A picture of me taken while snowmobiling on the Vatnajokull Glacier in Iceland, September 5th, 1992:

Somehow I missed this thread. I have tons of shots of me in my online album, but here are two favorites. :cool:

Wow, awesome Dave. Cross country with a dual crown fork eh? Obviously not a weight weenie, are you... :wink: I have a 6'2" riding partner that races cross country on an Ellsworth Id with a dual crown Marzocchi... everyone laughs at him at the beginning of the races. They stop laughing when he's on the top of the podium though.


I've been wanting to do that for a couple years now, something always gets in the way though. Like last year, we did a 24 hour race instead. Sometimes I question the logic behind that.

How'd you do in the race? I hear the ultimate shame for a mtn biker in that race is for a runner to finish ahead of you...

HAHA.. nope, not a weight weenie anymore. I used to be back when I raced (and won) many local races in 96-98, then I met beer and that has ulitimately slowed me down. As for the dual crown, thats a SID XL so its light, yet boasts for great travel. It was nice to absolutely RIP past people on the downhills because of the fork. That bike is my all around rig right now, I jump stuff with it, ride XC on it, do some mild north shore style stunts on it.. etc.. oh, and the forks price was right when I built up the bike!:)

If you want to register for it, it opens may 25th 2006, at 7pm est. It fills up quick though!

As for my placement.. I got 4th in my class, and finished an hour and a half ahead of what I thought. The course was super dry and FAST. It was soo much fun, talk about a natural high! It was rather odd to get passed my some runners though! 2 runners passed me at mile 27! I cound't believe it! This year was my first year racing in it, so my goal was simply to finish. Next year I plan on stepping it up a bit though.

Perhaps mods we could consider making this a sticky to go along with the introductions thread?


You know, so we can have a beauty and ugly contest, so me and ctenidae can each win one...

Don't be so harsh on yourself - I'm sure there is someone uglier than you. :lol:

I got some pics in the gallery, but I don't know how to post them here. Anyone???

See the BBCode FAQ thread, specifically the second to last section about "how to post the thumbnail from a gallery album into a post". Also see this post for info on how to properly name your album in the gallery.
