Good Idea to go riding with the Rage people! Are we going to drive over there or ride? Where/when do you guys want to meet?
If you really feel that you need to run the post with more than 5-6 inches (and thats pushing it) exposed (making a 19 inch frame) I suggest that you look into selling your Imperial and picking up something with a longer seat tube.
No worries, I don't think anyone of us went tonight.Originally posted by Barbaton
I hope someone sees this before you head out...
don't think I can ride tonight. have fun anyway.

Sounds like fun, no?

Jury duty sounds as if it was a blast, Ari. They dismiss you for being too liberal?Originally posted by WTGPhoben
I just had a short morning ride, but I think Ari would feel left out if we didn't ride tonight too. Who's in?
BTW, TOSHI. Dave has a hook at work for Iron HOrse if you're into that.
until then... if we can find a wheel, my #2 bike is always available for rental
For the uninformed, what is a Hollowpoint?For xc,
I'll save up a bit, and get one of those newfangled Hollowpoints. I hear the
guy who designed the 2003s is pretty sharp. ;-)
hehe...one of my roomates did the same thing this year.Originally posted by Barbaton
so guess who just found his week lost cellphone in his bed.
We hit up Government Center, but took quite the windy route to get there.Originally posted by Barbaton
where'd you guys go?
That pit area where the bmxers used to hang out is fenced off, but most of the fun stuff (like the wallrides) is still accessible. I'm not sure if we're supposed to be there, but that's another issue entirely. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that both Ari and Keith were getting some solid wallrides in.Originally posted by Barbaton
oh. I thought they weren't letting people ride there anymore.
I agree. my legs are sort of hurting right now. But it was most definitely a quality ride. Lots of fun, and a good workout.Originally posted by WTGPhoben
I think ari ad I might want the day off tomorrow, with the urban on fri and the trail on sat, sun might need to involve a lot of TV.
Coolness. My shoulder feels kind of funky, if anyone cares.Originally posted by Quadari

Who's playing? What's this "world cup" deal anyways?World cup match in 6.5 hours! woohoo. who do you guys think will win.
You could become an all Klein man!
Yeah, I tried that, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work with the type of fonts that we were dealing with.
Ari: did you end up downloading this to convert your fonts? I haven't tried it yet, but it's shareware... http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Way/4789/TTConverter15.hqx (a few minutes later) Ok, it seems to work, too. What could be better?
I'm leery of that White Bros fork, tho. Marzocchi, please.Originally posted by Quadari

No...they weren't. They were True Type, type 1 fonts, I believe. It was actually two different files the made up the PC font that converted into two different mac files. They had funny extensions that I can't remember right now.Originally posted by Toshi
Your fonts weren't .ttp files?
Two of the bikes on my list above have been sold already. At least they were the sketchy ones (Klein with the WB, ok, the Yeti wasn't sketchy). Some guy selling his girlfriend's M2 already got booted off the list since he was very reluctant to send a pic because it would be a waste of his time if I ended up buying a different bike. With that attitude...Originally posted by Toshi
I wanted the Fatboy Slim BLTC font that a13x uses in his pictures (which he hasn't posted for a while -- I'll post a sample
Gotta say the best deal in that lot is the DBR. It's got a sweet price and minus the rims, It's stacked. Besides, after having bombers for so long you'll cry yourself to sleep at night with a manitou. (the ti bike and the GT are also cool, but pricey... and who would want to beat up a collectors item?)For fun, I've decided to start combing the mtbr classifieds. If any of you are bored, please check out these ads and tell me what you think.
I am definitely leaning towards the DBR as well. The guy was even the nicest in response to my call for pictures; or at least he was tied with the gold S-works guy. I just need my fork buyer to get the money and pay me and then all will be well.Originally posted by WTGPhoben

I guess the breezer is ok too if you like grip shift, but I can't stand the things.

Toshi-
What's up here? You're going to have all hardtail bikes. Keith is gonna be the only one with a dualie. As he says, "Me with a dualie? Who ever thought it would happen?"
yeah, and someday I'll do big drops... .... .... HAHAHAHAHAHA.Maybe I'll be able to climb hills
Hey, use the Quote button at the bottom right (as opposed to the one in the Reply to Post page). Anyways, we coerced you into dirt jumping, so nothing's impossible.Originally posted by WTGPhoben
