From this weekend's exploration. Was eyeing up this log as a spot to cross this gully. Then I noticed a ton of flies swarming at the bottom. After a couple seconds staring down I noticed legs...

Mikkeller San Diego Windy Hill

New England style IPA 7%, cascade, amarillo, mosaic, dry hopped with citra and eldorado

Good stuff

I have nothing useful to suggest. But I hate those things. Constantly finding them on MTB rides hung up in bushes off trail. I always wade out and get them.



For my parents I wrote down...

I thought the point of the thread was to call out people who never take the shovel, traction boards, rotopax etc off the vehicle. Fine with me if they want to strap all sorts of shit on while...

Badass!

I saw a YT vid the other day where a webcam camera was taken down by lava. Found it.... Not as dramatic but still kinda cool

...

Around here, people leave those things at trailheads, campsites, and random dirt roads. I don't get it either.

I've been thinking about how crowded a lot of wilderness hikes are. I bet it would be easier to get a Mt Whitney permit if the road up to Whitney portal didn't exist and you had to hike in from Lone...

Found some youtube vids. I guess its no surprise people are poaching it early. Looks fun! I know its going to be multi-use, but horses - really? I'm sure that will work well with narrow exposed...

Yeah I'd bet most people would get more use out of a shovel than traction boards or hi-lift jack. I've had to shovel out both sand and snow to get unstuck.

And more importantly, you can dig a...

Doesn't that describe pretty much every chihuahua? I stayed with a friend in Portland once whose wife had one. I couldn't move without getting snapped and snarled at.

The spokes on every wheel on my bikes are scratched and gouged from rock strikes. I don't blame wheel builders for not wanting to re-use them.

I heard Canada was scheduling 3 months or so between doses.


LOL. If only....

Walking into the other bedroom I did notice this one had a bright little light that flashed along with the chirp, so it was easy to identify which one was the offender.

What boggles my mind is...

The main point I take from that is that it doesn't matter what you consume as long as you're taking in sufficient calories and fluids. A lot of people probably have issues with this. I know I do. ...

I'd heard June opening.

Guesses on how much of a shit show this will be? I can't imagine there is much shuttle infrastructure (# of vans) in the area compared to likely hype/demand.

Good...

Last big trip I got a stick up into my derailler, which got pushed and hooked onto a spoke. Miraculously no broken spokes as there was so much litter on the trail the wheel just slid along as I...

Had to get up early today. Alarm was set for 5. Smoke detector started chirping at 4.

LOL. Tons of them in Socal.

There needs to be an extra point if their hi-lift jack has clearly never been used. And another point if they carry a hi-lift jack but don't actually have a jacking...

Mini-TR:

I got the 1st Pfizer shot first thing this morning, wooooo! Arm muscle is a bit sore but otherwise still feeling good. As others have experienced it was very well organized. My appt...

We already have campfire bans in Socal.

I'd heard BLM was going to "clean up" the dispersed camping near JEM and on Gooseberry so that you can only camp in designated dispersed camping sites. Did they finally do that? Haven't been out...

Mag7 and Porc are probably the best two bang-for-buck rides in Moab. The other must do if you have an extra day is Ahab and then another climb up Hymasa to Rockstacker and Jacksons.

Lots of...

My spur and some other bikes like Revel apparently aren't able to handle a bash guard due to insufficient ISCG tabs. You would think I could use a BB mount guard though? There are some trails I...

Canucks now have 16 players under covid protocol. Wow.

I still haven't seen a hummingbird at my place in months. I've put the feeder out again the last couple weeks and the level hasn't dropped at all. Strange. I still see them when out on the trail...

So, I went through a DUI checkpoint tonight. Haven't been through one in 15 yrs, somehow. The officer asks when I'd last had a drink. I said yesterday. He said ok, follow my finger without moving...

Keep checking different times a day. I guess I lucked out and they must have just added a block of appts. I think both times I saw appts available was at night.

Well that is interesting. All these websites are such a mess, I ended up getting linked back on the State of CA site myturn.ca.gov. Clicked through to see if there is any appt availability there,...

Did you just call me a fat fuck? Lol. BMI calculator says 26.6, which qualifies as overweight per SD county criteria. I knew the 4 beers a day would pay off!

I only see 1 location on the...

I could never run an inverted fork without serious stanchion guards, judging by the scars on pretty much every fork I've ever owned.

Web based systems that don't work at night? Fucking briliant!

Actually, previous time I looked was also at night. Just checked again, same result as I got last night.

Ah, that makes sense. I probably knew that but was thrown off by the actual company name listed. They used to have a restaurant/brewpub in SD but it closed a couple years ago. Never went in there....

I actually didn't mind Slack. It was useful having something where you could see someone's status - on a call, away from desk, etc. But it was a distraction because like a text message most people...

Same experience here. CA is opening to everyone over 16 on April 15. I went on to see if I could schedule an appt for after that date. No dice, "It's not your turn yet". Um, yeah I know that, but...

Well we can't all be dentists.

Gave this a try. $20 for a flat of 12oz. Not bad at all. Brewed by Hopfen Und Malz Brewing Co, San Jose CA. Never heard of it.

Citra hops obviously plus...

Costco tonight.... I don't know what this is, but it must be good lol.

After changing the hidden optimization setting on my phone TF seems to be tracking properly again. Well, when I open the screen during it ride it asks me if I want to stop recording, instead of...

I use Zoic liners. Their cheap ones (rated 2 hrs) are actually pretty good, I used to use them for full day rides. I have the green and grey ones now, whichever they are rated for. They have...

Meet Matt Gaetz, POS.

OK, we already knew he was a...

^^^ This. Take your anger out on some poison oak, you'll feel much better....til you realize you missed some of it that got on your clothing and is now on your wrist/arm/neck/ankle etc. lol

I see that a lot too. It was happening before Covid, and now much worse with all the newer riders. I usually pull over to let people pass and save them the trouble of riding off trail around me,...

My boss up in Vancouver at my last company wanted me to car shop for him in San Diego and have the vehicle shipped up to him. He figured even with exchange rate, shipping and import costs it would...

Yup. We've had plenty of changes to this trail and I'm good with quite a few of them. But not that one above.

This trail is used heavily by neighborhood kids and every so often a few will...

Yeah, but this trail has been here for 20+ years with no braids. This one and another just popped up. Its annoying that one set of tracks across the grass draws other bikers like stink on shit. ...

No digging today. With recent rains and now warm temps the PO is exploding. Today was step 1, nuke from orbit.

Shit heads who keep braiding the trails. Line on the right was not here a few months ago. Started as a strava line and now it seems every rider is getting gnar and taking the line. I've tried...

Cool, thanks! I had battery saver turned off under main settings, but TF was listed as optimized when I went in as described above. I'll try it out next ride.

Haha, and now for the last week I have been playing freezer Jenga. Try to pull item A out without everything around it crashing down to the floor. Making good progress though...

I was going to ask what small breweries they've gone after as I'd only heard about Key STONE light lol, but google search showed a small brewery in Kentucky, and then this USPTO office link. Holy...

Hmm. I've been having issues with Trailforks, but don't see webview in my list of apps. I tried deleting and reinstalling TF on my last trip. It fixed the issue for a few weeks, but seems to be...
