Hi all from the Eastside of Seattle.

Been riding a while, have a garage full of bikes, a den my wife let me convert to a shop, and a 10x12 shed full of other toys including climbing and kayaking gear. Yes, I am completely out of hand.

My favorite thing? I cool October ride, with my Dog trotting along. Sometimes my wife comes too! : )

Welcome to the forums Alan, I'd read a few of your posts. There are enough people from Washington around that I wasn't sure if you were new or not. Are you racing in one of the WA cross series this fall?

New to the forum, yes. New to WA, or Cross, no. What I do and "racing" are somewhat similar only in theory. : ) However, I'll be coming over to Easter WA (Spokane) to participate in the state championships. I won't be first, but I won't, hopefully be last.

Freudian slip? So that's how you think of Eastern WA, huh? Sortof like "Easter Island", remote and rarely visited!? :mad: :D Sscyco and I will be racing in the Spokane series so we will see you at the state championships, good luck this fall. If you happen by Walla Walla let me know.
