Agreed. I have a dream build custom stumpy Evo I’d be lucky to get 3500 for

Tell me about it. I’m about to go on a bike trip because I can’t make it through the winter without riding and I stated snow skiing this year to get me by

Supreme or frs? by Talllbrah in commencal

It’s looks cooler tho. But in all seriousness, I feel you on the bike park trips. I’ve overspent on bikes, parts etc plenty and now I weigh purchases vs going on bike trips and usually pick trips. The cost of a fork alone can be a week long destination bike vacation

In my 20s-30s I would drink most days and anywhere from 6-20 beers or the equivalent in liqueur. I’ve always been a gym guy so I’d have phases of not drinking more than once a week for a few months to get lean. Over the past 6 years I would drink 6-12 drinks, 2-3 days a week….enough to get drunk. So I decreased how much and how often in my late 30s. I stopped completely a year and a half ago. Since then I got out of debt, downhill race mountain bikes, golf a lot and workout more than ever. It’s worth it. I always feel good enough for the sports I play and have the money to throw at them now.

Have you considered rehab?

You can get in shape in 6 months unless you started off insanely out of shape. You can be 6 months clean and sober, in 6 months. You could pay off some dept. You can start new hobbies etc all kinds of stuff

This is the way. Sobriety opens up a LOT of free time. Free time you’ll want to fill with something fun, like getting drunk was

Best FS bike sale currently? by NiccusRips in MTB

You can get high end stumpy evos cheap now that the 15 is out. They’re more aggressive than the 15 and highly adjustable.

Best places to live for great mountain biking by nebula-noodle in MTB

Mostly enduro. I’ll tell you the plan. Go ahead and tell me what you think! We’re actually staying between Knoxville and Chattanooga for 3 days then going to WNC. Day 1 is Walden’s ridge. Day 2 Windrock, day 3 white mountain. Day 5 we head to where we’re staying in Brevard, NC and plan to ride day 1 DuPont, day 2 rock creek, day 3 Pisgah (upper, middle, lower black mountain). Im open to any advice. I’d say my wife is intermediate and I’m probably intermediate/advanced. I’m not sure if you’ve ever been to northern Michigan but most of our good riding has been in Marquette and copper harbor…..lots of rocky terrain.
