They must be ex-navy too, my kind of people! Shame though, I won't be dipping that far south.
I've been on the road for a week now and long over due for throwing a shout out just to say I may be in the area of several of you miscreants and...
If you meant Wilkesboro, NC, there's definitely lots good play around there. Start with a run up to Mouth of Wilson on either 13 or 16 (16 is...
A nice write up and photo illustrations, but I have to take exception to your statement that it doesn't matter which side you start with. It may....
Definitely a trip with lots of options. Personally, cities don't do anything for me when I'm travelling by bike, I avoid them like the plague. I...

Three severe wind experiences: Puget Sound area, riding along on a sunny day with dense forest flanking the road. No wind issues at all. Came to...

2oz of weight is more than usually needed to balance a tire/wheel combo, but it's not grossly excessive. That being said, bitterpil's comment...

I'll take my chances with the pictures, but if you show up with time and tread that could've been spent in the Colorado mountains, I will flush...
