Well, it's been a while...

I ended up with something a little different then what I originally wanted, but I'm glad I got what I did.

I got a 2008 Trek 6000...and it is sweet. I got it on sale for ~500 too, which was nice.

Even though it's not a roadbike, I can still cruise on it. I average about 18MPH. I really like the front shock, it's got a locking shock, so I can turn it off for the roads, and turn it on for the trails and jumps...which I've been doing pleanty of.

By the way, I said the thing cruises...I road 31 miles today :)

Speaking of tires...I'm thinking about upgrading.

I wore down the nobbies pretty good on the last road ride.
