Newbie up north!

Hey guys, just joined.

About me, I'm 15, I live in the absolute middle of nowhere. This makes for some real good mountain riding My life is pretty much centered around cars. Always loved them always will. There's also the ATV's and snowmobiles. When I'm not in the fuel burning mood I'm into photography and, of course, mountian biking. I don't know a whole lot about bikes so hopefully y'all are gonna teach my somethin'

A few years ago my dad and I both got our (almost) twin '03 Kona Hahanna's. Biggest difference between them is that mine actually gets used, hehe. It's pretty much bone stock right now. Outside handgrips and pedals, all original. Hehe, yes a tire and brake pads are on the way. Once I get a car and some money I'll begin turning the bike into a project. Can't wait for that!

Here's the most recent picture of the ride, though I have made a change or two since then:


So yeah, that's me.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

If you took the mountain bike out of the photo the scene looks just like something Winslow Homer would have painted (although he probably would have had a canoe in the water ) .
