I have a KH Fusion Zero on this one.
I think both your saddles are uncomfortable!
Well, I have 2 things going for me:
- These are the only saddles I have ever experienced, so I don’t know any better yet
- I still can’t ride very far, my legs or lungs give out way before my saddle starts to feel unbearable!
It definitely seems like it would not take long before the club saddle would start to feel like it’s growing teeth though. I was thinking of trying a KH freeride, but maybe the cover (or both!) Is worth trying.
Blue blade I have both the free ride and the air cover. I usually get naysayers calling me out for recommending the air saddle cover but I am a verified user and highly recommend it. While the free ride is comfortable in my opinion on its own the air cover will make all most any saddle more comfortable. I have the air saddle cover on 3 of my unicycles. there are lots of posts on this subject use the search feature and you will find lots of info and opinions, best wishes.
There’s no right or wrong when it comes to saddles. Everybody is shaped differently, and you’ll also likely find that your preference changes over time. You just have to experiment.
My latest ride was today. A little bit of Trial. The cranks are 100 mm long,very short for Trial I know that.
This place is within minutes of UDC. I stopped in for a quick ride with the dog today. It was pretty hot out and I didn’t want to push the pup very hard. We went less than three miles on the access trail/beginners loop.
I like the sign.
Young dogs can have some amazing endurance. A sporting or working breed between 1 and 4 years old can just lope along for miles at a time. I took my golden retriever out for a 20 mile ride once when she was about 2 years old and she didn’t show any signs of getting tired until about mile 17. She was used to running 8-10 miles a day with me however and would be bouncing up and down by the door when it was time to go for a ride. She’s pushing 11 now and 3 miles is about her limit.
I like that bikes have right of way which makes a change!
Is that legally or do people actually give it?
I’m thinking that sign is displayed to keep mountain bikers from being sued, should a collision happen due to a hiker not yielding the right of way.
Personally, I’d be guessing that it’s a local mountain bike club that does most of the trail maintenance and that they post rules that favor their interests. And I’ve got no problem with that whatsoever. There are so many trails around here that are closed to bikes that I totally understand them wanting to have a bit of dominion over the trails they can ride and likely made and maintain.
Not to start an argument; but it’s not up to the local bike club to make that decision. They may or may not have the right to set up signs.
“No one wheels - execpt for unicycles” - I’m reading that as “no electric one wheels.” Cause, what else could it be?
From Wiki, Onewheel is a self-balancing single wheel electric board-sport, recreational personal transporter, often described as an electric skateboard. Unlike the electric unicycle, the rider’s feet (and body) are typically pointed at a perpendicular angle to the wheel and direction of travel.
Those are purpose built mountain bike trails which allow hikers, so bikes get priority.
Yes, biking area first. The sign in front says ‘Blankets Creek Mountain Bike Trails’
The directional trail that I saw was signed so that foot traffic is counter to cyclists.
Yup they probably don’t like the electric Onewheel…
Mine does not get much use after I got into Unicycling…
Considering that they provide the link to the bicycle clubs website for questions about whether the trails are open or closed, I’d say that answers the question of whether they can post signs or whether they have any say in making the rules pretty conclusively.
The parks department or the county aren’t going to be out there determining which direction traffic should flow on a mountain bike trail.
Oh boy I have been riding on a trail since the early 80’s that is now called the “Fullerton Loop”. Some friends and I laid out a trail that joined all of the local horse and foot trails together into one loop trail and with a local bike shop owner(Mark Salomon TCB) made a map of it for other riders. About 30 years ago mountain biking erupted and every wednesday the local bike shops started sponsoring rides. One day riding to meet up with friends, as I was passed in the other direction by mountain bikers I was told “Your going in the wrong direction”. Thats funny I thought, I’ve been riding this way on my columbia uni for years before most of these riders were born and now I’m going the wrong way. The story of my life.
I can understand it on certain downhill trails. It’s just not safe to have two way traffic when bikes are going 20+ mph.
Fortunately near where I live there are relatively few one way trails.
