You lucky girl. Like me, you've probably been married for umpteen years and you just don't expect it anymore (though you KNOW they are thinking it). I don't think DH has told me I'm "hot" in probably 15 years. My girlfriends and I do a pretty good job of ensuring that we all know just how hot we are!

Re: the subject at hand, I always say that everything I learned about mountain biking I learned from SadieKate and Ned Overend (though I have learned a few things on my own on the trail, as you described in your original post). Ned's book is "Mountain Bike Like a Champion" or something like that...it is a GREAT book to have in your library. I just pick it up every now and then and read tidbits. Helps keep things fresh in my mind since I really don't ride all that much. I think there is a DVD of the same title; SadieKate owns it I believe.

Maybe I'll have to meet you guys in Mobe in October...that would be so tragic.
