NICE, has the same feel of the flat single track areas to ride here, it would seem like home to me minus the old limestone quarries.

All right MIX, throwing some video our way. Was that part of the new trail you have been working on or stuff close to home?

That was outside the Sunset Valley Greenbelt down the street from my home in Austin. Still lots of work left on the East Texas trail.

I rode the XX Team on Thursday in the Sunset Valley Greenbelt. I love how that bike handles and especially how it shifts. I do need to put a longer stem on it. I rode the A2R on Friday and tore the chain off of it. Crazy..

The answer once again is yes...... 19 miles of urban assault to and from work each way each day...... You guys know I ride a New Zealand built Avanti Ridge Rider (supposed to be my commuter) but my knobbie A2MS is my choice. As a matter of fact - The Avanti has sat in the trunk of my '74 Lincoln for the last 3 weeks.

Mine is the red one.

I wasn't able to ride a Barracuda last week, being out of town and all, but I was able to ride the Ice Age Trail at Potawatomi State Park in Wisconsin on a rental. At 79 degrees, it was a lot cooler than triple digit temperatures of Austin, TX.
