hehe...tonight we saw a couple of motorcycles with a neon light rod underneath their bikes! WBB6 mentioned that a person could put a neon light on a mountain bike with a generator and use the pedaling to power the light! haha Then you'd have a true "Ricer" mountain bike! You should see if you could do that!

I'd go if I had a bike to ride. I think that's where this weeks paycheck is going towards. Ahhh the life of living paycheck to paycheck. :banghead:

Me and some buds are going tonight to the Creek, meeting at the parking lot at the end of Elbow between 6 and 6:30. my friend drives Cougar and I'll most likely be driving my wifes car (old school grey Cavalier) as i don't like putting my bike shit in my ride. anyone is welcome to ride along with us!!:thumbsup:

c'mon down! we're not super harcore XC or anything, more like freeride shit, so basically what i'm trying to say is that we suck going up hills, but can hold our own going down them!!

yep, just keep driving and you'll go down a winding hill and end up in a parking lot.
what's your name so I know you when you get there?

Free Ride? How about some urban assault downtown sometime??? It's not too hard and lots of gawking to do in eau Claire, especially when it's hot out. ???

Rydog
06-25-2002, 01:28 PM
that's a sweet machine there Bol. Mine is a very heavily modified Norco Nitro. Only the seat, stem, and fork are original, and the fork is on it's last stanchion:rofl:
had it for about 4 years now....damn....it doesn't seem like that long!

Mongoose Pro NX7.5 w/ xtr rear, Judy T2, Kore stem & bar. My 18th b-day present =). Looking forward to the ride, I just hope I can keep up. I'm not a huge downhiller and I've only been out once this season. (now that I've established my excuse's, I'm prerared for the ride).

Correction: I'll be arriving in a Black DenaliXL

not to worry, anyone should be able to keep up tonite actually cause there will be an ultra beginner with us on his 3rd ride EVER. my bud went with him on his 2nd ride and says that he can hold his own in the speed category, however, he doesn't have too many technical skillz yet.

How about some dirtjumping at Home Food tomorrow (thursday night)?

Urban is probably not a good idea right now with the G8 and cops and shit. BTW, i saw a bunch of cops today and they are getting new Giant Warp DS2 dual suspension bikes instead of the Trek. Ugly orange tho.

"Home Food" is opposite from Home Food Inn on Macleod (behind the cheesy strip mall).


There is a giant dirt pile there.
