Did the Okanagan rail trail today along Kal lake. Its a very nice trail and well maintained.

 

[Lem Lamb]

Yes I can

I used those words 45 years ago and what an adventure...

I found a new add-on that goes with the sport...

Who would of ever thought that this is todays biker bar...

We're just a pack of Woke @zz'ez... lol

Back on the T-6 of pure fast analog...

Its the cheapest bike in the rack and no lock required,,, no ones coming too steal the $10 dollar beater...

We've coverd alot of ground over the years and I'm stroked too get it back on-line...

- Nicks and Scratches welcome
- $38 crank set
- $5 brake pad sets
- $3 cables
- its cheaper too replace the complete wheels then rebuild
- $28 Rear railer
- Same for the front
- Tires and Tubs are dirt cheap
- The 700c x 38's with low pressure rock the cross country stuff...
I like them more then the 42's and 45's
- Fast rolling with low pressure

A person will know when they find that magic bike,,, i got lucky is all...

Great long weekend gang,,, thanks for sharing and feel free too throw up a post...

T-6 and I are gunn'en for the usa this winter,,, more training if team Canada needs me as a unofficial mascot...

A evening project,,, took him no time at all
The low pressure front boots float right over crap,,, there almost too good...

The weak link is the rear...

The wizer trick is a low pressure ( thick wall ) fat tire in 27.5 x 5.8...

Just in-case the back wheel slips out on the high-speed turns,,, body mass and helmit too Negotiate the course... ha...

My older go too mtb is off too a new home...

It was definitely a smasher bike,,, lots of Ab and bc over the years...

1 chapter completed as the next awaits...

2 more bike too punt then I'll be down too my 3 mains...

I'm bringing my xtc back on line...

Its not as fast as my 700c on the smoother rollys but it makes up for time in the ruff...

Its impossible giving up on pure analog when its in your blood from years gone by...

There's something too be said about a plain old school pedal bike...

So quiet and lite...

Great weekend gang...

Anyone in the vernon area interested in riding some trails?

Matt, a little trip to Kelowna and the Myra Canyon KVR trail would be great for the kids. 24 km of very scenic canyons and old tressels.
