Wyrd I'm here. Started out mountain biking in Michigan where I'm from and now mountain bike all over Arizona where I live. Great biking out here!
I ride a Trek VRX300, I've enjoyed it a ton so far!
:P

Cool pixelFrog. I’d like to get down to the southwest in the future. Hopefully to the mtnbkr mecha ... Moab.
I ride an old Cannondale Delta V frame with a variety of mid to high range components.
I ride in Southern Ontario, mostly in the Caledon hills.

I ride a trek 4500, aluminum frame, Rock shox Jett, not a bad little ride.
I take it everywhere...Peterborough ( mu hometown) has some nioce dirty trails, The Don Valley inT.O. has some pretty nasty rides too.

hey fusion41, Moab rocks the house. I've been there 6 or 7 times, but unfortunately only hiking, never biking oddly enough.
Hey check out some of the video on this guys site, totally bad ass, Moab representing!!!

I used to ride at least 4x per week when I was in grad school in Tallahassee, because the best trails in the area bisected my apartment complex. I got spoiled. I moved back to Tampa, and now I am lucky if I get a chance to go once a month, which is sad. I may move up north, and if that is the case, that means a lot more riding and an excuse to get a full suspension rig.
I really want to get into downhill, but its hard to do living in Florida!
I have a Cannondale f900 xt/lx, downhill wheels, full discs and carbon riser bars. If I get a new rig, it will be a Cannondale Jekyll 2000 or 3000, depending on what I get the wife!

I used to do a lot of racing (rode for the Ridgeback UK team) but that was 10 years ago now, live in London so I don't get out very often these days.
I've got a Cannondale Delta-V gathering dust in my spare room awaiting the time when I move somewhere nice and hilly.

excellent links. Thanks.
gonna be some buying some vids I think.If I get a new rig. Will probably be a Gary fisher of the Sugar persuasion. I’ve heard on good authority they are the best FS XC bikes around.

I am from denver.. ride whenever i can.. have a old Salsa Ala carte with the cool bontrager fork and I have Moutain Goat whisky town Racer... shocks and the whole bit... not dig that bike so much.. I really want to set-up a single speed... I am tired of gears.. I actually like finding fucked up stuff to ride in the city more than the trails anymore...
