I can't do anything today, due to being at work. But tomorrow my friend Nate and I plan on going to Greenbush to tear it up for a couple hours...
Cool bike, too. I ride an older Voodoo Bizango with all newer XTR and etc.

Let me know if you are interested in meeting up with us or something...

Well, starting next week, I will have Tuesdays off instead off Fridays. I would like to hit the trails near Whitewater yet this year, too.

That would work for me, I'll bring both bikes as I haven't ridden that side of town and am new to the single speed game. I have a Kona Caldera in the corral as well.

The 69er had a sticker of 1989.99, but Wheel and Sprocket has a half off sale going on 15 bikes and this was one of them.

A few hundred bucks will buy you a bike that you ride a few times a year. You don't buy a fast car for a few hundred bucks, it goes the same with bikes.

I have friends that have well over three times what I have invested in a single bike, you get what you pay for just like any sport.
