Buffalo has many restaurant spots and those are fun to chill at with the right crew/company. I play hard in Toronto. ---

hrm… given my budget as of late… as soon as I pay off all the typical used car maintenance on the GSR, I want to start investing heavily in my Roth. That said… Not a lot of money. I like to go to the beach, read @ B&N for hours at a time, go to the UNC-W university library, go to the gym, spend time w/gf when she’s around… Not too wild and crazy. Hope to take up surfing soon tho 🙂 ---

Haha, I’m not super quick on the uphills either. Still have some weight to lose, (already dropped 15lbs since beginning of May, want to drop another 15 still) I normally don’t have anyone to ride with… I was thinking of going tomorrow evening if the weather is good. (scattered t-storms in the forecast, so who knows.) ---

of all the things i’ve had and gotten rid of, i miss my baller ass mountain bike the most. one day, i’ll be able to afford another one and i’ll start riding again. ---

[/quote] ill get into town in a few days, and we can go down to e-ville, surprisingly ive also never been to hunters, but i can show you elli, its got some siqqq fast downs, technical singletrack, my hardtail has no probs there, you can easily get up to 50mph on the down… i usually go alone since my riding buddy is too lazy now because of his gf… im down like james brown… ---

Hunters is fun. It’s different in the sense that is a lot of shorter ups and downs. Short, but steep climbs, with some very fun downhills. I don’t know if I’ve got the balls to hit 50mph on my MTB, haha, fastest I’ve hit was a bit over 20mph. That said though, I have been wanting to ride e-ville, so I welcome the opportunity. ---

[/quote] i just paid a lot of money for a new apartment about 10 minutes ago. i also have a lot of bills to pay. i really can’t afford it. and seriously, i break parts. when i’m on a mountain bike i feel the need to jump on and off of everything i see. i would probably need to buy a decent bike. when i do have the money, i will buy something and we will ride i promise.
