    @slomosapien trying to set a PR on Fo Shizzle at Sycamore Canyon. Skipped the jumps.

    Nice video Josh. What might have been strava failed that night.
    @herzalot not sure what I-9's meant.

    @slomosapien Loudest rear hub known to man... Quite possibly on the back of @Sidewalk's bike during filming? Especially noticeable at 3:40.

    Ah, those are Valor hoops on his bike. Not sure what hub comes on them. I just ride not to hip on the parts out there.

    The I-9s and Chris Kings have a distinctive loud sound because of their lightning quick engagement. The sound has become sort of an icon for blingy hubs.

    It's an observation - not a critique. Nice fast riding in the video, JJ - aka NOT Slomo...

    Stan's Neo Ultimate. I think they are actually quieter than the last generation, still loud.

    Hmmm, OK. I have Stans Neo - and they are pretty quiet. I guess "Ultimate" means lots more pawls!

    I've heard some DT Swiss 350s that are super loud, and some 350s that are quiet. Don't know why the difference. My DT 240s were very quiet.

    I doubt his Neo is really that loud. I believe the sound of the Neo along with the shifting and other clunks are resonating through the bike and into the camera because it's hard mounted to the bars. Compared to the MM video I posted recently none of that is heard with a helmet mounted camera. Even with I9's.

    Cool run on Fo Shizzle guys! I have yet to explore that side of Alessandro. Thanks for posting.

    Farmer Boys, we eat dinner after the ride. Roll out is usually closer to 6:15

    That's the one! Look for the "white" F150 that clearly just rolled off the ranch and you'll know you've got the right spot.

    Sounds good. I won't be able to commit until I actually roll up, but I'll try and make some of these.

    Sweet, no pressure make it when you can. Only a few of us need to be committed.

    Late starts are always accepted. Once in a while someone has to roll in late and we just plan around it. You can always shoot a message (I can PM my phone) and coordinate around it.
