Picked up this Salso Fargo kinda randomly while in Reno for work in March. Guy selling it was a super rad, older bike wizard who had built this up for his son for a trip in 🇬🇪 that was cancelled. Essentially a brand new bike.
My first bike with a 1x drivetrain, disc brakes and carbon anything. Pictured below on a ride in Upper #BidwellPark in #ChicoCA.
I'll use it for some #bikepacking myself, but primarily going to use it for local #gravel rides here in #NorCal.
...and I thought this one was good, bringing up a generational split that I couldn't wedge into my own letter.
I read your editorial on the split in city council. The liberal/conservative split seems obvious, but I wonder about an older vs. younger split: a younger generation looking at data that shows walkable downtowns are more vibrant…
I also wrote a letter to the editor on this. #ChicoCA
I am disappointed in the Chico City Council’s failure to approve a plan to improve our downtown alongside the upcoming sewer project. Integrating streetscape and traffic flow improvements during mandatory sewer work was a rare,…
Any other Fedizens from #NorCal or beyond riding the Wildflower in #ChicoCA #ButteCounty tomorrow?
Attempting my first century. Zoinks.
My town of #ChicoCA is screwing the pooch (again). We need to tear up our #downtown streets to replace aging sewer lines. When we rebuild, #CA offers a grant to make those streets more #walkable & #bike friendly.
Last night, the City Council failed to approve a plan that would meet those goals & allow us to apply for that grant.
Currently, we have three lanes running through downtown, on two parallel streets. It's the *only* place in town with three-lane roads. Disappointed.
