Life's way too short to be miserable at a job. Congratulations for standing up and taking the step! Another opportunity will present itself. If you are motivated, it always does. Best wishes on your future endeavors.

Nice! I went through my life change when we moved up here and out of the rat race. Go for it. Do what makes you happy if you can.

Am I correct in assuming from N8's comment you applied or are looking into working at Competitive Cyclist? If so that's great. I was there last week and heard the comment that they are needing more people to process orders.

Cool...........if you ever want to do a road ride on the NLR side of the river trail holler at me.

If you get the job at CC I bet you could take one of their demo bikes out to camp.

Yeah Camp is awesome, a pain in the butt to get signed in and all (I remember the "good old days" of just being able to drive on)...but totally awesome single track. Unfortunately I haven't been out there in almost a year.............:angry:

I have no problems... I have a DoD sticker on my vehicle and a DoD ID card... so I just flash it and drive on thru.

Yeah and you suck.

What sucks is that people (civilians) who want to play golf out there can get a year long pass and just drive on, but us MTB'ers have to get a frikkin retinal scan to get on there everytime we want to ride out there.

Good luck. Remember, a quick way to kill your love of cycling is to work in the bike biz. That's true for some, but if you're like the others, it's exactly the opposite effect. I personally can't imagine ever doing anything else, I can't get enough.
Good luck!
