Someone just needs to say something like:

Even though I have never ridden a Specialized Hardrock, I think every new mountain biker should ride one because it forces you to become a better rider than a more expensive, full suspension bike. I also think that Crank Brothers Egg Beaters are the best clipless pedals even though I only ride platforms.

YEAH! And when you finally move to a FS bike, it'll actually be LIGHTER! (My hardrock weights in at like 35ish lbs....)

Of course I wrote 'aboot', I'm Canadian, eh.

I've heard 'aboot' used before....in the South Park movie.

But if you ask 66, girlscout, and gastro, they will likely claim I say 'aboot'.

Gastro is a hillbillie-wannabe. That part of Upstate New York is bordering on Ontario and I bet you he sounds just like a guy from Hamilton.

Aussies are definitely great. Was there drinking? I can't understand the Aussies once there's booze in them.
