          well even after my unfortunate accident last wk, I'm still working on her (and is driveable).....so I mounted the new Yakima bike racks yesterday, and biked around manhattan, brooklyn & governors island to break in the new mt bike.....now time to take her onto some trails.

          I'm still waiting on my insurance company to iron things out w/ my car accident, but I've already locked in a bodyshop to do the work.....and a complete & proper repair & full respray of the entire car(cut/reweld panel, glass removal & panels painted off the car) is on order.

          Will update progress in the upcoming wks.

                  that really sucks, your car was really coming along. But the damage doesn't look too terrible, just sheet metal, not structural (rocker panel or something bad like that).

                    Glad to hear you're saving her. Good looking hardtail also. Which trails do you ride? Any road biking?

                      thanks...yeah fortunately its not too bad. I kind of wish it was the front fender instead though. The rear quarter needs to be cut out & rewelded. Its going to a very reputable shop, so i'm not worried it will be done the right way.

                      thanks man. It took me forever to locate this exact bike. lol. had to have it shipped from a bike shop in Chicago. I'm still a newbie w/ mt biking, although back in my younger days i used to freestyle/bmx.

                              should get a colour matched IS trunk lip before paint, would really go great with the IX skirts and front lip IMO.

                              doesnt have to be colour matched yet if its on its way to paint
