Cannondale R400 hanging out on the new bimmer. Does its job pretty well. I use it for cross training during time off between xc-indoor track- outdoor track and transitioning into the summer.

Heh. It's perfectly OK to just admit you like riding a road bike for the sake of riding a road bike.

HOLY stuff JOE!

I have a Heckler, but it aien't got that kind of travel. Jebus that bike must weigh 40 pounds. I have an 80mm Marzocchi on the front and a 4.5" Fox on the rear of my full suspension. It is definitely more of a cross country bike (even though I have never liked riding uphill). My Chameleon has another 80mm fork, I need to replace it though. I hate air shocks. I am too poking fat. Coil spring and I am happy. Nice looking bike though Joe.

42 ish :D

it sucks for uphill, and the rolling resistance on pavement SUCKS enough that i slow down while going DOWNHILL (slight grades). it was worse with 50 compounds :angry:

throw a mazocchi freeride or a nice fox 125 ont he front of that heckler and go nuts, those bikes are amazing.

i know more people ride here, post up!

Damn. That shit is huge. I would love to get another Marzocchi and just move my Atom Bomb to the single speed. I gots to find the money first and the motivation to ride more second.

I think it's time to post up new bikes if ya got 'em. I know Rod's Stoner could use some time in the spot light and I've been quietly working on my own little gal for 6 months. Bill's also searching for his next project. Anyways, half a year later and I'm proud of the results.

My children:

Smokey (Kona Smoke)

My daily beater and I stress that term. Amazing bike that's held up to pot holes, curbs, cars, and anything you find in a city :)

Ayana (Pake)

She's the younger of the two (two days old) and she's a wild one. Scary as balls when riding around the city. Haven't used the e-brake yet and hopefully will never have to depending on how many people don't feel like hitting me or vice versa.

Show 'em if you got 'em!

Why not post 'em up Chuck?

Cause they are not already hosted in my album here. I guess I am not nerdy enough to have hosted pictures of my bikes, karts, and lawnmowers on line. If you want I can dig a few out and get pictures though.

The only other pic I have online
