  1. So I took the new bike for a workout. The maiden voyage was certainly a
    little bit of everything. We hit Buffalo Creek and I have to say this
    thing climbs every bit as well, if not better than the Titus Racer-X.
    So the bike got to experience, dry conditions, rocks, decomposed
    granite, sand, and then all the above mixed with a torrential downpour.
    Pure fun!

    We came across quite a few downed trees going up Tramway.

    Thunder, cold rain, mud, and a smile. Now I know why this bike is so
    popular out here.

    a mountain biker, not peacock roadie.

    🙂

    The GPS? I was actually using it to flag waypoints where the trees were
    down, so the rangers can get to them with the chainsaw. There were
    quite a few [censored] already braiding the trail instead of going over
    the fall.

    No. I knew you were kidding. I'll say it now. I like the bike pants.
    They hold my nuts in place. When I ride in shorts I get nasty
    chaffing, even with sportslick. I'm a hairy guy, what can I say?

    I know, TMI.

    I finally stripped the computer off the fixie. Now the only thing
    mounted to the bars is a bell. It really is amazing the psychological
    effect: it's the closest I can get to feeling like a kid again.
    Actually, I vividly remember the first bicycle speedometer I got when
    I was a kid. One of those insane bulky cable-operated chrome Schwinn
    things:

    My dad mounted it to the bars, and I took off down the street,
    pedaling as hard as I could and staring intently at the speedo, and
    ran straight into a phone pole.

    Back to the thread, however: RAL really does look like a big beet.
