    No problem. I'm the master of the short loops now-a-days. l've been riding Upper/Lower Winter Creek loop and Brown Mtn. / EP loop.

    Edit: Did I say I was 210 lbs.? Well, I lied. I think I'm closer to 245 and need to lose 55 lbs. Yeah, that's a ticket! Then I might have a chance at the big pot of gold you're going to be giving me.

    Nah, I'm only 6'6.

    Plus, I was 211 this morning, so I'm almost there.

    Plus, it's called "Manorexic."

    This thread sure got me thinking........

    Back in college ('80's), I rode my bike to school each day (30 miles total), ran cross-country, played every intramural sport I could and worked out at a gym. I looked back at my old running journal and I have a post - I'm at 165 after my first year and I've never felt better.

    Well, my knees are shot now, but I'm in this contest and I look forward to a lean 2008! I'm pretty sure I'm tipping the scale at 204.........#-o

    Hey, can the girls get in on this? After being off the bike and no running for 4 months I could use some good motivation.

    There is one picture of me in someones album that frequently shows on the home page. It's pretty rough for me to see.

    Surlygal - I am so glad you said this. There is one of my pictures that shows up once in a while. It's rough for me to see too. I am not the greatest picture person but that picture...

    Mtnbikerfred heard me complain about this he made me feel better. He said we are in a sport where vanity does not fit in.

    He also said I am going to get faster but it's going to hurt (more?).

    I know your not vain - I am not either.

    I'll also use this pic as my before pic.

    We should call this something like STR's biggest loser.
