    hey guys/gals :wave:i'm sean 21 years old, got into riding about a year back (rode bmx for years as a kid), anywho rode a lower end Trek Ht for a while (read:turnbull canyon 3x a week) parts started failing so i picked this up i haven't seen any other i-drive's around (good or bad? :-k) feel free to say hi if you come across me on the trails

    think i got a good deal on it :?: i ride turnbull about twice a week (i live 2 blocks from the fire road entrance) and also the fullerton loop at least once a week, recently rode aliso woods/rock it/top of the world?/meadows.. that was a hell of a ride, bike's stock aside from chainstay protectors/cat eye and grips, recently went clipless and i'm enjoying it a lot so far.. ok this is turning into more of a ramble than anything:lol:
    thought i'd register and talk to some local people, maybe ride with some of you eventually (do i have to get jumped in? #-o) think that's about it, also have a "space" if any of you are on there www.myspace.com/girthbrooks86 8-[

    :welcome::wave: Hopefully I'll run into you sometime on the trail. I'll start riding there again after work soon. We should definitely hook up some time. I live in Downey and work in Monterey Park.

    Yes, but I hear that would cost you $450 in Vegas and it only hurts for a little while ;) or you could just post a RR (ride report) from your next ride and we could forego the 'jumping' unless your into that sort of thing.

    On a more serious note: :welcome:

    I see how it is. I guess this must be a 562 kind of thing or click as I don't ever recall getting a "Welcome to the family" reply from you. I get it. Don't you worry about it, pal! ;)

    Sean,

    If you know what's good for you, you'd better just delete the PM without reading it. Nothing good will ever come from reading it or anything from Dino! ;) 8-[ :lol:

    One more thing. Never ask him about his opinions on Iron Horse bikes. Consider yourself warned. You can thank me later.
