    Great looking ride 👍 next time I visit paso, I may need to venture to Santa Barbara. The Time looks like a beautiful bike. I have Rival on my Aethos and I love the drive train. I have about 6k miles on it so far and It is a great value. I am enjoying your videos and equipment reviews…thank you and yeah, double double is a go to here in the Bay Area too🙂

      It’s a great ride. It’s not an easy one for mere mortals but it’s a great one. Glad you are watching! And Paso has some excellent riding and wining!

    Great ride video. Saw the tuner bike reviews and would go with the cyclosys as well of the two tested. Also thinking of time bike for my next bike once they are fully setup back on east coast to make frames.Time makes beautiful frames. Besides GMR/Baldy guessing it is onyx summit-Hwy 38 from redlands, but that could be under snow now for top climbs in SoCal. Others are Wilson, hwy 39 to the 2 then to summit, oak glen, Mt Laguna and Palomar.

      Onyx from the valley is a big day, but some of that traffic on that narrow road is daunting. I used to do Onyx from the BB side and that was just a great workout ride and sweet DH! I avoid Hwy 2 to Wilson like the plague. Crazy drivers. But GMR has always treated me really well, vehicles wise. It's easier than Gibraltar IMO, just longer. I would like to do Crystal Lake too, near GMR. Palomar I almost did one day, but the temps were dropping below freezing and we pulled the pin on that ride just a mile or so from the 'top'. Some warmer day!

      You don't have to use low gears but you can't use a low gear that you do not have.

    With exemption of your constant mentioning of your "Age" your videos are pleasant to watch.

      Hah! Point taken...actually I had this input a bit ago and, I think, corrected a bit. But I am what I am.
      Thanks for the feedback.
