  1. After getting my 29er, and after only
    with a few months of experience in mtb,
    I now dominate the locals in the trails
    around here. Proving to me it "IS" the
    bike you ride, more than ability,
    because some of these guys have been
    riding for years, but they ride crappy
    26" wheels, so I kick their ass. But
    now I'm worried, because I've been
    reading a lot on the 650B wheel. Does
    anyone know how a 650b stacks up against
    a 29er?

    Interesting. In r.b-t, you whine that you're burned out on riding. Yet
    in this group, you're burning up the trails. How much attention do you
    need?

    Regardless of which one is true, it's all really just pathetic.

    something new everyday.

    prepare to be dominated. get the chicks while you can,
    get some cool "action shots", and spread rumors you're
    moving away.

    We all know that 27ers are the biggest and best. They even help with
    road stunts.

    For those in the know, the suspect has been aprehended, arrested and
    vehicle impounded. A Wittier cop being dilligent the next day saw the
    vehicle, pulled it over and the driver admitted guilt.

    Wittier and not a wittier cop.....geesh, what a maroone.
