Taking care of pesky cyclocross rim brakes.

Obviously we're not 'pros' or 'professional bicycle racers'.  What we're actually doing is… Continue

ATTN SOCAL CROSSERS!

SoCal people: I’m looking for host housing for Bonelli-Fontana weekends for 4 people (3/13-3/24)… We are charming (they are well-mannered Canadians and I am fairly nice and have started to say "eh" at the end of things, so kind of count) and very easy to have around the house. Like quiet housepets that use the shower and toilet and fridge. (We can split up into 2 groups/jump from place to place if necessary.) Will provide beer, snacks and excellent conversation.

For Sale: Salsa Chili Con Crosso 55 cm (~57 or 58 cm) frame and fork + extras
