| Reply I haven't seen this guy around for years. What ever happened to him, does he still ride / lurk? "I know enough to be dangerous" - http://www.perpetual-insanity.com/mbatbmx/ | |

| Reply You ever search Google for your name and something weird comes up early? Yes, I'm still out here, and I am rarely riding right now. With two kids which have been taking up half my free time and running my own company taking the other half, I am extremely busy, and extremely out of shape for riding - or much else. I still have my Ares put together and do ride it extremely infrequently, but don't consider myself 'done' with riding - as much as I'm on an extended break. I just need the kids old enough to be more self sufficient and my wife to be able to have the time to get a part time job. It may all help if we sell our home and use the proceeds to move into something a bit smaller, but with almost zero mortgage. Very expensive living in the Washington, DC area - and I'm definitely feeling the effects of it all many days. Of course, every now and then I get the urge to work on the BMXTRIX website, but then I remember that I've got some programming to do for a client, or a diaper to change... Strangely, I'm so busy I don't miss it as much as I thought. I mean, I remember how when I went to bed at night I was always bummed that I couldn't keep riding. Or when it was wet - or worse - windy... How frustrating it was to be off my bike for a day. Yet, I never believed that I could just be part of my family and part of life and not feel the bike pulling at me constantly. Yet, here I am. I do miss the feeling of riding, and the feeling of yearning to ride every second I possibly can. But, the riding itself, I don't miss on a day-to-day level because I have something else which occupies my time and family. FYI: www.avintegrated.com - www.jacobvail.com I'm not gone, don't you ever believe it. I'll haunt you all if I die. ;o) Flatland... umm... yeah, I remember flatland. | |
