Drederek Posted May 9, 2001 Posted May 9, 2001 Be sure to lock your bike if you ride in. I lost one to thieves a few years back. Its not all bad, kind of an outdoor gym. Quote
Slide Posted May 9, 2001 Author Posted May 9, 2001 cool, thanks. I'll prolly ride my nasty beat up trek in. Used to leave it unlocked around Portland and not have it stolen. It's amazing what a few wrecks and a handful of stickers can do to lower the aesthetics of a bike Quote
Matt Posted May 23, 2001 Posted May 23, 2001 Thought I'd give you a heads up-- I went to Fossil Rock last weekend and came home to find a tick crawling up my leg and another with its head burrowed in my butt cheek. Be careful! Quote
