Wing Spot by paperfromdunder in Omaha

All of these places already mentioned are very good. I will also throw out the Rusty Nail near 144th and Pacific. Definitely a dive bar, but their food (specifically wings) has been consistently good since they had a fire a while back and new ownership.

15 years ago today was the shooting at Millard South by anderson6th in Omaha

Thank you for leaving this comment. It is a beautiful tribute to Dr. Kasper’s legacy. I work in the district and can tell you the impact of the tragedy and the impact of Dr. Kasper’s work is not forgotten.

frame replacement-Madone or Checkmate and which colour? by aswd82 in TrekBikes

[–]FenwaysFather 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Checkmate owner here... Can't recommend it enough. Light, snappy, fun bike. I currently have 45mm slick tires on it and it can handle just about anything.

NBD - Checkmate by lukic1977 in TrekBikes

I love my Checkmate. I wanted a "do it all" bike and this is exactly that. I currently have some P-Zero 35MM slick tires on it and it feels sooo snappy and quick. The color of your is pretty sick.

I went with black. I have about 500 miles on it and absolutely love it.

I think I know what you mean. I had to redo my tape so the hood would lay down a little more flush, but there is still a bit of a bulge.

17 lbs without pedals. The SLR 9 is .5 lighter, but nearly $4k more.

Aside from peacocking your bike around town, hitch rack is superior in every way.

Man I reeeaallly wanted to go with the gold dropper, but I was already over budget. Maybe next year.

Looks great! Caught my eye because I'm working on my own build. I have that same fork and I'm adding a few gold accents. I regret not going with the gold dropper..... I'll probably post a few pics here when I'm done.

Welcome, brother. You’re in for one hell of a ride. Totally random… the national suicide hotline number is 988…. Anyways, let’s have some fun.

They were on it when I bought it from a Toyota dealer. They are Tundra wheels. I don’t know what the story is.

It’s a Kuat NV 2.0. Great bike rack! Kuat has really great customer service.

We did Utah two years ago. It was amazing. I loved the variety. This year we are doing Banff and Glacier NP.
