Can I send you my Stumpjumper so you can ruin that too? I can’t justify a new bike to the wife when this one has carried me through two Leadville 100’s, but I’m POSITIVE that you can make it go away. That’s a shameless plug for a new bike. I like it!!

I think "inspiring" is a good word actually. Inspiration to laugh anyway… I wrote about you on my blog today b/c you do inspire me in some demented, strange way. But in a GOOD demented, strange way. Really.-Beast Mom

steve – my bike rack is to blame for most of the scratching you see there. it clamps down on the top tube and does a good job of ruining paint jobs. but yeah, that bike has also seen more than its fair share of wrecks.queenmckim – i’m going to need some clarity on how i’m inspiring. you mean i’m inspiring you to destroy your bike? or to miss your weight loss goals? to post embarassing pictures of yourself on the internet? i’m not sure i am the right kind of inspiration for anyone.kenny – yeah, i guess the fact that i crashed (again) isn’t going to exactly shock anyone i’ve ridden with. you did just give me an idea for tomorrow’s blog post, though. thanks!dug – you are barely 22% as churlish as usual. buck up, man.

speaking of squirrels, bob, remember that one you ran over up south fork? and that deer you hit? you’re a menace. or you used to be anyway.

No offense Eldon but maybe that bike committed suicide. It looks like it’s had a long, hard life.

you, crash … I can’t imagine that. Better to sacrifice your top tube than your face, ie. fallmoab2003. May I suggest you replace your paragon with a paragon. Take your frame to your nearest fisher dealer and see what they can do. The 2006 paragon is a sweet ride with juicy 7 avid discs. I believe the frame is yellow and the 2niner wheels will help you roll over those big technical ups that made you crash in the first place.

Bummer about your bike. My husband and I went bike shopping on Saturday and he purchased a Trek 7300 at Greggs. Bikes have changed so much since either of us rode one, pretty amazing!
