The Happy Thanksgiving Thread

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone on the board for all your help and encouragement. Thanks to the owners and thanks to the members who make this the best place to get mountain biking information on the net. I hope everyone gets a chance to get out and ride this weekend. The Outdoorboy family will be heading to Birmingham, AL to ride at Oak Mountain (oh yeah, and see the grandparents). Have a safe, fun weekend!

May your legs be strong, your heart filled with joy and your belly full of turkey as you shred down a trail with all your friends and family this Thanksgiving. I am thankful for all of you who share your wisdom and "comments" everyday on this forum.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! May God Bless and keep you safe on the trails this holiday season.

PS - When you sit down for Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow raise your glass in the air and in silence (don't want the family to think you are a lunatic for toasting a bike forum) send out a shout to everyone on the forum.

Thanksgiving, food good, must eat lots, but must ride lots first to make sense of doing this.

Happy thanksgiving to all you guys. I really like the idea of Thanksgiving and wish other countries would adopt it, even though it technically only applies to the US.

Anywho, it's my birthday today so I always think of Thanksgiving celebrations myself. I'll raise my glass to you all tonight.

Now go and ride!

Peace.

From anyone else, that wouldn't be so bad. But look at the guy on your avatar. How can you call me a turkey?
