Sheesh !
No wonder tech/mech riding (skinnies) is dead on the west coast.
Talk about needing slow speed skill with big consequences.

I think this is my 21st year as an obsessive mountain biker. I shudder to think what I've spent on bikes, but I don't regret any of them.

92 Tech Nova, bought used and beat to get to work and had no idea what mountain biking was. One off road adventure and it was on.
93 Stumpjumper M2 (Broken)
94 Stumpjumper M2
94 S-works M2 Team (Stolen)
94 S-works FSR
97 GT STS Thermoplastic (Broke 2 of them like everyone else)
99 SC Bullit (Stolen)
99 SC Chameleon
00 SC Superlight
03 SC V10
03 SC Chameleon (Broken)
05 SC V10 (Broken)
06 SC V10 (Replacement)
06 SC Chameleon (Replacement)
06 SC Blur 4X
07 SC V10
07 SC Jackal (still have)
11 SC V10C (now my wife's)
11 SC NomadC (still have)
12 SC V10C.2 (still putting it together)

The best ones that I no longer own were the Blur 4X and the Chameleon.

Wow dude, you really got an early start.
Did you keep that old stumpjumper? Would be a collectors item now I'm sure.
I was too busy skateboarding in the 80s to notice that MTB existed.
