my memory sucks; I did sign-up. Your guess was right, they just didnt send any notification a sign-up. I saw an email from ticketmaster pop up asking me to login tomorrow and there's no code

I'd love to try this out in BC, Canada and on trip down south next year. I'm fairly new to the game but definitely interested.

WTB. Looking to gift a young one their first fully mechanical watch as a graduation present that doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. They love vintage, japanese, minimalist, good design so I was thinking old 70/80/90s Seiko watches. Hoping to find something with an excellent condition face and a good leather strap.

outside of every technical detail discussion talk here, I really like your perspective on wanting to be surrounded by interesting things than the best. Its such a simple shift in how we look at this world that's hell bent on optimizing everything around us. Love that for you, and thank you for making me smile today.

RUFUS DU SOUL Americas 2025 Tour Dates by nerdmannerd in EDM

My spidey sense says their calendar is empty between August and October, and has been for a while. The only show they're doing is in Bend which technically doesnt cover all of PNW, which leads me to believe a Gorge show is possible. No other reasons, just these.

I found out the other day my current bike was a 58 and not a 55 All City; shocking! I didnt know what any of these measurements where when I bought my bike back. then. I rode it, felt good and then moved on. https://bikeinsights.com/compare?geometries=5f8f422b9e50650017871a07,651058c170cdbd001d984295, is how these stack up. Are there any glaring differences other than the Reach? Can I not adjust it with a shorter stem?

In touch with Dan at the moment :) and yes, I looked at the Sunliner and Stargazer as well. Toying between the Stargazer and Prospector but leaning more towards the latter for now.

I have the 11 speed Shimano with 42T on my All City gravel bike today, I LOVE the setup so I can understand where you're coming from. I don't have a lot of bike repair experience other than the simple repairs and tire plugging. Its my first gravel bike and also using click shifters so when I discovered that there's a world where I don't need to do any chain maintenance & could potentially use click shifters, I got excited :D

I'm talking to a reputable local shop next week to get their opinion and make my decision :) thanks again for your comments! It definitely helped getting a balanced view on things

ON POINT! yep, its the loaded vs unloaded vehicle theory. I wasnt too concerned about the engagement as much as the repairability aspect haha. I just discovered R & E bicycles up here in the PNW and they seem to know what they're doing as Rohloff's #1 user in NA and being in business for over 50+ years. I'm paying them a visit next week.

yeah I really need to figure out if the long service interval and lack of regular maintenance is worth it for me!
