getting ready...

[popeshawnpaul]

I think that shop in Redmond Passion is right behind my law office...

I haven't even got my bow out yet.  I know I need a new string and need to order that.  Then I'll have to retune etc.  Then I need new arrows and my honey do list is still long...  Then I don't have a hunting partner/shooting buddy now that my cousin is going to Iraq.  To top it off it's halibut and lingcod season and my boat is still in the shop.  I'm a mess and way behind this year.

Redmond Cycle is ok. I have not had much work done there but what they did was fair and good. Gerk's Alpine hut on the other hand I have had mixed experience with. They told me one time that my whole bike needed a new sprocket, chain and rear wheel gears when I asked them to put on a new chain. I took my bike home and put on a new chain myself to fix the issue. At that moment I decided to start tuning my own bikes. I still let shops work on them but for the most part I do a lot of the work myself. The tools are cheap and it only takes a little bit of effort. I ride 12-14 miles a day 3-5 days a week.

I got some new arrows just about ready to put some broadheads on. Those should arrive next week.

Here is one of my bikes which I ordered each item seperately and assembled myself. It takes mountain bike and street tires or even rims of different sizes. Just have to adjust the brakes real quick.

thats purdy..........

mines an ugly trek that my wife ran over last week.......

[Ray]

I used to have two treks. One I liked and one that I didn't. I still think that if you are not using it to commute or for real hardcore recreation that a cheapo would be your best bet. As in one that got run over by your wife last week.

I basically commute except I end up back at home I ride from Marymoor to bothell and back every morning. Im cheep on the bicycle front I see all of the expensive rides and they are nice but Id rather have custom rifles/bows and cool hunting trips

[Ray]

I used to do some of that ride every morning when I lived on the other side of the valley. I liked it much better than my current commute. I see expensive bikes and lots of spandex. Then I laugh 

[boneaddict]

I had a walmart special up until this last fall.   I paid about $700 for something, but still couldn't tell you what.  Must mean I am softcore........I was thinking about commuting...20 some miles to work and then back, but the Wenas wind would KILLLLLLLL me.

[WDFW-SUX]

Wind sucks.

I take it that silence on the spandex means you wear it Passion  Sorry for the offensive remark.
