At this point, I DO NOT own ONE single bicycle :rofl:

I have a fox fork, a new CK headset, some time pedals, a carbon seatpost and a Cove Handjob frame that is "supposedly" in shipping, although BTI has yet to charge me credit card.

:stupid:

I have five bikes, a spare frame, 2 spare beat up fox forks and enough parts to buid up a few bikes. Since February I have only really ridden 2 of the 5. Although those two got a few thousand miles of use.

Feeling the lag
I have 6. Selling 3. Plan on using 1 to ride to work, 1 to ride with my son on the back and 1 to get dirty.

Don't ride anywhere near as much as I'd like or I used to.

Politicians suck azz.

What, Burly's original comment?

Yeah, I thought it was funny. I was attempting to answer in a dry-humor sort of way. I guess that it either didn't translate well over the internets, or it just wasn't funny. Probably the latter.

I have too many. Wife says I'm three over my allowed quota. Still looking at getting two new bikes as of now. Just don't know what to get rid of to make room. I only have nine hooks on my garage wall. A few bikes are living on the floor right now, and don't ask about frames or wheels.

Oh, and I ride 4-5 times a week on various bikes. I blame my lack of riding on the government,....because I work there and it takes up too much of my riding time.

I had $11k tied up in 2 bikes recently...

MizN8 says they are an investment in my health and well being. She ditched her Trek Fuel for my old Stumpjumper, but with the news that Specialized is making 2 (maybe 3) 29er for 2007, she may be upgrading soon.

u riding the Three Legged Dog at Burns Park Sun???
No, I'd like to, but family "vacations" (which are guilt driven trips to visit family............:rolleyes: ) have cut into my training time. I'd like to know what the course is at Burns Park (I road ride there almost once a week) in preparation for next year. I've ridden several trails around Burns Park but I can't figure out how the organizers would make a race out of them.........so I'm curious what the course layout is.

See all: http://www.dltmultisport.com/DLT2006/DAWG/images/MAPS/2006 MTB Race course.pdf

Three Legged Dawg MT Bike Race Course, 8.5 miles

Well marked course, you can't get lost. You'll love it. 80% single track, 20% double. This thing has it all. Some sections are tight and twisty, others are big chain ring, a couple of knurly downhill's, climbing, rocks roots and trees.... Man this thing is fun!!!!!
