You need to Google the first thread you participated in about them on
this NG. I had demoed a RM bike with them on it and wrote that they
are dangerous because they had a tendency to spin when wheeliedropping.
You came back and admitted they were in fact dangerous when you broke
your wrist.

Glad we got that settled. I was starting to wonder whether this was the
Chris G of "Chris G and Shaner" fame or not.

Is this the Chris G who wears a thong riding, or am I thinking of
someone else? I knew it wasn't Chris Glidden, whose quiet enjoying his
new baby. Last I heard, the thong wearing Chris hucking the urban
scene on a Cove. But hey, what do I know? I can't even keep track of
my own kids, let alone amb's.
