  1. my bronson is 150/150. i probably don't use all of it but is a cushy bitch. 27.5 is good in our knarly , rocky terrain, but 29er rolls better. i removed a token from my fox 36 to make it even more supple. i can rebuild it myself when the time comes, as well as the rear. 400 psi of nitrogen in those little rear shocks!
  2. Haha, I still have some me coffee cake and a shitload of Girl Scout cookies , ice cream in the freezer . You would think I was fat but I’m not , lol
  3. Pasta and sausage, salad and bread. She had eggplant meatballs, which I don’t eat
  4. crockpot chicken marsala , egg noodles, peas, broccoli . more sour cream coffee cake
  5. exactly. many benefits from mtb, just try to stay within the limits of your ability. the ski mountain environment made it easy to leave snowboarding. we have a bunch locally, one i can see from my job. they just get worse and worse. one just went private, 175k a person to be a member. going up to 200k and 10k a year. talking about enjoying the "rarified air" . that's what city folks must call non polluted air
  6. i gave up snowboarding to avoid getting fucked up. yeah the bike can hurt you but you can get hurt many other ways that are not nearly as fun. i ride with a guy in his 80s. rubbing your tire on the climbs and downhills. jumping, wheelies, he does it all. he is from a club to our south, and when the other guys come i ask "where's frenchie?" . we left him home so he doesn't show us up
  7. tonight i had potato chip crusted halibut with a white wine sauce, saffron rice, snap peas, red cabbage , carrots , a roll and butter. washed down with a brooklyn lager . couple girl scout tagalongs so far, but there is a sour cream coffee cake waiting.
  8. my sled buddy is a roadie. cool, respectful one. i tease him when i see dickheads in the road and acting entitled. that crowd brings it on themselves. we are in the woods on private lands that we maintain. 90% of the guys i ride with have sleds, dirt bikes, quads, etc. , and 100% are all for it even if they don't have anything. the guys in the video on snow with gravel bikes is just stupid. go run your skinny tires on someone's cross country ski trails and see how they react
  9. don't lump us in with those assholes. trying for a positive thread here
  10. oh yeah. went to the kingdom, stayed at a sweet air bnb. big group of us. we had a good weekend. the bad part is i crashed both days. unlike me to do that but it was raining and leafy, i hit a root to catch air, landed in a criss cross of roots and ate shit bad. next day coming down a huge hill , flying , rolled my pedals back and put my weight back. hooked a little stump with my pedal. threw me through the bike. 2 in a row, i was dinged up pretty good. went in to town and it had awesome mtb vibe. had a beer and app at the tiki bar , was a good time. i think they lost some trails after we were there, but i have friends that go every year. i brought a whole "shell" and cut a bunch of ny strips for the grille. awesome from the local meat market. i made ny strips with blue cheese butter. twas killer!
  11. joe dirt in the photo is actually from france. he is a fashion model as well as his wife. really cool down to earth people. i get ll bean catalog and there he is. not gonna leave her out
  12. and did nothing for the black community in the process
  13. preps you for sled season for sure
  14. i'm rockin' a santa cruz bronson. my old ass needs a big , cushy ride. but that bitch rips
  15. we had nearly 30 miles, and fucking people on foot during the pandemic got us kicked out of some of the best we had. the land owners told us not one mtb rider incident in 27 years . but the hikers were obnoxious. naked, shitting, garbage, telling land owners to go fuck themselves. in the one guys yard taking pictures with his lawn decor. then flip him off when he tells them to beat it. we lost some sweet shit. the one even tried the mtb only signs , and gave up. they were all sad to do it but we do not blame them. we still have killer riding
  16. a few more. some of these guys are childhood friends. been riding with these guys since 1976. bmx, road, and in 1987 mountain. the four of us in 1982. we still all live within a few miles of each other. i'm #4 our halloween race. my buddy joe dirt
  17. usually get out earlier than now but i'm about to start and i'll ride till Thanksgiving. even fat bike after that . we have our own trail system that we have built and maintained for 27 years. we have some good shit. https://www.facebook.com/571306546231350/videos/762044737873289 https://www.facebook.com/571306546231350/videos/2369004853403838 https://www.facebook.com/571306546231350/videos/127467312548787 https://www.facebook.com/571306546231350/videos/425424505204829 https://www.facebook.com/571306546231350/videos/664899328289278
  18. damn sure not gonna be general motors
  19. if someone is gonna do it it will be yota
  20. my buddy is a tsa agent at the local airport. my other buddy thought it would be funny to mess with him. so e walks up to him acts strange and asks "you guys aren't gonna strip search me are ya?" . tsa guy said "mike if you don't get away from me they are gonna tackle you and you are gonna miss your flight" . he backed off
  21. what kind of taxes in NH on these homes? upstate ny is getting fucked by taxes. depending where you live, average house can be 10k or more. nice house 15-20k a year. along with prices 3 times what they should be. nyc transplants bought everything we had.
  22. my mom had help from a local group called the greene county women's league. i had never heard of them. they paid 5k of my mom's ridiculous bills. they raise money through fundraisers, penny socials, dinners, etc. every penny goes to cancer patients. they got a big amount left to them, they put it in cds to increase it. they are helping 56 people right now. my girlfriend and i have been helping them. my girlfriend knits and is making sweet things to auction off. i do woodworking and will make various items for them as well. if you have a group like this maybe contact them. they were very good to my mom , didn't make her feel like she was mooching. they just want you to win the battle. they even do a car show in the summer. people show big time for them as they are doing a very good thing. not one penny goes to "administration"
  23. that shit took my bro and mom in the last 8 months. bullshit . hope she beats the shit out of it . start a gofundme or something and i will contribute as well as others i'm sure
  24. his day of reckoning is here...
