Do you find yourself thinking of people from here? EJ said he saw a Ninja bike and thought of Lauren. TG said he saw a couple in line and thought of me and Boogs.


I think of Pheard anytime something silly happens because he is funny like that and I think of Serendipper when I see my co worker because of the personality type and mellowness about him. I think of Stacey when I go to feed my snakes (:eek: sorry! :o ) and I think of Boogs everyday.

How about you? :D

I think of sbw when I feel like riding and remember she hasn't rode with me yet. I had a dream last night, this chick was super hot and asian. She started speaking to me in a different language. Man I was mad when I woke up, instantly I was thinking ahhhhhh that chick reminded me of sbw. Then I felt weird, cuz she's like my sista from another mother. (it was all my minds fault)

I think of bdg whenever I have pain in my legs from running. When I was jogging in the redwoods on saturday, I knew shad would have loved it thus reminding me of her.

Anytime I have a problem with my bike, I'm thinking of konarider.

All the time.

This is real life, right?

What's this "real life" that you speak of? I can't find that subforum.

I saw a squirrel eating out of my dog's bowl. I let my dog out to pee, and the squirrel ran away so fast he ran right into a tree and knocked himself out.

I immediately thought of Pheard.

I actually had a dream me and MERTON hung out once, except he looked a lot like Vanilla Ice's cousin I met in Gainesville with the pitbulls.

I think of people by neighborhood so if I'm riding through a neighborhood and I know someone from that neighborhood, I think of them.

Serendipper

Everytime I'm on the hoods climbing a steep hill, I think of Jason.

I hope my form is as good as his, and wonder what gear he would choose for the climb.

I often think of Kris. Just sorta do.

Same with Shadiyah. I'm grown enough to see her for her spirit, which is kin to mine.

Same goes for Zorro and Maelstrom, even though they are way different.

I think of Koffee, and often miss her fortitude. I think of Joe and admire his youth, ambition, and restraint.

I think of dex whenever I roll past starbucks, and Juvi-Kyle when I roll past a designer boutique. Sometimes when I think of one, I think of the other.


I think of TG and wonder "why?"

I think of Tom Stormcrowe and think there are second chances in life. Fitzgerald was right. (Then I think of Lauren).

Which makes me think of motorcycles, then Stacey comes to mind. Then I think of Mandy. Then I think of fixed gears, dolface, [165] and the crew....

Who are all so controversial in their thinking, I can't help but think of red house, CRUM, Johnny Monkey, Laika, randya, and the P&R II peanut gallery.

I could go on for days, as I often think of many members of the forums.

I guess you could say I am a thoughtful person.:)

:o I've had my share of problems with trees. They hate me. What did I ever do?

MEANIES! no tropical skittles for you. *crams sugar lumps into mouth* mhhhmm...

I think of KT and Stacey and how it would be like to get together with them for lunch and a little bs. I think it would be cool to get the original siblings in one place just to spend time with each other.

I think about KonaRider and LowCel when I see race reports and how I would just love to watch them do their thing. Be there to cheer them on and go crazy over them and their accomplishments.

I think of Ritesedad and how supportive he is when I'm feeling down.

I think of Tom, goobers, "white legs" and Powerhouse when I lose strength. Those guys are awesome

I think of giantfcr1 when I wish I was in a better place instead of this ghetto neighborhood.

I'd also have to add, hambone, girlscout, and 66' when I think of riding in new places. I know it'd be awesome to ride over there. They definitely know what mtbing is about, having a good time.

I don't really make connections between people on the internet and people in real life. If I haven't met you personally, I really have no reason to be thinking of you. That being said, I have no life! So I guess I'll just have to spend some quality time in the real world of BikeForums!

When my boss asks me a really stupid question, I think of MERTON

Siu Blue Wind
09-19-06, 07:42 AM
Funny you should say that! Just the other day, someone at work asked me something completely out there and I just stared at him for a few seconds, then turned to walk away. But not before I said. "okay, merton." He stood there with this "huh?" look on his face. :lol:

Yes. Quite often. Maybe some day, I'll actually meet someone from Foo.

I think of people from here often.. specially if they have a race or a ride.. I always think of them on thier special day.. or if someone is hurt, they cross my mind, wondering how they are..
Some people Im more fond then others, they will cross my mind here and there with no reason.

Do you find yourself thinking of people from here?


This is very spooky. I thought of you this morning when I saw a Kona MTB. It was in very bad condition and I thought "Siu would never let this happen" :)

I thought of Shadiyah this weekend only cause a bunch of us girls are talking about a trip to Moab in a few weeks and I thought it would be cool if she could come down there and ride some. :) I alway think about Shifty cause he is in Oregan and we have a good, good friend there too and we are thinking about making a trip out there next May.
I thought about S.dex cause he was riding in the mountains over the weekend and I wondered if he was okay with our crazy winds???
Yeah I think about some people it just depends what happens.

I keep a sort of running commentary of the world in my mind, and make lots of tangential connections between different thoughts. It can be problematic because I'll suddenly recall a silly Foo conversation while away from Foo and start laughing -- I might be on my bike, cooking, sitting in my new office, wherever. I get a lot of strange looks when this happens.

When foosters have said they're going through tough times, I can't help but think of them. I'll probably never meet most of you, but that doesn't mean these posts are meaningless. I'm really glad I've found this place, and you all make it what it is. So, thank you for that. It's wonderful to have a place where I can come for a laugh, to learn something, or to be inspired. It's not a replacement for one's "real life" but I'm glad I can make it a part of mine. :)

I think of Snowy about once a week when I look at my schedule and wonder if I'll ever get a chance to ride with her again before the season's over --and oh, I bagged the ride in the mountains Saturday, the weather was blech. Hoping for better conditions this weekend --going back to RMNP and hoping to ride Trail Ridge Rd again.


Let's see, I tend to do dumb stuff during the day, and wonder about posting about it.

I think of the OCP crew pretty much anytime I see another bike.

And the lot of you cross my mind, here and there, for no reason(s) whatsoever ...

snowy
09-19-06, 10:00 AM
The season is NEVER over. I remember I rode my bike on Thanksgiving day last year. OH OH you ski though I forgot. :)

I think of you Foosters a lot myself....about 5 of you quite often, SBW, You cross my mind and I truly wonder what you look like!

Michigander, I think of you when a empty a clip on my AK on the range......after getting away with the equivalent of full auto by "Bump Firing" it!

Serendipper, you've fired off enough supportive posts......wehat can I say, I appreciate them (along with every one else
Stacey, you've crossed my mind often enough! I see a rat and I think of you! (and I mean that in the best possible way!) I.ve gotten quite a few laughs from you!

KT, I see your video links and get a laugh! I see something in real life and wonder if I'm going to see a link posted by you to a funny video about it! (Actually, I'm often in fear that you'll find the links to my previous career of adult movie director!)(Kidding!)

I look like that chick leaning on my bike in my profile.

There was this guy riding a motorcycle on the freeway today and I saw that he had a "mohawk" on his helmet. I thought of Serendipper. :)

I find myself doing that all the time. I wonder if something's post worthy or thread worthy, then figure out what to write. I need more hobbies or something.

I usually think of people I have interacted with them on some level. Especially if they have done something that is kind or has moved me in some way.

Whenever someone has sent me a nice message or sweet words, it will linger in my head and make me smile thoughout the day and sometimes longer.

As of late, I have been thinking a lot about Jyossarian and how nice he is. :)

Haha I was thinking the same.

If something interesting happens on the bike I usually start to think of how I will post about it on BF. :D

Sometimes. Like, when I should be studying but instead go to Bikeforums, like now, I think how powerful and wise MERTON is.

Please no one take offense to this, but I don't really think of any of you outside of reading and posting on FOO. Now understand that I do not live near any of you, have never met any of you personally and really you are all virtual people to me. I did think of someone once quite a bit during the day but aparently that was not the right path. Anyway, Your all great virtual people to me.....!

"Bump Firing"
I want to try that but ammo is way too expensive for me at the moment.
