smash it with a singlejack

for a few pounds more the dawg is heavy duty bike with am 1" more of travel. i would have to say for the bikes being built today kona makes one of the better frames to withstand abuse and at a fair market value. the 06' propedal should be better. the energy lost from the bounce in a full suspension bike is gained ten fold from the abuse it saves your body on a long day of riding.

well lets see: i have not heard an original fred story in 10 years and that makes it a tired topic. on top of that i would say his attitude towards women is disgusting and borders abusive at times.

skis make the approach up to lk annette quite nice and quick. with snowshoes i might plan for a couple of hours depending on how much snow you encounter. we went up there a couple of times in like 01' and messed around. nice area in the winter, but in the summer lk annette is gross. have fun.

such a tired topic

it was hardly a secret before.

harry, there are bolts on that 5.13 route...all 4 of them. gnar!

you must have come along way since i saw you shaking on sky ridge.

.9+ a2 = really hard, conditions dependent

i would love to see a group of noobs on the braille book.

jt how is that progress? 5.15 does not really change climbing for like 99% of climbers. the way it is described on that website that is linked it sounds like a boulder problem and not a route....kinda dumb to mix the grading like that.

how do we get you to leave?

too bad the leap faces north, not much sun till you get a ways up.

the leap is buried and getting more buried...like i said we ha ve had feets of snow over night and more in the forcast till the weekend. but the leap is awesome!

right on cj001f....pinnacles is choss covered in poison oak.

guides are only needed for sport climbing areas where it is hard to distiguish between the bolts.

kozak...the repub/bush government has been the reason for huge increases in govt in the last 5 years. i dont think a single spending bill put forth by the repubs has been turned down. lets not talk about the pork barrelling by your congress and reps. just shows that both politcal parties are the same. they just try to spin their reality in a different light. onlhy real difference i can see is that bush is attempting to erode our personal rights for his and his friends profit.

jport i would say that all those climbs are not really suited for a large group of beginners. small ledges, natural anchors and long lines will affect yours and everyones elses enjoyment of the day. after the 1st belay ledge on nutcracker they get smaller and smaller...more then 2-3 people makes them awkward and potentially dangerous from crowding. have fun...we are getting pounded by the snow for the next week or so. muginella has considerable rockfall potential from climbers and hikers above. the grack is located on glacier point apron. spring is a bad time to be on the apron as spring melt increases extreme rockfall hazard.

i am not allowed there anymore....something about tequila and a teachers convention.

i think we need to check with mosschillen to see if theis will hold up to david grahams standards no matter what the grade is. and i am gonna say d+ for this thread.

ahh harriett, protecting her own interests under the guise of enviromental stewardship.

fake cracks deserve fake ratings.

already got my tax return. i dont shop at rei.

i dont know what that is.

kikapu is a good bike. they use the fox rear shock which has the propedal lockout..which works okay. there are extremely minor differences in the kikapu in the last 3 years, paint job and they change the name quite often.
