Ask your local bike shop. Guys at Walmart tell me that anything Chinese made works great.

There was plenty of fat chick's at whole foods today.

Keystone is icy. My secret pass let's me park up front.

My fat bike is in the shop.

I guess it just depends on how bad ass your dog is

I heard Heritage Square can be awesome.

Pretty much this. Maybe try something outside of Idaho Springs, St. Mary’s Glacier, something up around Echo, Jenny Lind is a little more of a drive but a great spot for a solo dog walk.

^It doesn't look fun. Skiing is supposed to be fun.

Thanks for the advice to whoever helped, I guess I should've specified I wasn't just talking about for right now but looking for the whole season. Anyways my pup is out of commission for awhile because she tore up some ankle ligaments playing with my roommates dog yesterday.

Also, if I remember correctly he was roped up the entire time. Does that count as skiing? Or rappelling with skis on?

I think it counts as scooting down on his hip while rappelling.

Also, that was like the most Boulder thing ever.

**cravenmorhead** · 11-14-2018, 04:20 PM

It's up there, but I think there's a lot of competition for "most Boulder thing ever."

That seems like it could make a great thread

**homebrewd** · 11-14-2018, 04:50 PM

My buddy is an arborist and was working on the Google campus by 28th and Pearl... was hoisted up by a crane to do some regular maintenance to prolong the trees health. Some 60 year old turd walked up to the crane operator and said what they were doing was illegal (even though they had city permits to handle it). Fucker called the cops and made my buddy dangle from his harness for like 25 minutes. Cops came and told the dude to move along so they could proceed. Boulder is full of em.

The weather though, sunny and meh. Needs more snow.

Fucking "get off my lawn" when it wasn't even his lawn? Definitely a Boulder thing to do.

I would definitely enjoy a "Boulder shit" thread.

**SKIP IN7RO** · 11-14-2018, 08:09 PM

Boulder would be great if it was like SK's The Stand.

**The SnowShow** · 11-14-2018, 09:30 PM

Nothing better than a hike in Chautauqua on a warm day with all the hot Boulder girls jogging by.

I was volunteering earlier this fall at growing gardens in north boulder. We were planting trees along the north border of their dirt parking lot. Some epic boulder asshole that lived across the street (in his 70’s) came thru and picked up our shovels and pick axes and started throwing them into the street...telling us we couldn’t plant trees there because they would ruin his view of the flatirons.

My buddy responded telling him he’d be dead before they grew tall enough to have an impact.

The dude freaked out and called the cops. The sense of entitlement boulder is disgusting.

This was basically the view

That was the most Boulder thing ever, can't be topped.

Not to one-up Boulder, but Breckenridge has a pretty epic controversy going on about a troll sculpture. Google Isak Heartstone.

**Danno** · 11-15-2018, 09:04 AM

It's a cool piece of art, they are fools to just take it down

**ColMan** · 11-15-2018, 09:06 AM

Since there isn't anything weather-wise to discuss right now, may as well rip on Boulder. Problem is it's too easy to do. Anyone who's lived there could go on for days.
