[RBW] Re: What do Ricendell riders use for cycling shoes (not clipless).

2015-04-30 Thread Irving (boyzonthehoods.com)
I got a pair of Chrome Mirko's 
http://www.chromeindustries.com/us/en/footwear/forged-rubber-mirko-black-gum 
earlier 
this year as an alternative to Adidas Samba's. They are pretty comfortable, 
but the sole durability and grip seems to be lacking, especially for an $85 
shoe. It's got nice reflective bits on the rear of the shoe but I think I 
may be back to the tried and true Samba's after these bite the dust.

Manny, there's also this 47cm Betty Foy

I was eyeing for awhile. 

You should get it. And save me the trouble of inquiring about it for my SO.

 Magical labor day weekend.

 Last real overnight before school takes over my weekends.

 Big group towards HMB. Pretty much perfected the route by not riding on 
 HW1 at all. Beautiful route filled with new dirt trails and trekking 
 through horse pooped water. Met up with Brian Oei  and love-ones who just 
 recently came back from his tour in Oregon. (Check out that ride report 
 here: http://www.boyzonthehoods.com/

 )

 Lovely night despite sleeping on the ground. Had to just sleep under a 
 tarp so ended up with mosquitos making sweet love to my face. 
 Woke up with semi swollen eye and a soccer ball hitting my head.

 Great way to start a morning.

 We continued the route, again limited our chances on riding along HW1 and 
 rode the last hard climb on Purisima. But not before a couple of hikers 
 lets us smell their scented oils mid way through the climb to help us 
 finish strong.

 Had a blast of a weekend and great way to finish summer.

 Pictures proved that when I don't plan the route things go great:

Thanks for the comments Hugh. I kind of had a frazzled week before the ride 
so I knew my ride report was already going to be a stretch to comprehend. In 
my draft post, I began to elaborate on my inner conflicts about living in 
the city but it just made the post longer and NOT about bike riding. In 
short, I get bummed about living in such an expensive city, I miss my 
friends and family in LA (back to BLADE RUNNER, haha) and I have my own 
doubts about where I'll be career and life wise years from now... but then 
on a ride like this past weekend's, when I meet a bunch of new people who 
share the same appreciation of rad bike rides, I can't help but think it's 
all worth it.
