what do you ride? I’ve found for me the best set up is a super grippy front (when the front loses traction it is a bad day…) and faster rolling rear. Also I can’t recommend specialized tires enough. They perform amazing and if you watch sales...

Old school Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra for me! Settled on that after building up an old Colnago, an Allan Record Carbonio and a 1972 Mercian. Used to be a hobby….build, ride for a season or two then sell. The Merckx rode so well it became the...

Picked up this old Fuji road bike from a friends property that was among a pile a scrap metal. Heading for the trash. So I figure I take it home and give it a new life. Here it is. Before and after.

Great restoration, Jorge!! :clap:

Yes. It was between a Krampus and KM, and I picked this one up as a new build in 2021.

I sold this bike last spring, and had not thought about a bike since. Slow day in the office Friday and I typed "Surly" into the FB marketplace search and there she was for sale again. Had to be fate, so I bought it back. Did 2 rides over the...

I was told the blue pit didn't like men. She barked and growled at me from her kennel, but decided that I was ok after getting a free couch. Her puppy is afraid of her shadow, but we are going to work on that.

Here’s and update on the “ I AM NOT GETTING ANOTHER DOG” They all get along like grade school friends. The golden, who was seriously depressed, has come to life and engages with both of them all the time. The puppy is a baby shark in disguise...

We officially became fosters today. Claire and Sugar

That's Lady MacBeth. She's an Irish Terrier. Her job is to attract attention when we stop to take pictures. Walking the streets of Dublin on a Saturday with 6 Wolfhounds tends to attract the eye. If you want attention, that's definitely a way to...

Them's some big asz dogs!

It takes about 30 seconds to fall in love with them. Ask me how I know....

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1RXUB3Vgwe/ Just found this. Wayne and all his wolfhound pups. We also met a couple wolfhound working dogs, Hoi and Boi.

Happy International Dog Day, everyone! I've been in Ireland the last week, and a friend recommended The Irish Wolfhound Experience while I was in Dublin. The Wolfhound Experience – The Best Experience in Ireland. The Wolfhound Experience – The...

My most recent loss is noted in the following thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/rip-calfee.1340792/ Got the stripped down frame hanging on the wall in my garage. Loss included the med expenses associated with 3 broken ribs and a...

Currently have a Kuat Sherpa mounted to my cooler rack (so it swings away). Looking pretty hard at a 1-up or Kuat Piston to eliminate ANY frame/fork contact.

Gas Cans are Removed from Rack. Gas is Siphoned into now Empty Truck Tank Gas Cans are Put behind Tent to keep them out of Sight. Rack is Removed to make Swinging Door Cargo Accessible. Picture of Super Siphon - 5/8" Tubing - They work Great...

Body shop guys had a spot, so she's torn back down and off for the spray liner (bottom of tub and interior) and paint. Going back to the original Rustic Green :bounce:
