I used double sided tape a few years ago and it's worked fine ever since. If you do it right you can't even notice it.

Lagunitas Lucky 13!!!

Pretty sure this guy has a buddy with a matching White 675R who wiped out last weekend too (8 days ago) . Probably from doing something stupid like this.

I ended up denting my rim in my crash and now I need a new one.

Thanks for the tip Jon! I noticed that as well but wasn't sure if it was due to the "Standard" geometry of the bike or not. Definitely something to work on in the future. I purchased Pilot Road 2's late last year because I was commuting up to Anaheim every so often and mostly cruising...

Palomar Mountain Fun Took the bike up to Palomar Moutain for the 3rd weekend in a row on Sunday. 3 weekends ago I was one of those idiots in jeans pushing way to hard, but then I wised up a bit and got some leathers (albeit cheap ones) and decided to ease off a bit. I'm a work in...

private.... :(

The strings on a stunt kite are sharp enough to cut skin by themselves. Hell, they can cut other stunt kites strings very easily . No glass needed.

pretty damn entertaining

$9800 in damages? The bike isn't even worth that much brand new!

No preaching out of me. Just a simple question which seemed to strike a chord. Yes I speed. Yes I wear gear and yes I believe well over 50% of riders would attempt to put their hands down during a high-side or low side. This is why my question was directed to those who wear jackets, yet...

Thanks for giving me your take on it. I don't preach gear, as far as i'm concerned Darwinism will run its course. Regardless of someone doing the speed limit or not, if you are wearing a jacket, why aren't you wearing gloves. It seems silly to me - if you fall you're naturally going to put your...
