I’ve got volume I and II of Whitewater Home Companion.
for all the shit we talk about riv that bike is hot.
Until you see the quill stem .
We need to make a list of these goofy hand-illustrated but heartfelt treatises on different hobbies.
This first reminded me of the The Curtis Creek Manifesto:
I’d still shit talk Riv even if I get a Riv, which I hope I do now. Grant’s a kook.
I recognize that art style! I had “The Mountain Bike Way of Knowledge” as a teen
I don’t have a bike with a quill stem but to me they seem a fuckload more logical with no real downside for 99% of riders
The above is one of y’alls, right?
I at one point tried to get ronnie on here but to no avail.
sleepanddestroy is me
people who have a brand of bike stuff
grifty social media influencers
My ideal mix for this forum, not forgetting
harmless bike weirdos
What makes him grifty? Of all the grifters out there, to begrudge a bike nerd making cycling for fun cool is kind of strange for another bike person?
I don’t get it - is this video supposd to be pointed commentary or multiple levels of irony or some kind of koan?
thank you
but seriously, i share your bemusement. whatever that instagram thing is, it is above my power level
I assumed it was half joke and half ironic admission
Yeah I don’t see the grift. I just see an influencer (for better or worse)
