It's black, purple, red, gold, orange....
Kid outgrew his race bike. He's growing like a weed now, so this may be short lived and I pinched pennies here because of that. Ebay frame, moved parts over. Just didn't make sense to spend a ton on something new if it's used for 1-2 years.
Took the opportunity to rebuild the Sid XX fork and extend it from 100mm to 120mm of travel. Frame has 100mm.
Paint is Custom Paints, Inc. Chromacoat Fireball. Best rattle can paint ever. Amazing stuff.
Came in at 25# ready to race. Not bad. #MTB #BikeTooter #cycling
Good morning. Back in the real world after a week of camping up north (WI) and the kiddo's state trap shooting championship. Here's a loon :)
Trek 100 (charity ride for the MACC Fund) MTB route today....at Trek's private trails. Rained on the first lap, so it got a little messy, but wasn't too bad. Held speed back a bit. Goal was to ride as many laps as we wanted. I got in four. Recorded two and three.
Kid knocked out nearly five laps at a pace way higher than mine.
Great day on the bike.
Did a N-1 last night and it's tough, but makes me happy. The woman who bought this Trek District looked so incredibly joyful testing it out. I'm donating all the proceeds to our NICA MTB team, so that makes it even better.
Sadly, it was a bit redundant in our fleet and a bit too small for me, but has to be one of the nicest bikes I've ever had the pleasure of riding.
Goodbye friend; make someone else happy.
Making some mods to our Aliner Classic camper before our several short summer trips. Putting the queen bed platform on lift cylinders to make it easier to get to storage underneath that is hard to utilize in stock config. Using as much scrap as I can, and some old steel brackets from a long gone swingset make for great lift braces with an extra hole drilled. Don't throw anything away!
Still need to go get 76" of piano hinge and some screws for that.
Late #caturday post. Violet soaking up the morning sun. Snapped it then had to run to a wilderness medicine class for the day.
Switched my old Trek Stache to SS mode since it's no longer the primary MTB. It's even more fun setup like this; despite the heavy stock wheels and 3" tires. Just flies through the singletrack. #MTB #BikeTooter #cycling
My 14yo son is having a heck of a weekend up at our farm. His first totally solo turkey hunt was a great success and he's doing even more to enjoy the outdoors and feed himself. We all got to enjoy the aurora from dark skies as well. Proud of this kid. I also got a turkey, so lots of great eating ahead.
Cell camera sucks, but it's all I had while up at the farm in west central WI. Heck of a show. #aurora
Going through some online training modules for MTB coaching and this top shelf in the background is really distracting me.
I figured out how to get a woody in my mid 40s without pills. Just need a pair like these! #woodducks #birds #waterfowl
Adopted another bike in need of a good home. Rescued from Trek's Red Barn Refresh.
2022 Fuel EX 8. Swapped in my Line Pro 40s with XR4 up front, XR2 out back, carbon bars, and not pictured, four-pot XT brakes.
Hey, nice ash!
Chainsaw milling another log today. Big one too. The wood is gorgeous.
