looks like a pretty nice bike. Might also want to check out Giant. You can get alot more for your money with anything under $2k since they make almost everyone else's bikes under that cost. Specialized included......

Yeah I checked out a couple of Giants bikes. Definetly have nice features. My friend owns a bike shop who carries Specialized, I'm going to see what kind of deal I can get on the Specialized first.

im picking on you on behalf of every misplaced appostrophe i've seen in my life! :P ;) :lol:

I was running on very little sleep at the moment and sometimes I just don't feel like fixing ish.... :P

Steak was awesome. I got some pics but the camera is at home. Bacon wrapped Filets!!!! Steaks came out perfect!

As for the job, no I don't have to move currently. But they did say if I really REALLY wanted to climb the latter, Richmond, VA is the place to be for the region. But then again I can go anywhere in the US if I choose to. We'll see how things go for now and if I get a wild hair and just feel like something different, I may change regions and go live in Cali or some place warmer for a few years and then come back. To early to tell now though.

Currently I work for Florida Hospital in their IT dept. I'm moving to Downtown Orlando for the new office. It is a regional position so I will be traveling for the job, and as stated, if I wanted to really climb the latter, I may have to move but I also don't think that would be for at least a few years.

Full suspension MTBs are over rated.

Look into a good Hardtail..

Hardtails were an option, definetly cheaper but, the trails around here are half man made and mostly rocky terrain so the fts was better for me.

if you're going to climb the ladder you might want to learn to spell it first. :P

I haven't bugged you for awhile about your spelling.

They stopped making it for this year, but you might want to look for a Giant NRS. The single best non-downhill dual suspension bike out there. When climbing or pedaling hard the rear suspension automatically locks out and it climbs and sprints just as well as a hardtail. I would love to find one. Its also only about 25 lbs in production form and the carbon one is even lighter.
