I don't have a photo of my downhill/xc bomber, an ancient K2 Attack 2.0. Looks like this one, except I ditched the rear caliper and installed a rear disc instead. They're mechanical, not hydraulic, but very stoppy. Even when wet.

This bike has been indestructible - except for blowing out the rear shock when I was at my absolute fattest, it has never needed anything except regular maintenance. It's also so ancient now that kids think it's cool again.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Hit twice on a bike, last time was a busted shoulder from the hit. Tend to pay way more attention in planning road routes when I do go out to use roads with more shoulder room.
