Just wanted to hear comments and ideas from everyone on the new gear they either got or would recommend to the readers for the upcoming race season. :p
I'm not a racer, but since I'm dropping a large wad on my first new Mtn Bike in 9 years, I thought I would vote. That's right, I'm stepping into the '90's with front suspension.
Actually, I should get to vote twice since my wife bought a new ride as well! (Now you see why I got one).

Surly Singlespeed and a Santa Cruz Blur - can we say someone is in trouble with the wife this year???

Well, lets see....
1. New salsa caballero with 100% all new components (my fourth MTB, might I add)
2. mavic ksyrium sl ssc road wheels
3. complete new set of clothing and 2 new helmets
4. misc. parts for my 3 other mtb's, commuter, and road bike
I think all that I don't qualify for is the streamers.... :)
It's a heck of a good thing I am 23, stably employed and not involved with the opposite sex... LOL

Well it all started with some easton monkey lite riser bars. then i was asked...why did you need those? what's wrong with the bars you have? well i said.......they look cool! make a long story short.....i broke down and bought a cannondale mt-800 mountain tandem. so much for the retirement fund! it's a sweet bike. handles the gravel really well!! :banana:

Looking at the poll, it appears we had some very good kids on Santa's list this Christmas. I knew everyone reading/posting at this site was such a wholesome and good group of people. :laugh:
