I have 2 sitting in my garage from my Forester... free to good home.

dude... it's 11 miles. That's about a 30min ride. Plus you get to break it up by going into various grocery stores.

Well if you're buyin....

Glad they're making it right. If anybody is free on Sunday, Nov 20... here's a good ride for a good cause: http://cranksgivingportland.blogspot.com/ ride/scavenger hunt for food to benefit the local food bank. Who's in??? Ted already said he's going to wear a turkey costume.

Buy Local. Buy Maine. Is it a business or just a dude who happens to have lots of wood?

so did you pull the trigger yet?? I picked up a chain tensioner so I can complete my singlespeed carbon Merckx AXM. Not that I expect to ride it anytime soon...

That's what I ran on my 26" mtb when i made it a single speed. Gets a little tough at times but overall the 2:1 ratio is a good starting point for a 26er. I have really been enjoying my 29er since converting to a SS. It was a 1x9 before but the simplicity of the SS is perfect.

Dude! You're huge! 34/17! Damn! That might be a little tough on rooty, rocky hill climbs Both the Kilo and Messenger look pretty good. I've seen a lot of folks on the Moto mountain bikes. From what I hear, they are decent.

if you're looking for a beater... go with the cheap aluminum SS road bike. If you want a road bike to do longer rides, get a road bike. There should be some sweet deals at shops around town as they try to dump 2010 models to make room for ski gear. And if you're buying a road bike to ride...

Personally, I hate AL frames. I'll never go back. As soon as my cross frame is sold my house will be AL bike free. Carbon, Titanium or Steel are the way to go in my opinion. You can get away with the cheapie components on the BikesDirect bike but my concern would be that you want to use it...

Thanks for hanging out and cheering Inski! I was amazed by the number of people along the 100 mile route that were just sitting out and cheering as riders went by. Never seen anything like it. On a ride of that length it is very motivating to see people of all ages cheering you on. At a few...

i could've done the 50 easily... the 100 was a 'challenge'. I started pretty close to the front and we blew by a ton of peeps to start. Passed Horner & Leipheimer but I think they flew by when we were at the 2nd rest stop. Finished in 5hr 43min which was good for getting dropped multiple...

That was some sweet looking Subie item you put out!! When i saw the black leggy w/ black wheel I said... must be Inski's!! haha! Your road was the best part of the course... freshly paved, no traffic, and no monster hills! Ted - which route did you end up doing?? 50 or 100?

Yeah... rode the B12 in the Solo Singlespeed class for some foolish reason. Just kept on riding... 10 laps (80 miles). Finished 11th out of 17. Not shabby for a first time solo and my 3rd ride on a single speed. Learned a lot about nutrition, hydration & motivation so if I decide to...

SHe's a 55cm frame

I'm trying to sell my Trek cyclocross frame...

I've been riding like crazy (well, as much as one can do with 2 kids) because the Bradbury Twelve is this saturday then I have the 100mi Dempsey Challenge on Oct 3. Ugh.

Kettler trikes are bomb proof. We looked around for a used one but could never find one. I was looking at the Kettler swingsets too. I like the idea of powder coated steel... Hey! Anybody need a new seatpost? I'm trying to sell off my dad's Thomson Elite. 31.6mm x 367mm. Black. $55...

But the Specialized is the hotness. Bike Shop does 50% back trade in during 1st year... 40% in second... so... We'll be able to upgrade to the 16" Giant next summer if need be. As for durability... we've already broken two wheels (front and one rear) on the cheapie RadioFlyer trike. Got a...

I got a new helmet for father's day! woot! I'm stylin' now... of course, had to go back to the bike shop because it was a rubbin' my noggin the wrong way so ended up exchanging for another helmet... and... ended up buying the kiddo a sweet Specialized 12" Hotrock. Was it worth the fat price...
