Likes Winning
Dislikes Losing, faceplants, injuries (to me or bike)

Boxers, briefs, G-string? tighty-whitey briefs (made of cotton - see question above)
Favorite CD 6 month with a high interest rate, though stocks are better for growth
Why You Mountain Bike Relieve stress from the daily grind. Plus I couldn't be on TWW if I didn't ride.
If You Didn't Mountain Bike, You'd... ...be fat.
Goals in Life Haven't a clue. I don't want to grow up.
In High School, Were You a Straight A Student, Nerd, Jock, Geek (check all that apply) 1/3 geek, 1/3 nerd, and 1/3 with the muscle car crowd
Someone you look up to Basketball players - they are sooo damned tall unlike those short, skinny euro road riders
Quote Who put that pole in just before the finish line? That wasn't there when I started!
Something about you that we may not know For many years, I was a herpetoculturist.
If you could invite three people from history, who would they be? Mike Gin, Joel Northrup, and (so we'd have someone to cook for us) Martha Stewart
