    Some of us look at riding as a way to be able to eat pizza and drink beer and balance it out somewhat.

    I had McDonalds for breakfast as well, neener neener neener.

    You might want to go with 22oz-ers for the wheel build. Once you start a build, you don't want to walk away from it until it's laced IMO -- unless you have someone bringing beer to you...

    Sorry Carl!
    Here is my DH Rig!

    I am really liking the Manitou fork, I picked up the 100mm- on the bike- and the 80mm- on the wall- so the Mamasita might sport the fork also.

    1x9 SRAM XO Short Cage Rear Der, very nice!

    I have a pair of the new white Juicy Ultimates but was debating...too much white I think so I picked up some white Straitline Brake levers!

    I am a BIG NY Jets fan so I had to go with the green and white look, turned out pretty cool!

    How do you like the 1x9 set up? Does it give you enough gearing?

    :lol:Thanks Duan but thats just one of the 3 walls and not including the ceiling- thats where wheels and tires hang!

    I'm a big fan of the SS so I really like the 1x9 gearing, its makes the B's at Oaks a breeze!
    I did drop the chain in mid-flight during my preride at Hurkey Creek last week, I think it was a combination of the things so I don't think it is the 1x9's fault:?:
