Ha, that interview with Jonty and Needles saying how they'd always wanted to be on the same team. I doubt Jontys dream was to be his bro's mechanic though.

Not that it matters, but I'd always thought of him as having kind of a "wooden" personality. Turns out I was dead wrong. Shows what I know! At first I thought he'd be a bad fit with Brendan, but maybe not. They'll have a good time together, and maybe, just maybe, some of Neko's work ethic will rub off on Brendan allowing him to unleash his potential too... That would be cool to see because he is undoubtedly an awesome rider to watch.

Don't forget he is and was super young. Few people turn into media darlings at age 18. It takes a little time to grow a personality.

why? so you can complain about how his helmet depicts an IPA and go on an hour long rant about how you hate IPA's?


;)
hey i started drinking pale ales recently. I could probably get down on their pilsnerp. I might actually be able to leave the house now that my kiddo is old enough to not drown on her own spit, so i might actually get to be there.

It is pretty cool how he's stoked on being american, yet he's on a decidedly international team.

don't know when your due date is, but my energy level and capacity for higher level function was pretty much zero until she was 3mo old. then I felt too guilty leaving for a weekend, then I didn't actually want to. I'll probably get back out a couple times this year, on my totally gay 29er.

took my 9yo to US nat'ls at Beech a few years back. Got off the chairlift. "Dad, I've gotta poop."
Took a dump on the amateur track.
:rofl:
Haha, took my 7 year old to Bromont in 2009 and had a similar situation. I took him into the woods and taught him my technique that I call the Grounded Koala!
