Those are all nice but how do I go about getting one within my price range?

I did take a glance at what was on CL the other day but I have no idea what's good or what to look for. Should I just limit my search to my price range and just pick one?

I hit up a couple of people on CL so I'm just waiting for their response. What kind of bike is yours, Travis?

About this time last year I shopped pretty seriously for a mountain bike, but never got one. Partly because I have nobody to ride with. Where do you normally ride Stu?

My buddy in Chicago put a bike rack on his Z.

I don't have anyone to ride with, either. I'll need to find a work out partner as well pretty soon but that's another point.

I ride all over, but mostly by Greenville and Walnut Hill. I've ridden as far south as Oak Cliff and south of I-20, as well as out by Chris's house near Grapevine Lake, and north up in Plano. Might even get out to Lake Ray Roberts area at some point hopefully, which is like 50 miles north of me.

ONR wash & wax is today's daily special at DI. I'm tempted to get some finally.

Any noticeable improvement over regular ONR wash?

to me it does make it a little slicker and shinier

i really liked LA Fitness, clean.... alot of tvs for cardio... music playing. nice equipment that is placed in a circuit so you just make your way down the row and you have a complete workout

I've never used the ONR wax stuff, but like Travis said I've heard others say it seems to be shinier.

Hmm, I think I'll finally pick some of this up and try it out. Is this what you used when you were at the house last time?

Edit: Nvm, just saw your above post.

Yeah, Stu was explaining to me how good it was last time he was over. Never thought to try it out before he mentioned it and I got to see how it worked.
