    Winston...man you are on the ball.  I read the story at about 7:30, made few phone calls at work, checked Foo at 8:25 and you already posted the story. 

     Great article.  Finally a nice write up on a mountain biker.

    Yep, he is the CoverBoy for the Register AND for the OC Outdoors section...

    I saw that this morning. Snapped the following picture: Click to enlarge.

    Great read & good job Darin.  I think I'll be following suit in a couple more months when Winston is just a bit older.  My V6 Tacoma isn't even warmed up by the time I get to work.  Time to get off my lazy bum,  whip out the Burly trailer and attach it to the P1.

    Whatever, Buckley has lost all credibility with me!!! (Frame is probably strapped to the back of a burro...dead from exposure somewhere in the Cascade Mountain Range.)

    Props to Maxwell!

    Solid work Maxwell!  Glad to see biking is a lifestyle and not just a weekend warrior type of thing for you.

    It was a pretty funny situation. He came riding up behind me, saying he couldn't believe how fast I was moving on a mountain bike. I explainded that it was more or less a road bike, with MTB bars.

    He said he was doing an article on Bike To Work Week, and would I mind if he got a couple of pictures. I said sure.

    We talked for a couple of minutes,  and then he called me later that morning and asked a few more questions. I figured he might mentin me in a sentence or two.

    HOLY CRAP, was I surprised! Surprise

    Pretty funny, I road in every night this week except for Friday. I drove in, and it felt really weird. I guess it's becomming a pretty good habit.
