On a 10 deg. ride in winter or a 90 deg. ride in summer and all conditions in between, you’ll be happy to have the right gear.

Now the latest bike tech, component groups and all that are mostly vanity at this point. Even mid-level stuff is good enough for us weekend warriors. But if we can afford the newer stuff why not have it? It makes for good trailhead chatter too if nothing else talking up our latest upgrades.

This is true on both bicycles and motorcycles. (I love both.)

Sounds like TalkBass!

Which means we need to know the best bike (gear too) for metal now... :cool:
 
Headed out for a bike ride. Been neglecting exercise for a couple months now. Got all suited up to meet my buddy. All my cycling clothes feel too tight. The girl must’ve shrunk em in the dryer. That’s the only logical explanation, right?
Don’t tell me there’s a MAMIL in our midst?! It’s not good. What’s wrong with riding a bike in jeans or cargo shorts like I used to do before I needed specialised reinforced bike frames?
 
Finally got some pics of the 4x12s, that roadcase is a real SOB loading out of the car by yourself. Even getting the lid off is nearly impossible with just one person. Also hooked up the Marshall, ran the Precision and 'Bird through it, sounded damn good at low volume, very full, articulate, and solid. Haven't had the chance to really open up the volume yet.
