grafton

on the 4th ride we ditched the chickas for a spin down grafton....and too much fun to take any additional photos. A chunky, technical wonderful trail which was kind of like blodgett canyon but at a 35% gradient (maybe steeper in spots) and nasty exposure thrown in the mix. Made it down safe and sound.....hit a few of the drops and jumps at the bottom just to push the luck. Good stuff and was feeling pretty good about myself until i heard from the fella at the local bike shop that he made it down on a fixed gear mtb !

cruiser bike sale

here's a couple of bikes that we'd like to sell before the snow flies.

the first one here is a ladies step thru JC Higgins and in super condition

the second one is from a similiar era. Probably early 60's. A mens Sears bicycle also in excellent condition. 

your choice for either one...$300 each.

Antique

Interesting trueing stand just arrived courtesy of mantis mike, we certainly appreciate the addition to the barn here and i'd highly recommend seeing it in person. Cast iron construction made by Caywood Brothers out of Chicago.

Bike the Bowl

From good buddy Andy A.


This Sunday is the MMA fundraiser Bike the Bowl. The ride is from Snowbowl parking lot to Point 6. We have a small turnout so we are looking for some more riders just to pump up the event. There will be no fundraising obligations or entry fees, you just need to show up bike and drink some beer. The ride starts at 9:30 (soft start). The band and pizza starts at Noon. Come up to ride or just enjoy the band and pretty ladies. The Althausers, Skinners, and Radlowski's will be up there all day. Come and bring the family.
Their will be a time trial from from the parking lot to point 6. The fastest recorded time is 59:56seconds. What's your time?

Built using a spare frame and fork that was hanging around the shop, we decided to spec it out with shimano alfine internal geared hubs and a bitchin' supernova led light powered by a generator front hub (also notice the fancy internal cable routing on the light). We also had some spare parts laying around to dress it out, cork grips, charger perf leather saddle, shimano saint cranks with protective ring plate, some fancy chain and cork grips. Own this one of a kind creation........$1600
