Picked up a new noob mountain bike-a Cannondale F9 C02

[Wild Bill]

So far it handles really well! Did 8 miles starting out. Switched the tires out to thicker armadillo tires with a kevlar weave and had the tubes slimed (goat head thistles here are a BITCh on bike tires). Did I get a good starter mountain bike? I'm less than a mile away from a 25 mile paved bike path along a river and didn't want to break the bank. I'll upgrade the bike later if I really get into mountain bike riding...

Can't go wrong with Cannondale.

hehe. it was a hackenslash. I don't have all my tools set up the way I want them on PS (on a different laptop), so I BSd my way through. I tried to be as Wild Bill as possible on that one, but couldn't figure out a way to include beans or buttseckts.
