AH! I see.
10 yo DH bikes are gonna be beat to shit mostly as that one is.
I can CL dream tho, cant I?
mmmmm...lunchbeer
I think we lost @Serial Midget to fun-tirement, but I had been on his case to sell the giggle pig (basically 3? year old fancy downhill bike) while he can recoup some of that sweet, sweet Obamacare health insurance money for it.
He usually "gives" away his bikes to hardship cases but you never know...
ETA: I've been meaning to reach out to him re: Yellowstone road biking in the spring/mud season, if we hook up I'll ask him again...

@TN: way better option:

Standard bearing sizes, std shock size, and most importantly: tapered steerer.

Looks nice! Its a large though & some mediums may be too big for my 30" inseam
Yeah that's what I'd go with compared to those other ads.
Or look for a DW Link Turner DHR. They seem to have hit rock bottom prices.
RE: wife is making plans for summer time trip your way. I'll be in touch.
ID/Montucky mini-monkeyfest 2.0, sounds good
I don't think I'll get the rental "online" until mid- to late summer (if I'm lucky), so you and yours are more than welcome to stay there in the interim.
25 mins to West Yellowstone, 2 blocks from the river and a very kid-friendly float (we have SUPs, pfds, 17' canoe and a fishing kayak)
Oh and (s)miles and (s)miles of gravel roads and singletrack in every direction.
PM me when you have tentative plans and thoughts of what you'd like to see/do and I can help you fine tune/minimize drive time...
If you're hoping to stay in the park, I'd look sooner rather than later, though there are always cancellations.

The rental is close enough to do the West side tourism in day trips (I.e. no need to stay at Old Faithful) but the park is quite large and I recommend folks stay in Canyon and/or Cooke City to see the NE section...

i hope you mean gum, because if not, a few cavities are gonna be the least of your worries.
Does your company make titanium tongue replacements?
we make mandible hardware yes, but the dental implant division was in the process of being sold when i started.
well its a start. my great uncle started smoking as a teenager, continued until his mid 50's when his dr told him to quit or he was gonna die. he switched to chew, mouth cancer finally got him. didn't make it past 65.
Anyone have recommendations for backyard ground cover? I have a small backyard (20x19 - we live downtown in a townhouse). We currently don't use our backyard because there's a garden that's overgrown, and a small floor of paving stones that's uneven and hurts our bare feet. We were thinking of putting a deck in, but quotes are coming in at around $7000. I'm thinking of maybe doing it myself. I mean how hard can it be to build a deck?! 
Or... maybe going with a different ground cover... like flagstones or something. Essentially, we want something low-maintenance, that we can put a table and chairs on, and a 2 or 3 Adirondack chairs. We'd put in some planter boxes and plants too.
Are there other options other than decks and flagstone/paving stones? [edited to add:] that are pleasant under bare feet.

tobacco. it's a helluva drug.

normal pleasant or mandown pleasant?
I put in a patio with flagstones and a low stone wall around part of it when we bought our house. I did it right, with proper layers of drainage underneath, etc. It was a pretty big job to do solo, but I think it came out well in the end and has held up pretty well over the past decade. I'll snap a pic when I get home.Anyone have recommendations for backyard ground cover? I have a small backyard (20x19 - we live downtown in a townhouse).

Just make sure to seal it with Schaeffer's!!
Didn't make it quite early enough for Wednesday runs... but the location is gut.

Nice! Do you put tables and chairs on it? Not too wobbly?
if you zoom in you’ll see a small metal table and two chairs behind the tree. you have to move them around a bit, but it's not too hard to find a level spot.
What about AstroTurf/fake grass? Seems like that might fit the bill.Anyone have recommendations for backyard ground cover? I have a small backyard (20x19 - we live downtown in a townhouse).
