Figured I'd introduce myself since I've been lurking awhile. Name is Shawn, and I'm looking to join vmb come springtime. I'm 34, and first started mountain biking around 91 on a old trek. I've ridden many different bikes throughout the years, and currently have a specialized epic collecting dust. I say that because I had a serious injury at work in may 2010, and don't forsee me riding again until spring 2011. I really want to get serious about riding again (XC), and have a goal to do some am racing. This injury has taught me how important my health is, and I'm sure it will take me awhile to get back in shape, but when I bounce back I'll be up for riding & meeting with new people. I also have a few riding buddies that have expressed interest so it may be a package deal. I also do mma/grappling (that's sidelined as well) & I've turned many fellow students onto the benefits of cycling. I'll send in my twenty bucks in two weeks when I get my next comp check, $ is tight because I'm only making a small percentage of my normal wage on workers comp. Looking forward to it :thumbsup:
