I will most certainly be there. In fact, I’m not sure how I will sleep tonight. 🙂 ---

Could this be the reason for the orange spray paint that recently showed up in Fight? ---

@a.mart Is there a rain date for this or does this happen anyway despite tonight’s weather? ---

It was great to ride something different Andrew. I rode a Trance Advanced and noticed how different the suspension set up feels compared to my bike. The Trance is more plush where my Trek is more stiff. I prefer a plushier ride so I experimented a bit with pressures on my bike, I dropped both my fork and shock by 10lbs and I must say it feels a little better to me. Maybe a placebo though. I run my rear shock at 185 and my front at 100. I just dropped to 175 and 90. We’ll see how that feels again tonight My buddy took out an e-bike. Holy shit! Those things can fly ---

Good stuff! I’m going to keep my thoughts on e-bikes to myself to avoid a thread liek the line 24 thread haha. ---

Free placebos are the best kind. As bicycle consumers we usually pay for placebos. ---
