Yea, I live in PoCo so I'm always ripping gravel in the area and hydrating at the breweries (Taylight a favorite). I was riding the PoCo trail yesterday and would be up for joining you guys on a ride. I'll look out for your grey Tacoma and come say hi at the swap meet on Sunday

Great Photos Clubby and brings back memories from that epic Macretro ride we had there 
Sackoohrah, Looks a nice day for it and a bit better than it's been up this way lately. Whereabouts is that?
For me, well the last week has been rubbish up this way, gale force winds, rain and as can be expected when UI have my holidays booked
I spent Saturday afternoon finishing off putting gears on my Pugsley!!! I know, I know, obviously I have had some sort of breakdown and put a 1X9 setup on it. I already had the XT hub running the singlespeed so I swapped it out for a 12/34 and kept my 32 ring on the front. I have secretly had a 9 speed long cage XT mech for it and a Microshift thumbshifter since about 2012 or so, just took me a while to round to fitting it.
I did this for several reasons, 1 to make it a bit more versatile and to generally just change it round after riding it singlespeed exclusively since I built it 11 or 12 years ago now. Also as Caleb is just about outgrown his Baby Fatty On One and he fits the Pugs, then he will just get the Pugs and I will ride the 1X1. He is used to gears and will utilise it better with than without.
Today the weather was good and so this afternoon I took it out for a bit of a shakedown and play on the dirt roads to the west around Loch More and south in the flow country. Good afternoon for it as it stayed reasonably dry, just the odd little shower but with a good bit of sunshine poking through. The Pugsley ran fine with the gears being spot on and more just tweaking the cockpit a bit as I have put the Geoff bars back on as well. I was surprised by the Microshift thumbie as it felt a bit loose on the mounting but tight on the indexing, but in use it was one click each time and straight into gear, very precise, very solid feeling. Am going riding with Brian tomorrow, most likely around the Puffer track trails so that will be interesting as while we ride there regularly as well as at the Puffer, I have only ever run singlespeed so that will be fun.
Here is a couple photo.
