a little kid in the shop almost cut off a hand with a display model of those wheels one day hahahah maybe it was the owners son who knows i dont remember

"went for a birthday ride at rockland lake today.. "

Completely zoned that part out, dont know why - sorry i'm wishing you a LATE happy birthday - hope it was great!

BTW, i know you're trying to loose weight, i'm just givving you fuel. And my "Scrawny butts" about 180 - FYI.

LOL and when did i say i could ride 20 miles, any one? I can, but havent in a long time , and you would have to pay me alot... i havent been ridding like that in a LONG time.... I got a license, remember guys

I prob logged 80 miles a day before i was a junior in HS when i moved... anyways - its all about DH etc, and taking the lifts

I'm glad i got such great responses from some of you, and those i've met know me better and ignored it

if you're going for the bling factor you should hook it up with one of those super fancy tight killington mtb shirts.... They would make you look cut.

That little kid got off pretty easy compared to this guy......There have been many times where a squirrel got off lucky after darting in front of my bike while cruising on some nice singletrack.

There's no doubt in my mind that the 6" rotors on my Kona would easily take a finger from ya.......

Pizza, congrats on the riding so far seems like you're really getting into it. I'm sure that if you keep it up you'll see some nice results by the end of the summer if not sooner.
