CraigX3-geek, you need to go outside, get some fresh air, ur gettin pudgy! Run down to Walmart and get yourself a nice bike, why don't ya!
Mein Gott, dude, no way! The Schwinns at El Marte de K are much better.

Fortunately, ours is across the street from Los Mundiale de Wally.

Wind-I cowardly took 8 days off from riding. Not only the wind, but it was in the 30's. I am filled with SHAME!

raiyn is wearing an orange jumpsuit and picking up litter beside a freeway in south Florida somewhere (I think he killed a guy who insisted on using rubbing alcohol on his brake discs, instead of DENATURED alcohol like HE TOLD HIM); gastro bought a big KTM and took a year off to train for the Mexican 1000; and maelstrom got married and then got talked into joining the Lithuanian Bobsled Team for the 2010 Winter Olympics, since they were going to be just down the road from him anyway. I've bribed him into brief cameo appearances with the promise of free beers any time I get up there .

I lost my dump truck avatar in one of the many 'upgrades' that happened along the way and I miss it. Would you happen to have it in your stalker files?

In the ebb and flow of life, maybe mountain biker types are focused elsewhere. Its winter and some have had to hang up the helmet waiting for better weather.

I also think that MTBers tend to be more "lone wolf" kinda people. If we need something, we show up. If all is good, we look around elsewhere. We don't need to compare ourselves to pCad, DrPete or UMD. Our people are good.

That was how I started to read it, too. I thought "Good for you! Not ashamed to let the world know that you're tra.... Oh wait. That's not what that says...."
