Don't worry, I can guaranty you I am no better. If you guys are going to be riding and hopping rocks like the video that cbcbd posted over in the suspension thread, bring the video cam cause I certainly can't do any of that and there is bound to be some good falls if I try

I guess you guys will be ironing out the details on this ride tomorrow.

Put it this way. I rode for about 3 years in the mid 90's and have had two one hour rides on doubletrack since then. So....yeah, I suck. Sounds like MR evil and pow are the mad steezy riders.

An AZ MTB vid? Yeah, we'll pin it all down tomorrow. Should be fun!

One of these days I am going to have to go up there to check it out.

Would be interested to see were Steve goes as I have never been biking up that end of town.

West hartford res on Farmington Ave? I used to live a half mile from there on Gin Still Lane. Spent a lot of time running and playing frisbee there in HS. Wow, Moe's having flashbacks now! Miller lite, blackberry brandy, Zeppelin and the Outlaws. What ever happened to the Outlaws? Might be time for a reunion tour.....Steezy.

I have an old Trek 930 circa 1995 and a 2005 Jamis Cross Country 1.0.

Cleaned up both bikes today. Here they are:

!

I can't speak for pow, but I would describe my riding that way. Somethings I can do well, others not as well. I just have a blast riding.

OMG, from the angle of the picture the seat on your bike looks huge

I would consider getting a slimmer saddle and some padded riding shorts. Big comfy seats just get in the way and hinder pedaling

Looks like he has a gel seat on there
