Toshi's ride pics thread

Rather than take up space on DH/DS, I'm going to set up camp here. Now that I have a digital camera, the pics will be flowing in constantly, and I'll post links to their index pages on my website.

edit/update: as part of my website revamp (dec 2, 2003) the path to the biking pics has changed. now everything is under

http://tjclark.ath.cx/images/biking/

sorry for the change, but the structure was getting too messy

hehe...yeah, so about that spill. Looks good, eh?

I would say that I meant to do that, but the scrapes on my leg tell me otherwise.

Oh well, live and learn. Hopefully next time i'll make it, and perhaps won't knock Toshi's bike out of alignment either.

And now you're at three, thanks to the carbon cranks thread. Wow. What say we get Keith and Keirse onto ridemonkey? We could use this thread as our own little space, without annoying the many non-riding members of humba with our banter.

Muahahahah....

We're taking over ridemonkey. me and my, now 4, posts.

Actually that would be kind of fun. On the other hand, if we use the HUMBA list then we might intise all those non-riders to come join us. Or we might just annoy them.

Wazzap?

Well toshi, I succumbed to the peer pressure and joined. Those pics (and videos) fromn the ride are cool. I'm jealous. Anyway, I'm getting most of the Superlight tomorrow I'm pretty psyched.

peace

Ah, xc goodness. I don't think you ever saw my Cannondale, as I had the Stinky by sophomore year. Here's my old ride:

Today was a busy day... lots of building and assembling. I thought you guys might like the summary:

The negatives
flat tire on arrival
Packing tape used as rimtape
no seat or seatpost till wednesday
crank isn't splined
SRAM Derailleurs and shifters Who makes derailleurs and brake levers out of plastic?? (sorry: "Composite")
no pedals

The positives (neg,ecting the obvious fact that the bike is pretty sweet)
Light ass wheelset
Race face bars&stem
Four inches of buttery smooth rear travel (now I know what I was missing)

Not Sure yet:
cable disc brakes
175mm cranks
Manitou fork

The kicker:

All this in sasquatch size (that's my size) for a mere 27lb (1.5lbs less than the old ride, and yes, I weighed them both)

Anyway, here's the before pictures. (after pictures when i rip all that sram crap off the bike and maybe put on the discs will follow):

Sweet! I take it you bought the used one since you have all these parts I haven't seen before, no? It's no fair that you're making your bike lighter when you're already too fast on the climbs. Punk.
