as you can see, things are healing up great. My foot should have skin covered by Christmas. That's all I want this year.

I'm walking without crutches and been riding my hardtail MTB on the jogging trail for therepy and minimal amounts of fun.

I'll be going big again spring 2003 and have already bought a new DH frame and will be building it up over the winter.

Take care and wear good shoes!

I bought a 2002 Santa Cruz Super 8. I'm building it for freeriding, Not DH. 24" trailpimps and 3.0's F & R, 8" Risse Champ w/ Big Daddy upper crowns, Profile SS Etc. The frame is at the powder coater getting an aftermarket color. Cant wait !

As I get closer to riding for real again, I'll find some sort of boot. Maybe something custom or prefer some kind of Mx boot that I could manage to pedal with. I don't really know yet. I do know that I'll ride out whatever situation I get myself into, not throw the bike away.

Downhil - LOL !

I just got in the Red Bull 2002 Austraila DVD. Those guys are sick and that course could have killed someone. I ordered NWD3 Freewheel Burning and it's suposed to ship today the 1st. YIPPEE!

later,

joel

I bought Joel's MRP/Profile setup from his M1...thanks Joel...sweet set...and now I can't wheelie...stupid 40T ring...LOL
Really though...sweet set up, nice and wide BB...and Joel...how did you bend the spider/ring? It took me 12 Shiner Bocks, and a claw hammer to fix it!!!
Thanks for the deal, bro...and good luck on the recovery.

I thought that if I placed a shim between the crank arm bolt and the spder that it would fit that woble. I didn't know it was bend.
Sorry dude.
