Default Hi! I'm Young, Single, and Rigid in San Diego!
Okay, maybe I'm not so young (in my thirties, grown & sexy), not so single (married but ride a single speed), and somewhat rigid (I ride a '08 Monocog with no suspension). I've been lurking for awhile and thought it's finally a good time to introduce myself to the STR community. I dig the vibe on this board! My local rides are Mission Trails, LPQ, and San Clemente/Tri Canyon. Looking forward to going on some rides with y'all!

Here are some pics of my ride:

ok, I'll say it, who can pass up a header like that?

Welcome. Something tells me you'll fit right in .

Wow, 4 comments in the span of 5 minutes at 9:10pm on a Friday night. You guys must be MTB-obsessed nerds or married (eg, stuck at home) like me - or both!

El Dood - Love the H-Bar. The sweep makes climbing easier and I dig the versatility.

Love the Brooks, saddle soreness is no longer a problem. I was skeptical at first given the firmness/stiffness of it, but that's the reason it works (if that makes sense).

I dig those bars and that saddle is so pimp! I've been thinking about those bars myself. We need to go ride so I can try out your bike and see if I like em. I really just need another excuse to buy more crap for my rigid ss.
