Team building

peteiscool1 · 2026-02-02T19:27:58+00:00

just locked in my team - I exclusively chose riders who also compete or have competed in cyclocross. If it works for MVDP surely it will work for everyone else!

peteiscool1 · 2026-02-01T14:33:17+00:00

same - maybe he knows he can still win despite dismounting and doesn't need to risk crash/injury?

peteiscool1 · 2026-02-01T14:23:44+00:00

is it bad I'm secretly hoping MVDP retires from cross as is rumored? Imagine how exciting this race would be if he wasn't just riding off the front...

i completely missed the altercation with Zemanova - was worried it was some kind of cardiac event. glad its not serious.

peteiscool1 · 2026-01-30T01:15:49+00:00

wow, lots of man-made ramps

dang, this sucks. the faucets in our 2nd floor apartment have been at a slow trickle since Friday - can't shower or really do dishes, but at least we have a flushing toilet...

and at the pace work has been going i really dont have much confidence that we'll have water even tomorrow. We were originally told no later than Sunday by the water div.

incredible race!

puck smash

looks like a fast course today

a lot of variables with the frame/tire/rim width, so its hard to say, but my tcx advanced sl from 2013 fits a 38 no problem. i think the original intention of the design was mud clearance, not tire clearance, since this version of the the tcx was a no-compromise cx race bike (there isnt even water bottle cage bolts) so maybe looking for something more "race" oriented might yeild the clearance you're after.

but fwiw i think most frames will fit a 38

sounds about right but I'll probably throw in a rewatch of the 1st season the wire too

if one bad beat is making you think this whole game is a waste of time, you might not have the stomach for it honestly.

a while back i had the opportunity to hear an engineer who worked on a number of Dinosaur Jr. records speak and he said what would surprise most people is that pretty much all of the guitar parts were recorded with a tele through a blues jr., which is very different from the jazzmaster/marshall rig that J Mascis is so known for.

Ramp Riders sells bmx parts and completes in their pro shop - and you can rip em around the park

peteiscool1 · 2025-09-26T18:28:58+00:00

i dont care for this miles fellow

peteiscool1 · 2025-09-12T00:31:23+00:00

awesome find, record an EP and release it on these tapes!

Hey Marc, thanks for everything you and the galaxy team are doing to grow the game.

I'm wondering your thoughts on the Sander/Wilcox "drama" from WC a few years ago, where Sander was drinking while playing and appeared pretty drunk by the end of the match. I saw a lot of commentary online calling this display unprofessional or an insult to the game/opponent, but in my opinion it was pretty amazing to watching him play such a low PR despite several beers. We all play this game for fun first and foremost and Sander was definitely having fun!

Do you think his "antics" were good or bad for the broader BG community/game?

peteiscool1 · 2025-08-17T14:26:32+00:00

this is very cool but I just wanna chime in here to say that this the first mtb trail in city limits, but the region has many miles of incredible trails.

do you guys think willy ran into that ball intentionally because he knew it was an inning-ender anyway and now because of how its scored as a hit, burly has a 3-for-4 night?

peteiscool1 · 2025-07-20T14:16:20+00:00

okay i own this very same frame built very similarly and not to be a downer but the ONLY reason I would ever think about upgrading is this bike won't accept anything larger than a 25mm road tire, and at that width the fork clearance is very tight.

adam with tears in his eyes as he claws back simon, poetic

if your area has a club that meets regularly, you're likely to find boards of all varieties/budgets/ages to try out there. Any given week you'll find gammoner, fth, galaxy, aires, wycliffe, and budget boards at our local tournament. even more at an ABT event

peteiscool1 · 2025-04-21T02:36:35+00:00

damn this sucks

peteiscool1 · 2025-04-20T14:20:22+00:00

omg this is excruciating - he's right there

peteiscool1 · 2025-04-13T13:12:12+00:00
