Good to see another person getting into cycling. Ever since I blew up the rx7 I had more time to try other things. I started cycling alot.



Here are my two toys.

Maybe I should break my cars so I have to start riding again. I have a Specialized Rock Hopper A1 Comp FS that I've had for quite some time.

Let's see a picture of "2005 Subaru Legacy GT Limited - TDC 40BB, Perrin TMIC, Cobb DB, GT Spec header...so much more"



I have a 2003 Legacy 2.5GT as my daily driver. I wish I could've bought the 2005 GT with the turbo instead, but the deal was too good on the 2003 and I needed a daily driver...

I have raced a couple of Ontario Cup Mountain bike events with the Kona. I also do the 24 hour and 8 hour relay races in Ontario, which are the epic 8 hour relay races and summer solitce/hot august nights. I was planning on doing the entire season but alas... Work got in the way. The road bike is for going out and hammering with the group. Usually about 75 km rides in farm country.
