Pics from a tuesday night ride.

[splat]

Well Normally we ride thursday Nights , but this week being thanksgiving and all we rode tonight. was a little bit chilly tonight but once we got pedalling it quickly warmed up.

Here is IF_rider hucking a 2 foot drop

SloMoJo Coming down a rocky descent.

SloMoJo Riding yet another rock.

IF-rider coming down a Step Moss covered rock.

[splat]

and then all hell broke loose !

SloMoJo caught his rear derailuer in his spokes and promptly tore it off. but he was carrying a spare deraileur , so Here his is changing it. and of course nothing was going right , the cable frayed on him ( he had another ) , his chain got jammed between his crank and a frame , and then his battery was dying. and while this was going on. My light went out and started smoking like no tommorow. I melted the power connector , I guess that is what hppends when you replace a 12 watt bulb with a 28 watt. But I had my Emergency light so I pulled it out snapped it on my helmet.

and way here is SloMoJo and IF_rider playing bicycle repairmen

I thought i might be missing somthing staying home tonight, but, It dosent seem anything out of the ordinary happened.

[Luckybikes]

Just another night out with Slomojo and his traveling bikeshop, and Splat with his smoldering light system...FIRE! FIRE! ;D
Slomo - you win the "what do you carry in your camelbak" medal for carrying the most stuff!

[Mr Magoo]

I only get to Nam 3-4 X/yr, but that rock along the 495 fence is the most identifyable. I ride that rock from the other side heading south so I can drop off the end.

[AA]

Splat, you MUST use CP's flaming helmet rendering for your avatar... classic.

CP, perhaps you could whip up a SloMo pic with a Park repair stand attached to his camelbak.

[C.P.]

Here's slomojo with everything AND the kitchen sink

[radair]

LOL, the one time I rode with SloMoJo (at the Bear Brook Roast & Ride), he broke his derailleur and pulled one out of his pack to replace it!

Greg, either you go through a lot of derailleurs or you are just always prepared!

Love that flaming helmet.

[SloMoJo]

;D
Wisenhiemers!

Kitchen sink ... nice. ::)

It has been my experience that a spare derailler is more useful in the pack than at home.

I've done my part to keep SRAM in bidness. :-\

[splat]

Jezzz it never caught fire. It just smoldered a little. I did how evetr have one of my Home made catch fire once , that was amusing.

as for Carrying all the parts . well he just kept pulling part after part out of his bag of tricks.

[I Are Baboon]

Who the hell carries a spare derailleur in thier backpack!? :D

I'm going to start carrying a spare fork in mine.

<---- Ya mean like this ?

[gnurider1080]

i want to see slomojo break his frame and then pull out an welding torch and all that stuff to fix it. although its a bullit so i dont think itll be that easy to break it...

[AA]

<---- Ya mean like this ?



That's the ticket... those flames will come in handy on cold winter rides

[Luckybikes]

SloMoJo Rides a Titus loco-moto

[gnurider1080]

oh my bad. well in the dark it looks like a bullit to me. its because the lighting is bad. really, i dont have a problem identifying bikes.

The spare derailleur was one thing, but when he pulled out a new cable I was really impressed.

[Luckybikes]

Are you serious?

He had the spare cable to dam

Slo what camelback do you have?

[gnurider1080]

i think hes got technology from the future. its like that car from the jetsons that folds into a briefcase. im sure he just pushes a button and his house turns into a camelbak. just ask him and ill bet hes got a fridge in there somewhere.

[Luckybikes]

Do you have a Keg in there by chance?

[gnurider1080]

no wonder why everyone rides with him!!!! ;)

Almost everything. ;D

[jerseygirl]

I guess you just carry stuff with you based on past experiences. For example, I always have my HMO card with me.

[minkhiller]

And I always carry the "slow moving vehicle" symbol with me and that's for use on the trails.

[sizlinseagulsoup]

Splat - It looks like those flames are straight out of DOOM ;D
