HaHa Finger, I bet you would... 2smoke would be nice power to rate ratio, but what a pain in the *** it would be to fill it up at the station when you are out on an all day ride.
I am absolutely going to test ride one before I buy, what ever it ends up being. There is a cool place not far from me called Demlers, it has just about every environment wrapped up inside of a 5sq mile area, water obstacles, dense woods, mud, wide open dirt roads, hill climbs that will launch you like a rocket, and somebody even made a small mx track complete with high banked turns and all.
The local township now owns it. Most of the time you have no problems with the local police dept. Sometime you get that one guy who will kick you out of there. I have been lucky and not had any trouble back there. I do know folks that have claimed to have been cited for trespassing. There are some wicked mud holes that looked to have swallowed a 4wheeler or 2.
All this talk about bikes and riding. Man I hope this job turns out to be the real deal!

After speaking with the recruiter today it looks like the hiring manager told everyone they had the job and they were the perfect fit... Unfortunately for me, the second interview he promised me never came to happen and I did not get the job...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHH
:m ad::m ad:
Why do people do stuff like that?

Yea, that really does suck a big one. Sorry to hear it.
I do a lot of interviews, and try to tell people right up front no offers are on the table at this time. IF we call you for a second interview, you MIGHT have a shot.
I hope you find something.

Well, from what I understand the job market sucks around here, as well as pretty much everywhere else up and down the eastern seaboard.
I am lucky, our company is in a unique position, we are almost immune from the ups and downs of the economy. We are slower then usual, but sometimes thats not so bad, we can get some stuff done that we have been putting off for a long time.
How are things in Buffalo NY ? I sense the job market there sucks also?
