I'm really bored here in the desert. no real friends or girlfriend. when i get into something i get into it full fledge pretty much. i geuss it's my nature as a leo to have the best life can offer.

i built a cannondale mt. bike back in 94-96 it took me 2 years to build and some the parts still cost the same price today. i invested close to $2600 in 2 years building from the frame up. the frame alone was $800 minus $300 cause i traded in my old frame.


come on you guys have to post a pic with all these hop-ups. I'm dying to see what you guy rides look like.
