How's the Z150 treating you??? Oh wait - you can't ride your bike can you???

:D

If you want some decent, fairly cheap backup wheels, the Supergo Launch FR Performance has for $180 are pretty decent.

Will your wheel be fixed by then?

:rofl:
It better damned well be fixed soon, or Im going to be one slow bastard at pisgah...

Well, not really. Im quite the physical anomoly actually. I've eaten 2lbs of suger in the last 3 weeks just in tea and coffee alone, and am still losing winter weight. I went from 202 at around the new year to 186ish now... could be cancer...

I didn't take many pics in Tahoe, so I understand. It's nice to have pics, but it's more fun to ride. We rarely take ride pics.

Freaking perfect, and only 2 beans!

Edit:

2 beans for a fork that snaps a lot. Screw that.

Back to the DO II...

On the mtbr review page, 2 people say they broke. One said that braking broke the arch, which seems stupid to me. He was Canadian too. The Aussie said it broke on a drop. Doesn't say what drop. I never buy into that. He weighed 120 and broke a fork on a drop. Right. :rofl:
