Holy shit... I literally LOL'd. Better be careful with that dropper post.

Finally found a use for the new food scrap bins the city now requires us to use. Perfect storage for the One-up bike rack.

Do you already compost?

No. I generate pretty minimal food scraps. Either put them down the in-sink disposal or if I have more put my waste sack in the neighbor's bin. (She is cool with me doing that).

Don't know if this has been posted elsewhere but Ricky sure brings the funny

Gotta love that video capture and FB post took precedence over 911 call.

Not to mention walking through toxic smoke and then trying to blow on the smoking battery. Then chain smoking cigarettes.

Based on his decision making abilities, I'd guess his demise will not come from long term cigarette smoking.

GT / continental announced their new team on social media. Notably, the team includes Danny Hart.

But the amusing part is that the team also includes Chris Cummings, who the announcement labels "cumdog millionaire." Pretty funny that not only did someone think that was a good idea, but it made it all the way through to the official announcement.

THAT is amusing

The Fezzari --> Ari rebrand effort, mostly the giant fuck-up it turned into on pinkbike, amuses me. Everything about it is cringy, including their press conference parody vid. Any Fezzinfluencers on TGR?

That's pretty damn funny. I'm always kinda impressed at how bad some brands are at press releases and marketing.

Oh man, I saw this going down yesterday but it didn’t dieas I suspected. Instead it has bloomed perfectly into a steaming pile of poo.

10/10 for botched press release in a difficult market.

Man, Utah is a weird place. Utah County, it's another MLM planet. Folks down there who buy into these brands go balls deep and will defend them to the ends of the earth. They could have re branded "Feznazis" and these mouth breathers would still carry the torch. The local Facefuck group is chock full of those influencers. I'm there just to poke the bear.

Could you imagine if you'd dropped $4k on a bike that because of a re-brand was worth $1k six hours later?

Hearsay that no one has ever seen the president of our local trail org. ride a bike.

Do you live in Boulder?

I spent some time on a slingshot in 1990? Road pretty well. I agree, same as every other xc bike, steep, whippet.

Can’t say I’m a huge fan, but I saw her riding once. Granted, it was the ‘beach’ trail down by the river and the high school bridge.
A few years ago I posted something lamenting changes to Kitty Charmer when they built that goofy Half Ridge trail, and she got pissed and invited me to ride up there with her and check out what they were doing. But then she bailed on riding and just showed up at the shop and pedantically talked down to me for a while.
