Rocked the trails like a vandal

Took the afternoon off today and when mtb down at the center trails for ~1 1/2 hours. It was a great bit of riding. It started to rain about half way through, but the trails stayed dry right up to the time I ended. My knee hurt for just a bit while riding hillside. I decided to stop at Rassmesson to talk with Adam about my pain. I suspected that the shim placed under my left cleat had collapsed, but Adam didn't think so. I'll keep and eye on it and let him know.

While at the bike shop I saw this new Specialized Rockhopper. Compare it for a moment with a picture of my Cannondale F600 from 2005. Does the paint scheme look familar. Nice way to rip off Cannondale. Try being orginal for once. I still think the Cannondale version is better paint scheme. I like the way Cannondale changed their text of the 'Cannondale' to match the scheme while Specialized just printed the same old version. My Cannondale has better components too even at a 2005. Specialized is way to over priced at $1300 for all Deore component and a no name crank. You also can't beat the headshock on the F600.
