Mountain Biking - Post a picture of yourself

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

I'm kind of new to the boards still... but, as like most other forums I visit and post in (only one mainly), I tend to post pictures of myself quite a bit. I also just like seeing the faces behind the text. Also, you and your bike would be wicked cool. When I get mine, I'll be posting a few pictures, as soon as I can borrow a camera from one of my friends from back home.
So here's me in all my cam-***** glory.
Oh, and don't feel obligated to post a picture or anything... I have seen a few other members though already, and it's always cool to see.

Oh, I tend to be shirtless a lot while on the comp., ignore that. :/
Me at the top of our local trails system. Ladies, please, try and control yourselves. :p

No...some of my best buds don't have pics of me. Not a big fan of cameras...Ironically you look like one of my buds from back in Ontario.

SNOW! its like 90 here in texas!
It was like 75 degrees in the lowlands where we started. I never expected to hit snow that day, as you can see from my clothes. The temp up there was about 50 degrees, so the snow is melting, finally :beer:

Haha, cool pics guys. That trail looks amazing. I should post some pictures of a local trail here... there's a car that rolled over the edge and fell into the river. Or it could have been done on purpose, it's kind of a movie set thing as well.

Ranger,
You're Pee Wee?
Wow!
Did you know he grew up where I currently live? Yup, he got arrested about 2 miles from my home. I've even been inside the house which he grew up. He went to my same High School.
I'm so proud to have that as a talking point about my hometown! NOT!

Maybe if Norris would have been the Superintendant back then Ol' Pee Wee would have taken a different route. :D

I don't have a lot of pictures of me. I'm usually behind the camera. I've got a ton of my wife and son.

[QUOTE=dirtbikedude]Hey Shannon-UT, I am going to be up in Ogden in June. Do you know of any good riding there?
I haven't actually ridden in the Ogden area, though we had 2 planned trips that were cancelled due to bad weather. We were going to try the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and Antelope Island in March (an actual island in the Great Salt Lake with herds of buffalo on it!).
I can however refer you to this really good website:
www.utahmountainbiking.com
Find the Logan/Ogden list on the left hand side. I'm in the Logan area, so you can disregard these trails:
Jardine Juniper
Logan River trail
Old Ephraim's Grave
Rick's Canyon
Steel Hollow
Have fun, it looks like there's some really beautiful rides! I should get down there and try them.

You don't look like you need to loose 22 pounds.

Geez Shannon some muscular thighs you've got there.
Very nice indeed !!

Hey thanks, ronyex! I was pleasantly surprised when we got the pictures back. Pa-POW!
I actually lost ~20 pounds that year from biking, thanks to my new bike (old bike was worn out).

thanks but i didn't really try to loose the weight... i realized one day that my diet left alot to be desired, so i began to eat healthy and a ride 1-2 times a week more and i lost 22 pounds. i just wanted to be healthier because heart disease and diabetes runs in my family

That is exactly how it started for me. I bought a mountain bike, started to ride it 2-3 times a week, soon enough, I dropped from 285-290 down to 205 and now I am a daily rider. There is cancer and heart disease, as well as diabetes in my family, so i figured the healthier I got, the better the chances are that I would be able to avoid those problems.

well that's the same thing that happened to me! i didn't ride as much on my old bike because it honestly gave me neck, shoulder and hand pains. Got a new better mtn. bike and rode over 1,000 miles in one season, and i ate quite a bit! maybe the weight was meant to come off, i'm glad mine did!
good for you rockstar and trekkie

Don't forget the front brake cable Klein, Super sweet bike- You took the decals off? nice.

Waiting for the adapter for the front brake :o
The specialized letters are outlined, I was thinking about painting them in, no decals were taken off. I just set up the rear xt brake yesterday and it works really well, thats after I did my blow torch technique to the pads and rotor.
