Something you don't see every day. This guy did the whole Critical Mass ride with us, including some significant inclines/downhills

Check this bike out. I saw this puppy downtown. It has ammo cans for panniers.

I don't know about that. I've built a few wheels, didn't enjoy it and don't care to ever do it again. I do hope to be doing centuries for years to come.
That is a major step. As big or bigger than riding a first century.Last edited by big john; 12-03-13 at 08:00 AM.

The photo was taken along a MUP that runs thru Scottsdale. Most of the concrete structures along the major roadways have some sort of artwork component to them. The wall on the opposite side was a prickly pear cactus. It's amazing to see. Up where we live it's just the standard grey concrete.

If it makes you feel better, there was a 15MPH headwind.

That's a cool photos. I can't imagine riding it up a hill though.
I just noticed the Bar Mits. A friend emailed a photo of his bike with them on. I have never seen them before, and now twice in one day. I like the idea of Bar Mits - just hate the thought have riding in the cold.
