Is this Ebay bike a piece of crap?
A friend just asked me that question about this ADULT MEN 26″BEACH CRUISER BIKE BICYCLE SHIMANO 7-SPEED he found on Ebay. The brand appears to be TOBAK ERU. I’ve never heard of that. I really dig the reverse fork design. With negative trail it is sure to have snappy ass handling. This would be... »
The Next Adventure
I’ve just started on a new adventure. I’m hoping to provide more updates on this as they happen, but for now I’m going to let you know what’s up. Back up a bit… back in February, Chris Carmichael put up a call for people to join a team going to La Ruta. That’s short... »

Police caution bicyclists and motorists

Washoe Roadie Route
Smella Forwarded this to me. Perhapse we should take a lesson from RedBeard on this and come up with a uinified message and plan of attack. As I see it Interstates and bikes are not compatible and Eastlake and the road on the west side are FAR preferable for bike travel, but could use... »
North American Handmade Bike Show (byznatches)
