Old stodge in a new realm

[ApexMan]

Hi. Been riding since I was a kid, got into the mtn. bike thing back in '82, '83. My friends and I use to drop down from Mt Wilson with coaster brakes, I came from the motocross background so I used a bmx/cruiser set up for years. I waited till 2001 before I got my first suspension bike, my old ridgid and I were finally getting beat, and beat up on the trials. I had waitied till manufacturers had figured out suspension concepts and shock and fork builders made stuff that didn't break and needed little maintenance before plunking down cash. So now I'm fully bought in and am enjoying the new technology!

I'm always looking at expanding my network of riders, a friend has introduced me to this site so I hope to make some lasting contacts and share and add to this fun sport.
