Any Mountain Bikers?

Been riding for about 7 years now...I am a bit of a late bloomer. Started during my divorce just as a way to clear my head. Rode a Trek hardtail back then, and when I started to get heavy into it I started buying my full suspensions. Built a KHS as my first, then bought a couple of Specialized bikes. My go-to is my Stumpy Expert. The wife has a Camber Comp 29er. 398430_4374985007806_1151554208_n.jpg
This was at Slickrock in Moab a couple years back.

No problem man! Just glad it went to someone who'll enjoy it for years to come. Just send pics when you make it out on the trail!
 
Looks like Jeep is into MTB too woohoo. New sponsor for GT Racing and the Athertons

Great rides everyone. I just bought a new frame myself. It's a 2010 Turner 5 spot XXL leftover. Turner let it go for $665 shipped!!!! I guess they got tired of looking at it at the office. Came with a Fox CTD kashima coated shock. I did a 1 X 10 set up with a 32t race face up front and a 42t wolf gear on the back. Along with an XT drivetrain and SLX brakes.
I painted the fork black ( from white ) and added new Fox vinyl.

Some great rides in here!

I have slowed down a lot over the past year and a half, as my riding partners have dwindled some. changes in work schedule and some medical issues with the wife that have moved to some less strenuous time together are taking over, but need to get back on the trail soon.

My collection includes the Specialized Pitch Pro, on a King/Mavic 819 wheel set, Fox 36 Float, Thomson and RaceFace Atlas cockpit
Also shown is the wifes Safire

Thanks. 140mm frame and 160mm Float 36 fork.
I actually have my previous frame for sale now if any Clydesdales are interested.
It's a 2007 Turner RFX. XXL raw aluminum with a Fox RP23 shock.
 
Got a new bike for Xmas from the wife. 2014 Kona Taro. Its my first hardtail to ride on trails. Been out a couple times and I love it. All about the the AM hardtails!

I'm a Cat 1 XC and Super D/Enduro racer from the east coast. Picture #1 is me at the USAC National Championships this past year riding on my Trek Superfly F/S. My Superfly has a Project One custom paint job and a full XTR, Fox, and XXX build. My newest addition to the stable (as of last week) is my Trek Slash 9.9 with the brand new XTR 1x11 drivetrain and XTR Trail brakes, a Rock Shox Monarch Plus RC3 DebonAir for the rear suspension, and the all new Fox 36 Talas. Being that the weather is trash here in NC, it is on display at the Trek store I work at due to it being such a rare and beautiful bike.
