I really wanted to win that Dirt Tracker. Glad your son has been enjoying it! I ended up buying and building up a frame. Its just a super capable and incredibly fun bike to be on. Nice write up and love the 12 adventures in 26 plan.

slingshots are cool. as long as you're responsible and don't shoot wildlife and others, then have fun. sure you can get a cheaper one from some other place. go for it. we can also do the same with our bikes and bags for our trips. nothing wrong with being frugal or spending a little on something you want.

i actually ordered a WZRD spellcaster slingshot yesterday. I like the design and wanted to support someone doing cool stuff.

Stories like these make me so happy! Love the ABOB team and what they are doing and very proud of you for getting yourself back up through the setbacks! The DFL party was such a blast!

Finally got my Stooge Dirt Tracker built up and its just a super fun bike to ride on or off road, but definitely rips on dirt.

Really nice build on your Rambler! Looks like a blast ride.

Waiting on my frame, have these at home waiting to build up. Yes, they were more expensive, but matched what i wanted for a dream build. cant wait to get it put together.

Also, thanks for stopping and chatting at MADE while i picked your brain on these, Nic. Helped bite the bullet on them as well to the Velo Orange team for letting me test ride their bike with the growtac brakes and levers.

Also met Alder at made this year, very briefly. He seems like a really great dude and you can tell he just loves riding and talking bikes. Told him that Rod is my dream bike and i'm currently saving my pennies to get one custom made soon! Glad he and Max are taking over. Seems like great days will continue for Rodriguez.

Trying to pick up a girl in P4 and her ending up being a crazy religious girl, then just bailing on her. I laughed pretty hard. Funny moment amongst so many more in Persona.
