@fatduke: that is... oddly specific

at 2:27, that's just showing off

in Romanian, the name Dorel, represents that blue collar worker (usually a construction guy) that is a bit lazy, also not very bright. You know, the guy that cuts the power to a neighborhood while digging a ditch, or the one that sleeps around the jobsite with every opportunity.

not that easy to do. See my answer above to @blacktea

PinkBike work with Indiegogo on Share The Ride and they do not have any power on the payment systems available Indiegogo has decided to stop using PayPal sometime ago. They have a press release on their site, but it does not really say why. I think this happened because PayPal have implemented a new algorithm that locks accounts that have received large amounts of money too fast. Sometimes they block the user access only to the money received in a certain period of time (or to the money you have in your account and have not used for a certain period of time). Paypal has said that the reason for this is to avoid illegal transactions. The biggest issue is that Paypal cannot be bothered and really take their time to investigate if the lock is on a real illegal transaction, or a false positive (up to a month). One way to avoid having this issue is for the seller/GrouBuyRunner/campaigner to issue invoices for each amount (also pay a tax to paypal for each invoice issued). But, donations based campaigns, like Share the Ride, are based on donations and do not use invoices. I hope you have a better idea now why paypal suck. source: I was part of 2 group buys organized through paypal and the money were locked for a month.

that video represents all I love about mountain riding: go on paths hardly suitable for bicycles, or no paths at all, climb and push and carry the bike up those mountaintops until the very top, take a break, calm my heart, take in the scenery, smell a flower and then ride the bike down... sleep in a tent hugging the bike and do it again the next day. I hardly have a few days like this a year, but when I have them... I feel more alive than the rest of the year

I also have a Durolux and I am more than happy with it.

that Santa Cruz nomad is the manliest bike ever. I want one!

the beggining of that track looks so sad with all those three stumps. What a beautifull forest must have been there.
