Hello all,
After an interesting first day on BF, feeling like I almost got my butt booted after resurrecting 3 long dead threads, I'm back to redeem myself. Doug here, from Falls Church, VA. Been biking seriously since 1992, mostly MTB until this year when I picked up road bike as well (as a reward for 3 months of working overtime on a death march project).
I know I'll take some heat for it :-), but I'm into old ProFlex bikes...My main ride is a '98 K2/Proflex 4000, which has been completely redone (all XTR M952, ball bearing pivot conversion, carbon Crosslink, Risses, etc.) and hopefully, someday, will get new paint. See pic.
Other rides include the '03 or so Intense Tracer, red Proflex 856 lightweight build/guest ride, silver 856 commuter, my wife's silver 856. Road bike is a Cervelo S2.
Happy to be here and will be giving more, required deference to the moderators from day 2 on. Long live Jombi.
