Well I needed to go home at lunch today to let the pups out and get my gear for my son's hockey practice tonight - so I took the Hollowpoint out and snapped some shots of her all built up. Here she is!

The non-drive side shot



From the front



From the back



that photo came out crappy.

The drive side shot



Well they aren't the greatest photos, but they'll have to do for now. I gotta get my gear and get back to work.

Cheers,

MMcG

Well I'm never going to a RM sanctioned or related event ever again.
There are no sanctioned RM events....just a bunch of members here that like to get together once in a while. *RM is not legally liable for anything that goes down at "RM events"* :p

That's sweet, Mark! Congrats. Glad you finally agonized yourself into a decision; I'm sure you'll love it :D

Sweet bike Mark! I'll see if I can hook the Case Mtn trail gnomes up with some battery-powered hair dryers so they can melt some of the snow and we can take it out for a spin...

It would be impossible for you to go again, since you never went to one in the first place. Why all the h8?
Stosh is a very sensitive young man. All the bailing and ballsack jokes are hurtful.

Well I have my balls and I don't bail so it wouldn't bother me, now if anyone found out about my problem with incontinence I would be in trouble.


Edit: Oh Crap ;)

Thanks everyone - if only I were a better photographer and if only that were a picture from a trail instead of the grounds of my apartment complex.

It is nice and warm out there though - in the high 30s and sunny today. It was hard to come back to the office.

You may want a big ring on that thing if speed is your need.
I went with a bashring on mine last year. I may go back to the big ring though because I found the bashring less usefull than I thought.

well there is a story that goes with that - you see I can't get the bashguard off even with using a chainring tool - so at some point they may have to be drilled off.

I have a brand new 44T Truvativ ring waiting in the wings courtesy of BMXman :thumb:

That sucks. Happened to me once, I just kept tightening it until the bolt broke. Probably not a good solution with a polycarbonate bashguard though.

It does kind of suck - but eventually I'll remedy it in time for Dalton - may need some new chainrings and a cassette by the time the race rolls around anyway and I've got a headstart with the new Truvativ ring. :thumb:

Thats a sweet looking ride! How many bikes do you have now? Seems like you're constantly buying/selling things and have a zillion bikes for every sort of riding imaginable. :p
