So frank, what's the call, I've got Andrew pretty much dialed in, he's loving the new heavier spring so he's amped to go out, it sounds like PC on Sunday might be where it's at, I could just bring the trail;er and pick you up, I've got room for 4 plus me and more bikes than that...hey, I just realized you're in Seattle I think...well, let me know, I'm itching to see PC, and Chris talking all about it is making me even more antsy...e-mail/call/pm whatever me, and we'll get our plan squared away...
yeah, I'm thinkin I'd love to do both days...
only one offer to help me move EXTREME boxes! I see how it is, as long as I have known all of you and nothing........i hired a mover anyway!
have fun at PC, i asked my woman about going and it did not put a smile on her face. I guess leaving a pregnant woman to do the last of the moving while i ride my bike is probably not a good idea! To be honest she REALLY found it to not be funny, I guess women just see things differently.
All I can say is next weekend I am IN it TO WIN IT!

Dude, you got your priorities all wrong. How can you ever expect to clear that road gap if you've got a woman at home dragging you down? Who wears the pants in your family? Time to assert your manhood and lay down the law! You want to go riding on Sunday, and, dammit, you're going to go riding! Tell her, too, that the house better be unpacked when you get home.
Uh, I'm totally kidding....
I called her up as I was reading that and told her what you said. then I scrolled down and saw you were kidding. Now I am single but at least I can ride........
So I guess we will see you at PC on sunday. If you need a place to stay well I don't have one
but I am sure you can stay up at leadbetter I know were this fort is just beware of the crazy paintballers.
Now we all know that your woman wears the pants in the family. You are whiped and whiped good.
She proably locked your bike up and threw away the key didn't she?

Gunslingger can you say 
odd creatures, those women are...
Yeah, guess what? I can't ride this weekend at all. The army decided that I need to be at my unit on sunday after all so I'm screwed. I'll probably just ride today at discovery for a little bit, and wait till next week to go somewhere else.
Everyone have fun at PC! (wish I could go)

Glad I could help! Don't worry, there are tons of single women who ride here in Hood River - yeah, right!!
I do feel a bit guilty, and therefore obligated to help. You can live in the small shed I have in the backyard. I've got a 5-gallon bucket you can use as a toilet. At least you'll be close to the trailhead.
We should have your name changed from Gunslingger to Pu$$ywhipped.
I've got to do the "Solve IT" clean-up for my Haz-mat class on Saturday till like 4pm, but I was thinking of trucking up on Sat-morning just to chill and maybe pedal around and meet some people...are you going? I really wanna go up cause it seems like there are a ton of people up there chillin, might be a good time, I think I will try'n make it up there for the day Sunday...
and it aint as it seems. do i have to start quotin' 50 cent or Biggy Smalls to prove who i am......
OK new topic, what is better mechanical or hydraulic discs? Also if money was no object would you still wear cotton boxers?

I'm not riding this weekend. But I am heading to Santiam to scope out my race rig for this year. Hell or high water I am racing at least twice this year. I wanted to race last year, but lack of funds put a hault to that quick.
Has anyone checked out Falls City yet? There are some wicked trails there now with lots more on the make. Check out www.santiambicycle.com message board to see build times and trail updates.

"How you livin' Biggy Smalls?"
No changing the subject! However, to answer your question, I would buy hydraulic boxers if I could afford it.
cool, well maybe I'll call you on SUnday if we make it up...so Sat. @ Ledbetters? ANdrew is claiming to show, but you've seen how that works...O well, I think he'll come out now, he's dying to get the Stinky on some good dirt...
yeah, I can bet he's comming, hey, I'm looking at a new fork since I'm probably gonna sell my crappy Z1wedge off on my old HT...so which one would you choose? 2004 Z1 Dropoff II or 2004 DJ3...those are my options, no 20mm for me BOO_HOO, but thesea re infinately better forks than my current set-up, I can get what I consider to be as good a deal as any at universal, (315 for the Z1, 269 for the DJ and I'd need the 130mmtravel kit) any suggestions?
I had one on my last bike. The fork is solid and you can pump up the air in it and it will be really stiff. It is not good for multiple bumps though, kinda like a one hitter! I liked it though for everything beside riding fast down rocky trails.
Chris I happen to be livin in manshions and benz's, given ends to my friends, and it feels stupendous......other times I am actualy Gucci down to the socks, though i sometimes feel like ni--as are trying to stick me for my paper.......andyhow i hope you get the idea
by the way as far as political correctness was it wrong for me to quote that phrase?

Damnit I am so up in the air...Yeah Frank I took it to NSMB, it's on the Gear board right now...my question is do I need the steel Stantions or will the Z1 alloy ones be strong enough...I realize nobody but me can truly answer that, but man I need some help...
OK- the Z1 will probably have better dampning I'm guessing, and IMO, the all black is just bonus pimp points
but- the DJ has steel Stantions/sliders and will most likely be tougher but sacrifice high speed sensetivity...
I'm thinking that if my wedge has survived the first 6months of me getting used to the 4x4 that the Z1 DOII will be pretty good to go, and certianly burlier than the wedge...any thoughts guys...
dammit, I just don't know what to do with myself...I don't know what to do with my self DUH NUH!!! (sorry thought I'd get in on the music thing with ya Jason)

. fun stuff.so there seems to be plenty of sunday activity. anyone riding on saturday? if not, i think i'm just going to cruise down the discovery trail, peering off into the woods for this extra stuff...
"Chris I happen to be livin in manshions and benz's, given ends to my friends, and it feels stupendous"
So how does someone who cant spell "Mansions" end up living in one?
And Dave your on your own with the fork man... I couldnt tell ya which to blow your $$ on.
