Dang. I know you're lactose intolerant too so you might just be way more sensitive than I am.
I can put away 2 burgers from MacDoe and it doesn't phase my in the slightest.

Elastomer suspension stems are back! Any thoughts on this?

Looks awesome, like a normal stem. And limited travel, suspension provided by squishing elastomer blocks, enduro bearings.... solid piece.

One of my pizza buddies had to return something to backcountry. He called their support number and the guy answered saying he was with competitive cyclist, lol.fledonfoot wrote: ↑Tue Aug 14, 2018 5:22 pmI have this at backcountry.com - owned by the same company and probably the same people.

We rode. We crashed. We hit some harder trails that were fun/stupid. She washed out on a slow, steep, tight switchback, got caught in the pedal and frame and ended up spraining her ankle.

The blue-grade technical downhill trails at Blue are definitely gnarly.

I really need to get out there sometime. As an alternative we could all meat up at White Clay. It's flowy and fast and lots of trails. Def an all-day adventure type ride.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Aug 22, 2018 9:43 amI'm down for Blue but I need to get you fools out to Raystown this fall if the weather ever improves.
It's awesome.

Lots of washout on the older trails. The newer stuff seems to be holding up well.

Noticed a gash in the rear tire of the cross bike yesterday, so ordered a new one today. $50. I guess that's not horribad but dammit that tire didn't even last a full season
I think it's from my epic Wissahickon Blue Ribbon ride I did. I got a 1" long razor edge rock stuck in the tire and it cut straight through it. Hadn't been an issue, but now the thing is opening up and I can see the tube
Meanwhile my MTB has knobs ripped off the rear tire, casing visible, and it's doing just fine. IDK. Maybe next year I'll switch these tires out for something else.

Ordered a new handlebar. I cut too much off when I chopped them down. Going back up to 760mm/30” from 28.
Still shopping for road bike shoes.

When I’m happy with a width, I’ll buy some carbon bars.
