I rode the cross bike in Belmont on Tuesday. It was straight
Cleared a bunch of logs on it too. The new tires are back there. Can't go as fast as a MTB over rough stuff and there's more hike-a-bike with it at least until I get more comfortable on it. Best part? The ride to/from the trailhead is a non-event. On the MTB it's a complete pain in the ass because of the knobby tires and you feel like you're dragging a boat anchor. The cross bike eats that shit up.
Also the 1:1 gearing is pretty great for the trails. Lower would be nice but I'm pretty happy as it is now. Just takes some more out of saddle effort to get up the steeper hills.
Favorite bike

I think I'm gonna be Wissatrickin' on Saturday morning with my buddy AJ if anyone wants to join. We don't ride super hard, more just try and have fun and hit the flow trails. And he likes to skip the hard climbs lol.
Maybe I'll try and find the jump bowl.

I enjoy them. He's a bit of a and just wants to brap around and doesn't get the satisfaction of destroying himself on Monster or the like, lol.
Surely we can ride in the morning on Sunday. Mercer?

Goose is solid. I was out that way a few weeks ago and did Goose, walked over to Mad Rex and sat at the bar and had a few spicy margaritas, and went up to Frankford hall for a few.
