160. pfffft.

I want to ride some trails. Very badly. The weather has been for a while but it's back to now, I think I may try to go early tomorrow morning before work.

Trails are all trashed right now - freeze/thaw cycle plus rain. Big ol'

But I agree. Dying to ride right now. Can't wait to hit the trails in Florida.

The US National WHitewater Center, which has our largest trail network, has had the trails closed since December and they opened back this week. I think I might go ride tomorrow AM, might be shit, but worth a try at least. I miss it.

You ride a 58?

I have no idea.

I'm 160 always. I can eat nothing and stay the same weight, or eat a truckload of hamberders and no difference.

Fuck you.

You take that steel steed out for a ride yet or is it just wall art?

[Desertbreh]

I've taken it out a few times.....bought some nice Shimano shoes, etc. etc. We have this thing going in in the Valley called the CV Link. http://www.coachellavalleylink.com/. It's only partially completed. That's where I would rather do my cycling than the streets. We do have fair amount of bike lanes, but the arterial speeds in this area are insanely high, and I really am not interested in being maimed by somebody texting and driving 60 mph.

TLDR: 90% wall art. Seller was 10/10 though, delivered as advertised and it rides really nice.

I did like that bike it, rode better than my Cervelo.

Looks like these guys have a Saturday "C" ride, and vintage bike conversational rides on some Sundays, if you wanted to get more into it.

He’s probably between a 56 and a 58.

Pex if you want to borrow it let me know. Even if you don't buy it, just to try out choad riding. My All City has a second wheelset with slicks now so I can choad if I want / care to.

[Johnny_P]

Also, anyone in the NJ/PA area interested in attending/participating?

It's a ton of fun. Plus beer and food and bikes. And shenanigans.

I would lose hard

Good tip, bike clubs are one of those things that is always on the "maybe next weekend" list.

Might have to take you up on that some time. I have a spare set of SPD pedals too...

Anything else I'd need to choad?

Spandex is helpful, wind resistance at speed is real. But really just a helmet and flat pedals would suffice. Would look funny to ride a Cervelo with cargo shorts and a MTB helmet and FiveTen shoes but plenty of people show up to our road group rides on knobby tire cross bikes or in T shirts.

I found that on a local bike shop website. Talking to guys at the LBS is likely the easiest/fastest way to find out about local rides that won't kill you.

I look funny every day.

Philly area peoples, come out and play bikes on Saturday. I think it'll be a 9AM race start. $10 to race, course is roughly 1 mile long so there will be multiple laps. CX and MTB are welcome! Proceeds go to our nonprofit sponsors.

FYI bois, this is postponed, date TBD. WAY too fucking muddy, we'd end up destroying the park.

Fuckin' A man..... I should watch that Anthem and see if he still has it in a month, see how firm he really is on price...

It's a great price as it is. That Trance though, I think you'd like it more. It has more slam-into-shit ability than the Anthem.

I mean, they both have a ton of slam-into-shit ability.

Trance definitely has more of an attitude, IMO.

You should buy the Trance and Apex the Anthem.

Not a bad call. Could be worth checking out the Trance.
