Now back on track about colors and signs. I work in the printing industry and mix colors for a living and we could go baby blue which is 2905 all the way down to 2995 navy blue or anywhere in that color pallet. The green can run from 317 very light green all the way down to 3308 dark green. As for black you have pantone black 1-7. You can also print RGB,Hexacrome,Process,4color process black anything you like. It all depends on how you see the trail. If you are color blind then ride at your own risk (right Bart). This is based on the Pantone matching system some of you know what I speak of.

Damnit, now I have wobbly wheelz.  Who can true up a 26" wheel stretched to 29" wheel?

I don't think it will fit in frame or my fork now either.  Who's idea was this?  Can you stench a carbon swing arm?  what about a fox 36 lower, is there an adapter for this?

Do what you like. Stop hating people for their riding habits and get back to hating them for their skin color, religion, politics, and sexual orientation.

Fish Stix trail rating system is only rated for 29ers and ebikes. You are SOL if you are spinning 26 or 27.5 wheels and have to pedal everything without electric pedal assist.

All warranties are null and void once green trail is attempted. Nothing is green trail approved.


Now I have heard rumors of 1 guy that did make it through the whole trail. But he had an unobtainium frame, shock filled with unicorn sweat and had a road tire mounted inside his mountain bike tire filled to exactly 88 psi and then filled the MTB tire with gargoyle farts. But that's just folklore.


I heard they melted down the bike after so no one could make it through again, and used it to make the press that formed Captain America's Vibranium sheild.

Bye. I'm not the custodian of his bad attitude and misplaced frustration. It was lame to call out a trail in the way he did.  Tha doesn't make me a hypocrite but if it makes you feel better good job on being a man with such strong principles. Especially when it comes to helping to determine which trails not to ride and enjoy.

"Well you guys handled that better than the OP deserved if you ask me.  He basically came on here and acted like a butt hurt douche bag and insulted people and a trail that many (families) have no problem riding and enjoying.  I guess nobody got the memo the way prod was supposed to revolve around him?  I you can't ride something walk around it. If your family outing was ruined because of your attitude and frustration towards something that is your issue.  Bye. Fisher Farm is better off without you! 👎"

Great attitude!  I ride Lake Norman because its close to home, but attitudes like this is the reason why I've stopped riding Trail Blazer Trails and spend most of my time on dirt/country roads.  Do I think Fisher Green is too hard, no not in anyway.  But a guy complaining about being insulted using this language to insult the OP is what I like to call hypocritical.

When I'm elected president of the tarheel trailblazers I will build a big beautiful wall around all the green loops to keep those bad trail stealing green loops from taking our trails.  #blueandblackfirst

I've already started my big beautiful wall at Fisher. It's gonna be yuge

Fisher Farm doesn't need a wall.  Fisher Farm needs a transplant program.  When roots and rocks are no longer wanted at other trails they can be relocated to Fisher Farm's trails where they will be appreciated, loved, and nurtured.  This may require changing the main trail name to Widowmaker.

That will be taken care of under the Affordable Beer Act.

There will be 6 million people at the inaugural opening and we will get The Bad Green Loop Stealers to pay for it.
