few other thoughts particular...

I haven't ridden a aluminum track bike, but that thing looks stiff. You might find it more harsh that you hoped. Of course, AL is also wicked responsive. Of course, for $360, you really can't go wrong. Have you thought about a 'Cross bike? They are a bit more money, but would give you a more...

Um...I'm not an expert, but aren't those 17" LGT wheels?

Gotta like the butt crack on "car mode"
