Bikeguide is dead because of you. Sheep should stop saying server fees.

Pretty sure Kurt from BMX Union has been footing the bill for many years, bu tyour point is valid. Sheepdog has been gone for a long while, but I'd love to know what he's up to these days!

I was just joking but this used to be really great for reviews and advice on parts. I have came in and out over the years but I wish there were more resources out there

I did it for a while with the Profile shouldered peg 3/8ths bolts and bent 3-4 bolts in probably about a year period while not riding my 20 a whole lot. 

I'm super sketchy though and eat shit on handrails and clip uprights...

Is Profile still using 3/8-16? The coarse thread bolts are weaker than the fine 3/8-24 Odyssey uses...way deeper roots on the threads.

Yeh, they are 3/8 16 thread.  Funny thing is, I haven't broken any of the bolts.  I've just bent a couple near where the thread meets the bolt head.

Our town just built a new park, might have to get back into it too.

I grew up with barely anywhere to ride, and now brand new concrete parks have been popping up EVERYWHERE around New England over the past 5 years. Managed to drag a few old friends back into riding.

Buenos dias senors y senoritas.

Been a long time, but I'm still riding bikes.  I fluctuate between my 20, 26 dirt jumper, and 26 street jumper pretty frequently. 

The street jumper is a super weird bike, but really fun.  I'll post up a bike check soon.

I's been forever since I have posted here, haven't been riding much lately but I'm getting back into it. Just thought I'd say hi and see who is still around.

Good to see that you're getting back into riding!
