    No stoker crank. Wild.

    $200 is a bargain. Tandems are usually damn expensive, even shitty ones.

    He means the drivetrain is set up like on a Schwinn Twinn.

    The synch chain is on the drive side.

    Parker, I checked it out at your house while you were at work just now. It looks super sick. minor adjustments or whatever, but it looks super cool. you guys could totally take it on some trails.

    that Google Maps FINALLY added a 'bicycling' option when getting directions. they took forever, but it is finally here.

    So far it is giving me different routes than I would normally take, but it looks like they did a kickass job of mapping portland's bike paths and boulevards

    I know! Thanks for taking so f*cking long. Its like google has been sitting on their asses while you worked so hard on it!

    Honestly I thought about it a long time ago, but adding it this week caught me out of the blue. Giant kudos to them.

    For within Portland just use http://bycycle.org/regions/portlandor

    But that's rad google finally added that, I always wanted it to be there and was like "wtf is that not there?"

    But yeah, http://bycycle.org/regions/portlandor rules pretty much.

    Just rode the MASH. Goddamn. Shit-eating grin, my friends. The Grey Goose rides like a dream.

    Actually, I just threw the post in, and rode it later, and it fits better than the Trek. even with the more aggressive angles, it was really comfortable.
