NEW BIKE DAY (didn't go as planned)

Our passion is for techy trails and big days on the bike - but lately we have been doing a LOT of our training on the road or indoors, as we navigate New Mexico’s legendarily fickle spring weather. We know this will prepare us well for a big season ahead, but today, we really just want to ride our new cross country race bikes. So, we’re loading up, and meeting some friends in Glorieta, and crossing our fingers that the weather decides to play nice.

I'm glad you two are happy with your new bikes. They seem to be good climbers and pretty sure footed as well. Can't wait to see next week's edition of Friday Night Mountain Biking. 😂 Hopefully on some drier terrain and warmer weather. Keep rollin. 👊👍✌️

Always such a good time riding with a trail builder! Especially when you get to ride some secret stuff.

one of my memorable MTB moments on a ride above Breck in the summer.....a summer thunderstorm passed just in front of us on a trail high above Breck. We were in the sun...with the black thundercloud and lightning still close, but moving away....and suddenly the air was filled with snow

Condescending Turns is the meme in our riding group. Basically the Decreasing Radius turn is just making fun of you as you grab a handful of brake going around it.

I grew up going to Glorietta as a student and then as a youth pastor. I rode there, but didn't know of any single track, just went to ghost town a lot (saw a bear once). Rode my road bike up the Pecos River once on a barely there road. I haven't been in a decade or more, now I want to go! We have the mud and had the thundersnow in NE AZ.

The real trail development started around 2015, I believe. You should definitely try to make it back. It's a great place to ride! We host our annual patron camp there in September ;)

Glad to hear you you like the the Signal peak. Still loving my 2021 Delano Peak. only complain is clearance for mud or rocks picked up by the tires. I too have had the mud push my chain off the front chain ring. Signal Peak is still a possible N+1 but it's tough to decide between it or a gravel bike. Need two dirt bike to pare with my 2 road bikes.

That reminded me of when I was in Bend, OR. Headed out in sunny hot desert weather. Sandy and slippery. Then it turned into loam. An hour later, it was 4 feet deep snow

Are you using a new camera or audio filter? The sound is much better than normal. There’s not a lot of road or vibration noises. The video looks a bit sharper and stable too. Whatever you’re using; it’s working. I like it alottt!!!!

@sydandmacky 4 ай бұрын

We could make them lighter but it would involve sacrifices we don't want to make (less dropper, 32 instead of 34mm fork, no tire inserts, narrower rims). As is, they are about a quarter pound lighter than our previous builds, and pretty light for what is definitely a "downcountry" bike
