76 views (including several mags by now) of an indescript bit of dust ribbon isn't going to alert much of anyone to much of anything.

The concern is more that it's near the Bay Area. There's not many good sanctioned trails, and there's a shitload of assholes on ebikes that will pulverize it more than it already is if word gets out widely.
We pretty aggressively nuke Strava DH segments for that reason too.
But bro... does he even lift?Quote:

Half his vids are of "secret trails." He doesn't name them or post locations, but there is usually enough clues that anyone with 2 brain cells and a bit of knowledge of the area can piece together where they are. For those with one or fewer brain cells, knowing the trail exists is the first step in tracking it down. 11k followers is a lot of people to be asking where that trail is.
Shit for brains. And speaking of shit, he eats shit more often than any dog I've ever met. Mediocre riders. Zero social awareness.
In the linked vid he drives a couple hours north to ride a secret trail. But the road is gated shut as all National forests in CA are closed. So he drives to Santa Barbara, comes across another closure but rides the trail anyways. Maybe he's Clint's cousin?

So back about the first of May, I bought a Hope 10t-48t XD 11-speed cassette from CRC (and accompanying proprietary freehub) for my trail bike. I installed it along with a new Connex chain & RF chainring. It's now skipping terribly under any sort of torque. I probably have less than 500 miles on this cassette (I also have a SS and DH bike that get equal use in season). Apparently the alloy Hope uses for the 4 largest cogs comes from some cheese factory and only lasts a few hundred miles. Part of the sales pitch was that you could just replace the alum. spider with the 4 large cogs once worn, but the product sucked so bad that Hope has discontinued it and you can't get the replacement cogs. That's the 3rd strike for Hope (after two failed Pro 2 rear hubs; a split hub shell and a spun ratchet) so I'm done with them. Gonna put the 10t-42t SRAM cassette that came with the bike back on and suck it up while I wait to see if e13 got it right this time with the new Helix. Don't want to try and warranty it, as it's not the fault of CRC. Just infuriating that Hope would sell a product that uses such an inferior grade of aluminum. It's not as though they were treading new ground regarding alloy selection.
Mountain bike "pants." Good lord.
I warned you. You have no one but yourselves to blame, you pants-wearing weirdos.
Nobody cares if you wear a skirt. TGR is quite liberal for the most part.Quote:

I wore pants riding tonight. It got down to 30f and despite not even having insulation my legs and stuff were comfy. Also I'm going to say it's marginally more "normal" looking than leg warmers under shorts.
As for a rant, I had my new helmet and light setup all ready to go and then when I went to put the helmet light on I discovered one of the little tabs that holds it in place was broken. Have never even used it.
Commencal
1. $130 to ship a bike from one state over and have it take seven days.
2. Decided internal routing was a good idea on a dirt jumper.
You tried them? Trail oriented pants have gotten really good the last couple years. I wear em basically anytime it’s under 60 degrees. Fox Flex Air and Giro Havoc’s are good examples.Quote:

[emoji3595] I did a fatbike ride Sunday with my Dakine Thrillium pants and a lightweight Icebreaker layer underneath. That was perfect for the conditions- about 30 degrees with 6 inches of fresh. Very happy with them.
I feel personally attacked.
MTB pants are great. If you can find a pair!Quote:

Well, this morning the estimated delivery updated to tomorrow, so I'm feeling less ranty about #1. The cost is still ridiculous, though. Last year I shipped a bike to Kansas via Bikeflights and it cost $50.Quote:
