    Broken Titanium rear spring - 2

    The more I look at that picture, the more troubled I am. That thing is rusty and ti does not rust. Look at it closely and you can see pits in the metal. Something is not right here. Mark

    Broken Titanium rear spring - 2

    My other observation is; the broken leaf in question looks pretty raspy... Even rusty? My spring is still the nice, dull color you expect from ti.

    My leaf spring looks to be in fine shape, with about 5000 miles on it. Mark

    Just another day at the beach

    We did, in fact, regroup at the bathrooms. Somebody said you had turned around, so I was surprised when you didn't roll up. Schedules are schedules, though. Speaking of schedules; our club picnic is the 8th and I'm chief cook and bottle washer... I might not be able to attend. :cry: I...

    Just another day at the beach

    Yesterday (7/25), our bike club did our monthly ride to the beach. To be honest, I like the SART to the beach about four times a year and I think I've met that and am now officially sick of the SART for another summer. ;) We started off at Backwoods BBQ in Corona. It was a pretty fast...

    Sweaty Seats

    I have nearly 11000 cruzin miles and have ridden in some pretty hot, albeit dry heat weather. I can honestly say I've had no issues with the Cruzbike pad. My commuter bike has some visible sweat stains,but it doesn't stink, or anything. Unlike my helmet, Good Lord! :shock:

    Sweaty Seats

    I'm a heavy sweater and haven't had any real issues with the Cruzbike seat cushions. The way the seat is contoured, I'm not sure you really need cushions! Mark

    Nice Morning Ride

    Today, I took the day off for my wife who had out-patient surgery. She didn't have to go into the hospital until noon, so I decided to take advantage of the early morning cool and went out to do some climbing. I did two laps around the Sunset loop, which has a few short but steep grades and...

    Renewed Enthusiasm

    Hey Bob, Most of the bikes I ride can be read about here and I also frequent THIS forum. Both places are pretty cool to hang out in. Mark

    Renewed Enthusiasm

    Sometimes, you just need a slap in the face, a boot in the butt, or a rude awakening of some sort to snap you out of a funk. For me, it was riding with recumbent guys that were faster than I am. Yes, yes, I realize there is always going to be somebody faster and being a competitive soul, I...

    Seat color?

    You can have any color you want as long as it's black! Mark

    Humbing Experience

    I'm a terrible judge of age. The one guy was quite a bit older than me, one of them was probably only a few years older. The third guy is probably my age, maybe a little younger. Definitely fit guys.... Fast! I've been knowing for sometime that I had kind of stagated in my progress. I've...
