    I will chime in here, since I am the one buying the bike

    Just talked to Scotte and turns out that his kid has come in second in nationals a couple of times... hoping for first one of these years! Sounds like I am not worthy of riding his bike :-) He is one lucky kid to have such an awesome bike and such a supportive Dad!

    I will post photos once i have the bike and have taken it on its first test ride. (I am pretty excited!)

    Ellen -- congratulations! I am so glad to see someone buying this beautiful and wonderful bike. We are now bike twins - same size, even. I rode mine this very day. This one is a beaut -- prettier and newer than mine (don't tell her -- I still love her!)

    Ellen now I can be jealous of you!! Seriously my parents probably spent $800/yr on bowling balls when I was bowling. Flew or drove me all over to bowl in tournaments and paid for me to participate in several leagues. Like I can judge on this bike. Make sure to tell us all about this bike and how much fun you have! Have you been mountain biking or is this a start? I would guess it is not a start but maybe?

    Thanks ladies! I am pretty excited.

    AA: I have been mountain biking a bit....first in Peru (sort of pseudo mt biking), then Moab and Banff, but this is my first mountain bike of my own. It is way more than I was planning/expecting to get, but I couldn't pass up this opportunity! I will have to come up riding in your neck of the woods sometime!
