I remember years ago riding outside San Diego with Heidi, Mr Heidi, and -BB-. I was not used to riding in the dry hot desert and didn't pack enough water. Halfway through the ride, -BB- handed me an extra ice cold Gatorade he had carried. Man, that saved me and it was great. Christ, that had to be 18-20 years ago. It's amazing how long some of us have been on here.
moving to socal and learning to ride in those conditions was eye opening for me. also a ton of fun

Who would have thought we would have been on here long enough to see so many usernames pass away.
It often strikes me that I first joined the monkey in high school and have been on here through numerous girlfriends, college, moves, marriage, and a kid. Literally half my life has been on this website. Wild.

Call me an optomist but I'm betting he's organizing Qanon conferences, and working as an exclusive agent for infowars syndication and distribution.
N8, yes. $tinkle, I think, at least had some intellectual rigor.

Maybe I wasn't clear. I bet $tinkle is organizing Qanon conferences that N8 is buying tickets for, and syndicating infowars subscriptions that N8 is paying for.

$tinkle is a cynical entrepreneur, don't forget. he has money in his username and knows the worlds he can freely move around in

I haven't met any of you pricks but you best believe you're all getting the better end of that deal. I'm coming to see Partsy this summer though so if you hear of two Australians arrested in Idaho for yelling at mailboxes, abusing traffic lights and fighting imaginary cowboys that'll be us.

Partsy dropped off the Earth for me.

He's actually still in my will because I sketched one out before going to Iraq and I told my wife to give him all my bike stuff to keep or distribute since he was the closest bike person in California.

Idaho?? Tracks tho...you guys should come down to Salvador.

I joined in 04 because the DJ forums were really active. I was trying to pimp out Oscar's dirt jump frames and get him some bizness.

At any rate I put a long seat post on my dirt jump bike and met Skookum and some other peeps up in the woods above Cle Elum. I pushed my DJ up to the top of Jolly Mtn and had a great time. My intro to fuckin mountain biking. Skookum is a radical dude.

Wasn't Partsy in Grass Valley, CA in the not-too-distant past? How the hell did he end up in Ida Ho'?

Ah, I forgot Skookum! Rode with him. Splinted his leg with a stick even.

I've met many monkeys and I intend to meet many more.

Fellow poo flingers.
I think I have solved the mystery of the missing monkeys.
It's always the quiet ones eh!

There I was like everyone else with my money on Kidwoo, Graphics, Mr Clean or Westy......
But no in the end it was Jozz in the pizza parlor basement with "things". :clue: :busted: :disgust1:

I don't even think I could make a list, not because it's been an outrageous amount, but just because I can't remember back the whole 20 years :monkey:

I'm still annoyed that I went all the way to Lima only for @ALEXIS_DH to be out of town.

When I joined I'm pretty sure I was making $11/hour under the table as a roofer.

When I was a junior in college I would have been making about $10.50 an hour at the IT help desk in the animal research + sociology building on campus.

Forgot about @Red Rabbit

Rode with him at the Air Force Academy. Young kid, had some growing up to do, but seemed nice enough.

Lest we forget, the Yin to my Yang, @$tinkle

Not sure what happened to either of those guys, but I've said previously I think $tinkle must have passed.

Edit: a quick look shows both those guys last logged in 2014. Maybe the Airforce sent them UFO hunting? :tinfoil:

Met Red Rabbit and a few others for the brief DH scene at Wintergreen. He fell into the non-psychopath category.
