Now that I've ridden the 29er a bit and realize how much I prefer it, DH and I discussed getting me my own bike soon! The Turner Sultan was been mentioned...but I think that's just a dream I originally was OK with just riding the demo when available because, well, I wasn't sure if I even liked it and I did love my old hardtail. Things have changed now!

Jeni-
How did you like the trails? Pontiac Lake and Highland are both pretty technical but fun trails! If I had known you were in town, you could have came to our race season kickoff party! It was last Saturday and a local brewery that's sponsoring us, cheap local brews, lots of people and lots of bikes...tons of fun!
I believe we're heading to interbike on Monday, doing the dirt demo on Tues, the show on wed and thur and heading home on Fri. I think that's the plan right now, but it isn't set in stone. We'll definitely have to meet up! Are you going to the dirt demo?
