Default A picture

Well my wife is cooking early here at work, (free food is great) anyway, I brought my son with me he's 9 and we rode the bike up from home, (2 miles) yea I know my commute is brutal. Oh and I only saw one car. Anyway I thought with the extra 70 lbs I would have to use second gear on the hill to the center here, but I was impressed that the bike took it in 3rd as if there was no more weight than normal. When I got to work I decided to park the bike closer to my office for the first time, because I usually park way down by the warehouse and when I looked out the door, I was surprised to see how my bike was in between two maple trees and I just had to take a picture.

Yea it's rough but what are you going to do right? And to top it off, and I probably already said this but the other day I got home and my wife was mowing the lawn and I said since you have this covered, can I go riding for a while and she said sure have fun. [sm=jawdrop.gif] My first thought was who are you and what did you do with my wife. Am I dying? what's happening here She's a keeper for sure, been married 12 years and going strong.

Hey deej, I have a request. [sm=hiya.gif] Could you take a close-up picture of your new tire on your bike? Thanks [sm=gobble.gif](I've been try to use "the gobble" but there never seems to be an appropriate time for it.)

I think that's what my son weighs, I asked him but he didn't know either. And as far as my clean bike, I have had it really dirty, but again I'm a clean freak so there you have it.

Hey deej make sure you let us know your impression on the 606 VS 603 on the dirt and slab. I am thinking of going 606 too. Unfortunately with the closest trail 60 miles away, I'm probably 90% on/10 % off but I really don't want to sacrifice off road ability when I get there so hence the reason for thinking 606.
