oh and vince and zack....i used to mountain bike. i mainly rode everywhere on my bike in the summer and would put somewhere in the ballpark of 2k miles on it each summer. i have an old as sin 1995 gt timberline fs. i love that bike and will never get rid of it. lol
I went for a ride this morning... started in Valley Green from the Lincoln Drive entrance... really nice paths and trails. Rode down to the Valley Green Inn and came back.. Put the bike in the car and drove down to the drive and rode along Boat House Row to the art museum and like half way to University City when I decided to come back.

Morning all. Gotta love it when SL is down for a weekend.
I'd make you an offer on the springs, but like everything else, you'd probably change your mind about selling them to me.

like i said prolly so im not gonna make any commitments yet. The xB is at the dealer today trying to figure out what the problem is in the front so if they try to pull the "your car is lowered so its not covered" bull crap im just gonna raise it up and take it to a dif dealer

oh yeah and wifey picked up her new 08 yaris on friday night.
I have to say though Team Toyota's finance department sucks *****.
She has perfect credit and they came back with a 9% interest I looked at him and said what are u frickin nuts grabbed my keys and said lets get the hell outta here then he is like no no let me go see what i can do and he came back with 5.9....it ____es me off because they were trying to screw someone like that with intrest. all and all she got the low payment she wanted so she is happy. I have been driving it all weekend though i love it!
