    Early Christmas Present

    Nice fork. I had one of the original UD 150s in 98/99 and the fork was great. I'm sure they have come a long way. I am waiting on a WB 150mm Loop to show up currently. Pretty stoked about that fork.

    My new Trek Session is here!

    Sick build bro! I love everything about it. I understand the Spidey thing. I wish my kids invested more energy into my racing than the usual "uhh, you're going racing AGAIN?"

    Yet another taiwanese copy bike

    The Macmahone proto is called the Killmeister. Due out in May 2012 according to the company. I'd ride it if they gave me one. :D

    GES Highland Oct 15-16 Points for 2012 Series

    Sorry Dan for my misinformed post....originally its was stated to be a double points but I see that has been changed. While I still disagree on the points applied to 2012, I'll still be there to support GES Friday!! :weee:

    GES Highland Oct 15-16 Points for 2012 Series

    While I disagree with this plan due to the above mentioned reasons, its not proper to make this double points. For those who shut their season down in accordance with the 2011 schedule have a valid concern. I will be there, because I really want to ride Highland. Its more an end of season...

    Stolen Bikes -San Francisco

    Uh...because that's where most normal people keep their bikes. Duh?? :rofl: Just because the bike is in the garage or the house doesn't make it unstealable. One fix....security systems. My garage is tied into my home security system. It will cost less than that beautiful fork! If you're...

    Best way to warm up suspension before a race run?

    Well, I'm done with this conversation. I'm not here to nit-pick. I'm here to offer my two cents with as little as possible time investment. My answer to your final question has two parts: 1- get rid of that Rock Shox garbage 2- if choosing to stick with RS, learn how to maintain the...

    Best way to warm up suspension before a race run?

    Noted and true also. But that's not considered "normal conditions". My fork and shock work the same all of the time unless I do something stupid like put it upside down and let all the oil drain down or subject it to cold temps. The OP didn't state temps so that leaves this as general...

    Best way to warm up suspension before a race run?

    If your suspension is healthy it doesn't need a "warm-up" or more specifically cycling of the fluids thru the vavling. You should study up on suspension. They aren't like car racing tires. They work the same all the time except in possibly freezing conditions. I think this "better feel" is...

    Arthritis Foundation Race at the Windham WC

    I'm in for sure because I, like Lars, have suffered with Rhuematoid Arthritis. When I left DH racing in 99 due to a head injury I was suddenly tripped up again with a diagnosis of RA in 2005. After being prescribed some excellent meds I slowly progressed back to a normal life and regained...

    What's the most powerful / snappy brake you've used?

    Hands down best brake I have used is my new Hayes Prime Pros! Effortless, completely adjustable, and light. I thought the Hayes Stoker Aces were the sh*t until I grabbed a handful of Primes. Equally as strong with less effort in a twin caliper design.

    Clipless or Platform Pedals

    I've been clipped in all disciplines since 1990. Been DH racing clipped in for 15 years and won't change. At 43, its what I've become accustomed to and feel best on. (even after trying flats for curiousity sake) I like the ability to have complete control of the rear end and see no need for...
