Ride Report Yet ANOTHER act of (STR) kindness......

Dino, once again, you made us all proud. :clap:

Awesome to see jsd on the new bike. Kudos to everyone that took part in this.
 
atta boy, dino!

sorry genn and i got there too late (rough day on saturday). quinn was supposed to stall you, but she's just too shy...

Dino, as always, you keep the "community" aspect alive and well on STR! Kudos to you for doing this for JSD!


Doug's "rough day" consisted of soloing the 12 Hr at Temecula and completing 5 laps of the course, I went out for the Century version of the Tour de Foothills...a half hour stall would've been alot for anyone to manage! :wave:
 
Dino - great job man. Thank you for all you do for the STR community; thank you for allowing me to be a part of this; thanks for making it ok for us rugged mountain bikers to shed a tear. Glad to know you and call you my friend.

JSD - enjoy - may this gift bring you many miles of happiness and peace.
 
JSD Congrats on your new bike. The bike is awesome and the blue cables make it cool. It makes us all so happy that you have a new ride.

The Sunday and Thursday night crew are amazing. Dino for.those of us that call you friend or homie its like cool in a "blessing" kinda of way.
 
So I showed up to the Loop Sunday morning solely to take video/pics of a grown man crying. I start taking video of JSD, and while he's visibly moved, he hasn't broken down in tears...So imagine my surprise when I hear some sniffling to my left and as I look over, I see....

DINO?

I had the camera on the wrong person! :lol:

JSD - congrats on a great new bike!

STR Community - it's really touching to see the community come together to pitch in during a really tough economic time for all. Yay to STR for the generosity!

Dino, Dune66 and Fatguy1 - props for coming up with the idea!

Dino again - I witnessed all the endless PMs, emails and phone calls that it took to make this happen. It was very kind. :clap:
 
I love good news and a positive story. There are far too many stories like this these days. Thanks for sharing, this really made my day!
 
Wow, what a great community. I'm so proud to be a part of it. All the great people I've met and continue to meet is unbelieveable. You guys/gals are the best!
 
NEWS FLASH: :wave:

A "friend" offered to fund JSD's first Over The Hump race of 2011... :clap:

I woke up this morning still in shock, did that really happen? WOW that was simply amazing. You all are great, thank you all for your generousity and kindness. Dino if I didn't tell you yesterday, Thank you. I don't know how you managed to pull it off. I was totally surprised by all of this. Thank you to Dune66 & Fatguy!; totally awesome. Thanks to all of you people of STR community. The bike is great! Funny thing I was thinking of demo the bike at the Giant demo.

No thank you, for being a great person! Wish I was there.... Dino great job! As a newer member, I'm just happy to be a part of the STR family...

PS...

Sorry I never got back to you about the rear triangle 8-[
 
Can someone pass me a tissue please? I can't stop crying. Well done Dino and the rest of you for making it happen. This kind of giving back is what it's all about. I've said it before, and I'll say it over and over again; Mountain bikers are some of the coolest people I know.
