    Smile Me and the Moonlander!

    Name: Justin, aka Gear
    bicycle Surly- Moonlander 18", aka Fat Bike
    Reason for the purchase Well lets see, I turned 40 years of age. I was getting tired of running on a tread mill at the gym. The weights at the gym did not look very inviting. I was looking for a reason to get back Outside!
    Why this thread I wanted a place to post up a photograph or two of my rides. Sort of a visual reminder for me to get off my butt and stay active.

    Sweet!!! I looked at the Moonlander but the 18 was too small and the 20 was too big. I ended up getting a Mukluk which was just right.
    Be wary, keep a watch tonight, make sure your weapon is at hand.

    Ah Yes the Mukluk, another fine example of a Fat Bike. We should get together for a ride. Do you ever get down to North San Diego?
