  1. I've been riding all winter in this shit cold.

     

    I'm saving to build up a Salsa Vaya and retire my Steamroller to bad weather/beater status.

     

    What kind of protection will I need to invest in to make sure I don't get it stolen? What type of maintenance do you put into your bikes and how often?

    A U-lock should be enough, but a U-lock and cable will allow you to keep your front wheel and seat safe. I connected a chain from the seat rails to the top tube to keep my saddle from getting stolen. My current ride is a fixed-gear, so the only frequent maintenance is making sure the chain is clean and lubed and that the brakes are working.

     

    It's not the Rega P1 of bikes, but the Surly Cross Check is a do-everything bike that can be ridden fixed, single, or geared. They have added clearance for larger tires and a steel frame that takes a beating and works just as well on single-track as it does on pavement.

    hey... we're releasing a "rarities/collection" record on Asian Man Records sometime in May.

    it's going to have a song on it that we just recorded about a week ago.

    also, in order to celebrate the release of the record, we're playing a show in Philly on May 24th. full lineup TBA.

    we're not sure what this means for us as a band, but we're excited to play this show and have a really fun night with a lot of good people.
