Want It Wednesday, Surly Disc Trucker



I'd like to build up one of these for a winter bike/commuter. Of course, I'd only buy the frame and add my own choice of components. With the way I ride, I'm never satisfied with fully built bikes you buy off the rack and custom built ones are way out of reach, cash wise. In my opinion disc brakes are the way to go now and this road frame has all the tabs for disc's. Surly makes great frames and they won't break the bank. True their not fancy, but practical always wins in my book. Don't forget to check out Jez Andrews blog here.

Arrowing The Stori Century 100Mile Loop


URI



Rest stop.



Turf farms.

Some of our aerialifts at URI.
 Today was my second day in a row of arrowing the club ride. It seemed a lot harder than yesterdays loop, but had about the same amount of climbing. The worst part of these rides was I had about 10 miles of riding after arrowing, to get back to my car. With lots of hills in between.
