Staff Ride: Dario's Downieville Santa Cruz Tallboy
@nickfranko: but isn't that how it is in racing sequential gear boxes (rally, drag, etc.)? This always made more sense to me and in most cars with a sequential option it's reversed and I hate it. In motorcycles you push your foot forward/down to up-shift, and up/back to down-shift. I think that's been burned into me and I expect the same from my cars.

my bike would be that quiet... sitting in a pile a mangled bits with me making lots of noise off to the side.

I think they've missed the point on the Rapha stuff. Not that I'm saying I love it and it's the coolest, but it's not fashion dipping into cycling, it's Rapha wandering into fashion. I don't think those pants are intended for use on a bike, but rather, that Rapha is trying to reach out into other markets for brand recognition.

at least these inflated bike prices are helping to fund something that is so definitively art and culture representing something we love.

Tech Week 2023: 3 New Half Shell Helmets from Abus, Lem, & Sweet Protection
a friendly reminder that Abus doesn't allow women to hold high positions in their company as a rule. Do with that info what you will, but I think it's worth knowing.

I'm here to be notified if this is a thing. Neurosis is one of my fav bands (seen them probably 15-20 times). While I wouldn't consider them "brutal" really (maybe the early stuff when they were still basically a punk band), I would love to see if somebody put that shit to some riding.

What is the relationship to the native land 7mesh and the clothing company? I'd never seen that before.

this whole thing is awesome, but "the trees step back and let the earth speak" is a truely beautiful line that describes the desert in such a simple and effective way.
