Hi guys,
Like OldDogDan said, I'm not exactly new around here, but new on DT.
Joined last month. Been riding since '93. First bike was a ParkPre with a purple elastomer fork and a Ti plated finish. According to sierragoldens I have achieved legend status, although you might take that with a lick of salt, because he made that determination after I fed him a couple shots of Patron. :drunk:
Anyways, I'm glad to be here. And I'd like to know what the Rules are for New 'Girl' on the Ride.

Girls or guys, it's the same rule, and it always rhymes with "cheer". Welcome, and I hope I'm on the ride where you satisfy the rule!

Welcome -- you've probably learned a thing or two about riding in 18 years on a bike, eh?

Welcome Mino! :hello:

I hope Evdog does not mind me posting his photo of you (on the Cowboy Trails), but this is typical of the stuff you ride without hesitation on your "big travel" bike.....a 100mm Truth!!!

Hi! Thanks All! I certainly feel welcome now and it’s great. But I have to warn you, I don’t think I’ll be on-line much. I already got warned by my husband about spending a little too much time on FB chatting and looking at photos. And now I’ve up an joined this forum. What was I thinking?

Looks like I was a little off base on Rule #1 but made up for it on Rule #2 with the Patron. I didn't even know about the rule then.

No, I was not out at Daley this week.

I’ve actually been riding on the dirt since ’71. Here’s a photo to back that up.

I’ve been on a mountain bike for only 18 yrs. And now on a Mountain Unicycle (Muni) for almost 2 years. You might see me practicing Muni on Cowles or elsewhere.

Tigger is my little mascot I ride with most of the time. He thought he found his soulmate out at Little Creek Mesa but it turned out to be a petroglyph. This photo and fond memories are all he has of her.
