did I miss something T? what new bike? did you end up getting a road bike or did you end up getting a 575?
LOL! I didn't get either...I bought a Yeti AS-X for DHing :love: I just went out and ripped it around my yard a bit and it's AWESOME!!! It fits me SO well (as compared to my Ironhorse that was a bit too big). I am looking forward to hitting Diablo as soon as possible! I actually believe I have decided upon the road bike (for training purposes) and will hang onto my jekyll for XC & racing purposes (for now atleast).

But that would interfere with my career dream of becoming a highly successful cage fighter. Or an undercover BBQ restaurant reviewer.
Get your ass back down here so we can roll down to Lockhart and review some Q.
