Tweaking..................

I am in Love!!! lol







Just got my Pugs home.
i'll take some better pictures as time allows.







well,
my fat bike is almost ready.

I guess I'm one picky SOB, but ya know what......... I haven't got a new bike in 9 fricking years, so your damn straight I'm gonna be a picky SOB!!!
Cause it might be another 9 years till i get another....... so f%@# it!!

So here's some shop photo's, until i pedal her outside for good.
i still can't believe it weighs 36#, i was thinking more around the 40-43 range DAMN!!!

A big heartfelt thanks to Calvin at Bikes On Howard!!!

I won't tell your wife you plan on getting a Pugsley now too!!! ;)

Ode To The Headset!!?

Dear Mr. King,

why oh why, do you make me wait??

I have the fat rims and the rubber that meets the snow, and the gears to make it go.
The gears and cranks I love Mr. Whirly so, everything is ready to go!
The BB7's and cables are aglow, the H-bars and brake levers are itching to go!

But alas Mr King, your shiny red headset is moving so slow.

Here's to another 7 days to sit and wait....... Oh No!!

Why is it that what a guy wants to do 1st he can't??
Such is life in the great game of..........waiting for my Pugsley to go!!!!!
Grrrrrrrrr


Peace........

So it will Begin......




65mm of goodness!!!



As soon as my Pug gets done, this will be the place for me to post my adventures, and so... for you to read about said adventures.

For those of you that stumbled upon this blog, and are saying WTF is a Pugsley??
It is a true Fat tire mountain bike, (damn near 4" wide tires), that will take you over sand and snow, and damn near anything else you throw at it!!
There are other companies that make Fat Bikes, but how could I pass up keeping my hard earned $$$$ in state, and at my LBS??
It's made by Surly Bikes (see links), right here in the great state of Minnesota.

Now, I live in northern Mn. and we have much more snow than sand, so most of my adventure will deal with snow.
although I think I might have to find some sand in the near future!!
Lake Superior here I come!!! LOL

A big shout-out goes to coastrider (you the man!!) for the suggestion about making this blog, dedicated to (my) the great Surly Pugsley!!!

Thanks man!!!

Peace...........................
