1. 08 Time VXS Translink
2. Quattro Assi Custom
3. KHS something or another (early 70s. my bar bike)
4. Dahon Fold-a-bike (murdered out black)
5.Gary fisher hard tail single speed (or 2x9 depending on the day)
6.IRO Mark V Pro
8.08Giant Trance X1

I have been gravitating towards my moto more and more-not out of laziness, but safety. Whenever I go out on the ninja, I have boots, gloves, pants, jacket and full face. When I go out on my roadie, I have spandex, spandex, and well....you get the point. I have never been hurt as badly as I have in road bicycle crashes. 11 years of racing/training and i feel like an old man (I'm 23). My last crash was at about 26mph directly on my bad knee, on some brand new grippy asphalt. I couldn't walk for a week; will have the scars for the rest of my life.

I still work in a bike shop, but it's more out of convenience and ease-no paperwork to take home. That being said, anyone who needs ANYTHING bike related, PM me with your queries and I can most likely get a fellow 250 rider a good deal.
