26 October 2011 - 13:47Ask George
It is obvious that I can only write so much about gravel road rides before they become completely boring. I mean, how do you top a house on fire? Anyway, the season of crappy bike riding is nigh for many of us. On Thursday we have snow levels forecast as low as the valley floors here in central VT, which means it will likely be 70°. But it’s practically Novemeber. It is unavoidable. Winter is coming.
So.
I’ve decided that Wednesday will be “Ask George” Day. Comment on this post, and I will select a random question, or one that I like the most, and answer it. I will only consider questions for next Wednesday on comments on this week’s post, so don’t chime in on Thursday expecting to be on the train. It’s a hump day thing. And on it will perpetuate. Next Wednesdays’s comments will be answered the following Wednesday etc etc etc until it stops snowing, or I have something really amazing to tell you that can’t wait until Thursday. Or until Dicky starts posting on Wednesdays again.
The question can be about anything PG13-esque, and hopefully bike related. Wednesday to Wednesday. You’ve been warned. Who knows, maybe I’ll even answer more than one question. we’ll just have to see.
GO

I like this!
What should I be doing to keep my fork riding well? Is custom fork tuning just kind of a scam?
I have other bike related questions too, like why did Niner stop using the best paint color? And why does Schwalbe give their tires such weird names? And why don’t people make titanium forks?
I anxiously await answers!

what is in those blue bins in Dicky’s bike room?
why have you not received a dicky club t-shirt?
why are we limited to 100mm front hubs? wider hubs will help take the bike wheels to the DH arena.
