hello,
I have many q's for you adventure girl...
Are you a downhiller?? That's a niiiiicccccee santacruz ya got there..It's a drool over bike..what running gear does it use?
Do you do road rides with it? (I never get it when people ride rear susp bikes on the road...they were made for downhill...mud..downhill..) Can i be annoying and ask if they're off road tires???
I like my marin...nice disc brakes..it likes mud..ahhh..mud...
*too much coffee today..excuse the nuttiness..*

Canuck,
AG has at least one road bike.
Yeah, I don't understand full suspension on the road, but sometimes they don't know there's a better option, sometimes it's for the challenge of doing things the hard way, and sometimes ..... it's the only bike they have.
My "commuter bike" is a hardtail with slicks, Tuesday on BART I had a short nice chat with a fella, my guess is he's trying to save a buck on gas although he said he rides for the fitness. He had a Murray, one of those K-mart bikes with worse-than-worthless front suspension and knobby tires.
He pointed at my tires and asked if I took the bike off road. I gave him the $0.50 tour of why higher psi + less rolling resistance = nice commute, also a brief "getta helmet" lecture of course. :cool:
