La Tierra Torture Race Registration and Raffle!
March 2nd, 2010
The website for the La Tierra Torture two day mountain bike event – here in Santa Fe - is now up and running for 2010 and registration is open:
or register at: www.newmexicosportsonline.com/events/details.aspx?id=121
This year I’ve agreed to donate a custom frame to support the race and the non-profits that share in the proceeds. So for ten dollars per ticket you can have a chance to win a fully custom O’Leary Built Bicycle. And the cool thing is that we are only going to sell 100 tickets (which can be purchased on the race registration website) the odds are going to be pretty good. Help support Santa Fe’s premier mountain bike event and register soon!
Commuter

Single speeder with a uni-crown fork. Needs more frame clean up before paint. Proto-type for an old school lugged mtn. bike with the perfect around town geometry: Rail trail, Dale Ball, ski area road? Ohori’s! I plan to offer frame and fork combos for $950 with paint. How about with a Sturmey-Archer 3 speed??? Leave that gas guzzler at home.
Dom’s 650B

Added a small bridge to the scalloped stays, and installed the cable guides under the top tube. All reamed and faced with seat post, headset and Rock Solid fork installed. Almost ready to roll…now about all that mud…

Wes Carr in action
Wes is a sophomore from Monte Del Sol School here in Santa Fe who tracked me down last fall and we are working together to produce his first custom frame through the school’s volunteer mentoring program. Good eye-sight and steady hands are marks of a good craftsman!
650B Wheel Size
January 22nd, 2010
650B is a great wheel size for running on trails and general all round cycling in rougher terrain. Take a look at my first 650B trekking model which I’ve been testing since we brought it on a summer trip up to Bozeman for some sweet single track.
It’s a really useful wheel size, without going to the extreme 29″ wheels. With Pacenti designed Kenda tires and a White Bros. Magic suspension fork the set up is a super nice rolling machine.
Stay tuned for more!
