Make sure you stay on the bike path for safety.

Interesting front suspension.

I don't know whose was first Harley or Schwinn. I rode my Uncle's when I was in Texas when I was a kid. That Springer front end was smooth as silk.

Motorcycles all used a girder front end up until WW I, The springer, which is a first cousin to the girder, after WW II. The trouble with both is cornering, especially if it's bumpy. Slow it's OK, fast you're in a world of hurt. No idea when bicycles used them, except obviously in '52.

And now Rock Shock has 28 pages of specs across platforms.

Looks like an awful lot of science and man hours have gone into creating the perfect combinations for your needs. I would think that wouldn't happen unless there's a market to make it worthwhile. Or are they are making all the possibilities available for you to experiment with?

Winter is coming, be glad you have other transportation options.

Took the Mrs. to Jones Park yesterday. That was some technical riding. There were a lot of creek crossings and tight steep climbs. Pete is new to this so some frustration was noted. She'll be back.

She's a keeper. :thumb2:

Based on an initial glance at that photo, I thought you two had invented mountain unicycling.

xoxoxoBruce 10-14-2017 08:53 AM

That would not be an unreasonable thought, considering the accomplishments coming from Griftopia. :cool:
