Thanks :)
The Zaskar was my race bike for a couple of years. Now that I don't have that much time anymore it is standing mainly at home - looking nice. The '96 model had the best looking frame in my opinion except those of the two following years with the machined dropouts. The only thing I would have liked more was a Xizang but I could never afford it...

2006 GT 5 idrive 3.0

Brand new, ridden for the first time today. It needs a lighter wheelset, crankset, some carbon fiber and a new fork but It is fun starting point. I'm waiting for the extra firm spring kit to come for the fork. The 5 inches of travel is awesome. The rear shock is nice, but the fork sucks.

I had the best comment on my GT this weekend, I asked my sister to pick my bike up and then her old steel road bike and her reply after she picked up the road bike was "what did you put on my bike to make it so heavy?"
