        Would you say a Misty Mountain Hop, given Brock’s attire?

        Think it, be it.

          Fantastic ride and superb scenery! Love the second pic with the weirdest geological formations on the hillside…👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

          The journey is the objective.

                  I have a Moots Baxter which is more drop bar mountain bike as it can take 2.3 tyres.  I am running mine with crossmax mountain bike wheels.  Using a hybrid Di2 system with Grx levers paired with an XT mtb rear mech.  Works nicely and can be configured via the Shimano software, I am running mine with upshifts on both left hand levers and downshifts on the right hand levers.

                  There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.

                    Beautiful bike, @ddtrash made in Steamboat Springs, CO!

                          I did my first ever gravel ride yesterday. Resolved about 5 miles in that I needed a real gravel bike! Thinking about doing a custom build on a Crust Evasion. Anyway, some shots:

                              I've got a Crust Evasion in the works from a semi-local shop. Meanwhile I'm already accessorizing with a new bag from Ronnie Romance:

                                  @Brock This rig is dialed! Ronnie Romance would approve. How do you find the Fabio's Chest? Bounce factor negligible with that front rack? I have always had my eye on one.

                                      @dsco thank you. It’s even more dialed now days I think…

                                      The Fabio’s chest is definitely the IH of the bike bag world. And with a rack for support is solid. However when fully loaded and riding on the rough stuff I do worry about my carbon fork! 😬

                                      Here’s a couple recent pics of my smeltzer

                                        Some really nice bikes! Here’s my Richard Sachs cross bike used as my gravel grinder.
