Ripken, hey, welcome. On this forum you will find a smattering of opinions, good advice, even better stories, and of course the usual bantering that goes with forums like this. Ask away and you will get a plethera of answers sure to make you scratch your head. But the end result is that it's a really cool place to learn about mountain biking and the people who support the sport of mountain biking. :D So join in on the discussions; I am sure you'll get some answers to any and all of your questions.:cool:
