Still sleeping,scratching yourself,watching cartoons,attending a comic convention.

I will be competing in my first mountain bike race of the year.

It will be very special because it will be the first time my 6 and 4 year old will see me race.

Have fun in what ever you do today because I know I will :cloud9:

Nice. Mountain biking is fun. Weather has just started to get nice and I have done a few trips on the paths in the city.

 

What type of bike you got?

 

This is my bike.

 

Norco Sasquatch hardtail with some changes I made.

- Rocky Mountain aluminum seat post (wanted an Axiom but the one I bought was wrong post size.)

- WTB PUREV seat

- Axiom AG racing handle bars

- Vistalite 5/10w dual light setup

- Shimano Deore LX brakes

- Blackspike Ring God

- Alfa Bite Tires (almost time to get a new pair of tires)

 

Everything else is stock and wouldn't mind changing the shocks since they suck. Eventually I want to get a new hardtail bike that has mechanical disc brakes but want to be able to transfer some of the parts I have now. Esepcially the handlebars since they work so well with setting up light systems on.

Damn I had fun.

After reviewing the final results on the web site I finished:

 

19th out of 81 riders in my age group.

77th out of 423 riders overall.

Still too damn slow :censored::pullhair:

I knew I shouldn't have been reading a comic book while I was riding. :roflmao:
