Season beginning? I've been riding for the last month and a half... I'll be out carving it up at Delaware and Alum this weekend; Look for two jackasses on pink and green standups.

Does the 18" feel a bit too big for you? I did get the ski done; it's a blast! Still trying to get a few things dialed in on it but I'm happy with it for now...

I'm still trying to find a good backup MTB for my GF to ride. She is 5'5", would she be able to ride a 17" frame 29er without too much of an issue or would that just be too big? The local place where I ride has some drops that require you to get off the seat and over the back wheel. I'm 5'10" and want to use it as my backup bike too.

Thanks for the responses guys, looks like it will be a no-go.

I've got a line on a 2007 23' toy hauler with some water damage from a roof leak. I've got the dealer talked down to $3700 but I'm just not sure if I want to pull the trigger yet (3 hour drive one way to pick it up). I just spent 5 months on a very labor intensive jetski build and I'm kind of tired of working on shit that isn't really fun to work on. The leaks were on the front end and the rest of the thing looks good from the pics. He said it would need new paneling and 2x4s. Has a clean title but I'm unsure of the miles. Think this would be a good buy? How much time and money would be involved in fixing it? Worth it or run away?

I've had a 2004 for two years now and love it. It was my first bike and I've been thinking about upgrading, but I can't really find anything that suits my needs better but a slightly newer R6...

Ugly?! I would do unspeakable things to that bike...

I just painted a jetski in my buddies garage and it turned out great. Wish I would have painted my bike myself too. I sanded it to 400 grit, a few coats of high build primer, scuffed to 600 grit, then laid down 2 coats of white base, 4 coats of Synergy Green base, followed by 4 coats of clear. Base and clear were done in one sitting (about two hours). It was much easier than I thought it would be. Spend the time to do the prep work, take your time, and it will more than likely turn out pretty good. This was pretty much my first paint job ever. Used a $100 Lowes gun.

Did they break it?

What size did you go with?

I'm thinking about picking up one of those Airborne Guardians for a backup/GF bike. I'm 5'10" and I ride a Fuel EX8 in 18.5" vitual. It seems like it might be a bit too big sometimes. I probably could have gotten a 17.5" but the price was right. My GF is around 5'8", but I would rather it be closer to my size. Any opinions? http://www.airbornebicycles.com/products/110-airborne-guardian-29er.aspx

I started out on, and still have, a 2004 R6. Had a good amount of time on quads previously, but nothing on two wheels without pedals. I've put about 8,000 miles on it in two years without incident so far. I've taken my MSF and started doing track days last year. I would say the track day improved my riding far more than the MSF did so that might be something to think about.

They liked the Evo X so much they had to copy it? It looks good though.

I'm looking for a backup/loaner/GF mountain bike for this season. Looking for a decent used hardtail in the $300-500 range. I would like a Trek, Specialized, Giant, ect; no Walmart bikes. 16"-18" frame size. I'm also looking for a 2-place PWC trailer to convert into a 3-place stand-up ski trailer. Thanks

Still looking

^ I did the same thing heading North on 23 just before Waldo. The cop was doing about the speed limit and kept speeding up/slowing down. I set the cruise for 5 over and as soon as I crept past him he flipped on his lights and pulled me over. Fucking assholes...

A CR private group at Splatterpark could be a lot of fun. I'd be in for that...

I would love to! Too bad I'm not qualified for it... I used to drive by the plant every day on my way to work/school.

Reminds me of one of my good friends. Dumbass goes out and buys a ZX14 after only having ridden a small Honda cruiser for a year. Hardly ever wears gear. We all decide to ride to a buddies wedding in our Tux's (groom too) but all agree to leave the bikes there and get rides home. Well after a night of drinking all the free alcohol we could, he decides to ride home. He even rode around someone trying to block him in and hauled ass down the road. Sure enough, ten minutes later we came across him in the ditch with a set of skid marks following him in. The bike wasn't quite totaled because the helmet strapped to the side took the brunt of the damage. He cracked his head on the pavement but managed to walk away with a huge lump on his forehead and some roadrash. He still didn't learn his lesson... I'm for sure not going to ride with him this summer unless he is wearing gear as I don't want to be in a similar situation as above.

I used to play competitively, now I just play rec a couple of times a year. Mostly just stick to speedball if I can because woodsball is boring and wastes too much paint.

Why the hell would you want to go to Marion?! If you have no way to avoid it, eat at the the Thirsty Turtle. After that, come help me sand on a jetski hull for about six hours...

I've got a $200 gift card that I've been waiting to use and I'm going to get in on friends and family day... hoping they will have some decent stuff in stock.

Hypothetically speaking, if the local drug task force were to serve a no-knock warrant on your house instead of the drug dealers next door, what would your legal options be? Lets say they busted down the back door and drug you out of bed at gunpoint before realizing you were not a black guy from Detroit. Lets also assume that they really fucked up somehow and put your address on the warrant instead of the house next door where the controlled buy actually went down. Opinions? If this were to happen to you, who would be a good lawyer to call?
