Last night I went to downtown MPLS to check out the Nature Valley Grand Prix.... Then the hail and rain came...

And oohhh yeah... Doin trials in pouring rain with hail! Awesome time! I ended up riding for about 2 hours around Peavey Plaza and Nicollet Mall in this $hit. Talk about fun. Soaked head to toe.

Where am I going with this story?


The new RED ECHO pads work in the wet. 100%

Were you on a silver bike hopping up and down the stairs? You were doing some impressive stuff.

That rain was intense! I was directing cars at a grad party in it for 4 hours, lots of fun running around in pochos telling old people where to park. 4 hours work...$60....:) . Easiest money ever. (pays off to live next to rich people hehe)

Yeah i cant bike in the rain, my pedals are so worn that my feet slip off and i cut my shins up like crazy.

Hey man, I ran into you last night. I was wearing a yellow greatful dead jersey, on my fixie. Bummed I missed the ride, but it was good talking to you. Hopefully I'll catch you on your next ride downtown. let me know when you'll be back. I'm still recovering from a busted arm/ankle, but I'm down for a ride!

Hey john, how was the demo? By the time i thought about coming it was getting late. Ride would have been fun yesturday but until my new rims and pads come, it doesn't work wet anyway.

I'm not riding for the next six weeks my ass.


...also, i want to see our maxxis "comp" photos.
