after a 2 hour roller ride (wathed some indy film on IFC and then switched to the 2003 tour -- of course, had to watch a mountain stage) i pieced my asylum together.  
she is a hardtail hand-me-down from an "x" speedgoat racer, not the full suspended's which should be soon to arrive at speedgoat's door.  
parts were stolen off my old santa cruz..  sob....  :(  
BUT - i have gone nutty and made the switch to disc brakes.  avid mechanicals were choosen as the price was right and i wanted to make sure i liked them before i switch everything over to disks.
last year, i broke my hand.  then to top it off, my hands were giving me issues - why?  hmmmmm.  could it be the huge hours i ride?  maybe?  
anyhoo, thought that the disks would save my hands a little, especially since whistler and the east coast enduro's are so darned rocky.
it's late - pics/details of her will be up tomorrow. nokon's, chris king and thompson...  mmmm... bikes are so cool.
later...
sologoat out.
