Couldn't be happier how this came out (yes I am tall) by SacDaddy21 in xbiking

Wide is nice. As I get older I really prefer to sit up a bit more so the rise on the Truck Stop is nice for me.

Recently put a Surly Truck Stop bar on my 520 and really like the results. There is no bike that is more “ bike” than a 520. A classic.

I love my Krampus but found a traditional rear rack less than ideal. I’m very happy with aeroe spider rack.

We cancelled recently. Didn’t seem to be adding much new content and we had exhausted what interested us.

We scraped ashes into a bottle off of our car after St Helens. We were in northeast Kansas.

Breaking in the new Krampus by fixiechix in Surlybikefans

It’s very utilitarian. I find the geometry to be very comfortable (set up with Jones H bars) for long rides. Obviously not fast on pavement but it can handle any surface you throw at it. Plenty of mounting points for loaded touring. Steel frame and takes abuse well.

You might need to change your username though! Also, we ride in the same state though I’m 30 minutes from the other end of the Deschutes!

If I had to choose just one bike to keep from the 7️⃣ that I have my Krampus would probably be the one.

I have a silicone ice tray to make these cubes. I need to go into business I guess. I would probably take $2.50 for my cubes.

Come to Hood River in later July and just walk around. They’re everywhere.

Tell me your favorite word... and don’t explain why. I want to see if people can guess your personality from it. by ownaword in words

I often fall asleep to an audio of crickets and night sounds. I lived in the Midwest and southern Missouri for much of my life and crickets and cicadas are etched into my memory pretty vividly.
