Im having trouble understanding why they are so cheap...

great music in the two vids. the second was Chicago natives Rise Against. years ago my roommate worked at Jimmy Johns and delivered sandwiches to the guys in the band all the time. they lived on the same street as me.

love the mud

Lets be clear on what we call American beer... Massive corporations may have been born in America but they are world wide giants. Budweiser was sold last year and is now owned by Belgian-Brazilian conglomerate InBev. To find American beer you must be here on the south side of our city's streets, and the back roads of our hills and lakes. American beer is flowing hard with thousands of craft beer company's. As these companies lead the way in innovation and flavor, the rest of the world is years behind. Im pretty sure a Canadian beer sitting in my fridge is the same beer thats been there since the 80's. Here in Chicago, it is not uncommon for my local bar to have endless amounts of styles and flavors and full body pieces of art. with 6-7 different draft coming and going thought the week. ...I guess the question you have to ask your self is if you can judge how good American beer really is? ....Great great video. id love to go sometime and eat fondue and drink beers and enjoy the ride.

People call me 7...

reminds me of a Midwest trail...

This past summer 29ers exploded in the trail system i ride in. as i follow my buddies on there 29er i noticed that the old line we would race through were going away. they were just rolling over everything. ...if you do the math, i could build a 42 inch bike and roll over ever obstacle in the woods. but somewhere along the way it loses its fun. i love finding that perfect line and using my body and bike to pump through the woods. I see why 29 is an advantage but where does it end. and its like i either get a 29er or move over as the rest fly past me. the trails iv know forever are changing and becoming 29 worn. ...i personaly feel its not a advancement in technology but a new kind of biking all together.
