We introduced ourselves and he said "well, I'll probably wind up riding with you this summer!".
summary: I love bikes.
Thats Jim. And more accurately it was "when Keith rode a hardtail...I rode full sus and Keith got his a$$ handed to him on every ride". It was riding with him and another full susser all the time and that made me want to go full sus. While my hardtail was a good 2 1/2 lbs lighter, I ride faster and longer on the full sus.
