Start drinking coffee, and lots of it.
I'm about 6'5" and it makes me sad that I can't fit on some bikes anymore 
u said 'spurt'
go buy a basketball 
funny you mention, ive played about every team sport a highschool can offer, quit all of them.go buy a basketball
played basketball, was OK, but didn't like it.
played baseball, was good, but didn't lost interest
hated football
play lacrosse, was a real good goalie but cant stand the coaches at my school.
i just don't like relying on other people and having some jack off coach boss you around.
bikes are way betta.
what about wrestling ??? nothing screams tough like 2 sweaty guys rolling around in lycra...
seriously... add man wrestling to the long list of things i don t understand in the usa...
don t worry mate... just enjoy riding ya bikes... you and i (nor anyone else here) will ever be world champs... just ride and have fun... thats all that matters... hopefully you won t end up being 6' 15"s...

i wanted to be a pro surfer when i was your age... i was sponsored and i could rail with the best of them... then i woke up...
whatever happens i hope it works out for ya...
If I can ride BMX at 6'2" you can ride mtb at 6'8"
I've seen a couple of 6'8" mtb riders...It's possible, but you might need a custom frame.
Isn't Secret Squirrel like eight feet tall?
6' 7" ish....:looney: I started drinking coffee when I was 15. I was around 6'6" then.... I think I grew another 1/2 inch about 3 years later. Not saying that it was entirely the coffee....but it was sooooo delicious!!
the huge dude that the bruins drafted (defenseman from slovenia) is like 6'8" or so, and has at least five bikes. there was a cool interview w/ him in the globe last week...he likes to pre-ride the TdF stage the day before, then watch the race, and leapfrogs.
That's hardcore. A friend of mine went over to France 2 weeks after the last TdF and rode the same route. He said it was amazing and that the mountain stages kicked his ass....I said chairlifts were invented for a reason...he didn't seem too amused by that....I was.
Keep the dream, but make sure you focus on your education too. I think every kid has the desire to be a professional athlete, but the percent that actually realize that dream is very small. It's a good idea to have an education to fall back on if it doesn't work out.
I was going to be a pro baseball player when I was a kid, now I'm a frickin' System Analyst - not nearly as glamorous but it's enabled me to purchase 3 bikes in the last 16 months (that's when I started riding again) and two for my wife. I really can't complain, college was fun and my job w/ the hospital is pretty interesting.
you've still got another 2-3" before you get to Nobman's size. he goes pretty fast.
Man, if I was 6'5" Id be a pro football player making BANK! Hit the weights NOW! You still got time to be an all-pro tight end.
Its even more important if you are trying to become a professional athlete in a sport that does not pay you anything and in one where you are a senoir citizen at 34.
I wanted to be the next Ron Jeremy but my physique, better suited for voice-over work, joined forces with my wife to veto the ambition.
Yeah, what he said (where's the "stupid" smilie?)
dude, don't complain about being 6'5"+ when there are people like me who are 5'6".
for sure, and there are also some people who have no legs...
And I use to cry because I had no shoes.
i m crying right nowAnd I use to cry because I had no shoes.
