Go Clipless?
So after years of abuse for riding flats- I go clipless, and why do I DNF my 1st expert race- 200 miles on brand new mallet C's and the right comes off the spindle. At least it was still clipped into my shoe!!
Gunchies right- How ironic is it that I finally go clipless and DNF my 1st expert ride because of the clipless pedal? pretty dang ironic I'd say. SHEESH!!
Believe in yourself? Well sure, of course. But be aware that "believing in myself" has been the root cause of most of my injuries.

I wont give you flack for platforms cuz I am right along side ya...by the way I still have the mallet C's I bought and some size 45 SixSixOne shoes if someone needs some(my attempt to steal your thread)...I broke the STUPID power link in my chain with 1/4 lap left for a bid DNF also..I am such a dumbazz...I ALWAYS used a chain tool and press the pin back together on my BMX bikes and should have on the MTB...it is llike that now...GREAT JOB TO ALL!!!!!

I have it on good authority that Ray was seen with a multi-tool taking apart his pedal so he wouldn't have to ride in the mud anymore. At least that is the rumor that I am starting.

What do you want me to do with that nut you handed me just before the start of your race?

You just hang on to my nuts for awhile, ok?

I like Crupi squares :)
does anyone use flats/platforms with the rat traps anymore? I call them rat traps the may be called toe straps instead. I had a pair on an older fisher that I used to ride.
