I have a way kool mountain bike! Just because I'm old - and fat - and weak - and infirm - and demented - doesn't mean I can't go trail riding!! I just don't go very far very fast or for very long - if I do…. I have to ride into town to get a candy bar - and then sometimes I forget where I went and why.

It's a Trek -- I wanted the Fuel EX8 29 but I didn't like the 29's -- so went with a 26 but I'll be danged if I can remember the exact model. It's "high end" - but not crazy high end. Lucky for me SV is a HUGE bike town - but at the end of the season they blow stuff out and change over to ski stuff. It's got 3 big gears up front and 9 in back I think - and has hydraulic brakes - and the adjustable suspension for soft - medium and locked up… The rear suspension is cantilevered rocker set up.

I LOVE IT… But I just ride it around -- I'm not jumping logs or planning any canyon jumping on it. I do CHOOSE to go down stairs though rather than avoid them!! LOL

That's awesome Greg I miss Mtn Biking, years ago I built a couple of my own from the frame up.

Here's my last one... the frame was so so but the components were top notch in their day

HAHAHAHAHAHA --- We're going to have to set up a Mountain bike track day!!

Nice looking bike Jerry!

I haven't had a bike for years… Gwen rides her road bike (a Trek Madone 5.9) 50 miles per ride and she'd ride 6 days a week if the weather would cooperate… She's actually has TWO of them - identical - one here in Bellevue and one in Sun Valley… and then when I got my mountain bike - she bought one too - so we've been doing rides together - road and trails. We use our bikes way more than our cars when we're over in SV.

I like those pics Greg.

And the bench is a nice touch.

Does that Weld Racing shirt glow at nite? That would be a nice safety feature. Or just have it

on and off.

I have a life time free supply.

IF they stay in business "this time". HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

To those that DO NOT know me -- NO I have absolutely nothing to do with it - other than we just happen to share the same name.
