New family member....

Statement:
I AM A MOUNTAIN BIKER, I love muddy tracks & the feeling of air when flowing down a single track!
Challenge:
Most of those guys who I wants to beat in MTB & MTBO races do actually train a lot on road bikes!
Solution:
After loooong consideration and late nights in front of several 100 German webshops, web review sites & mails (thx to Erik & 2 x Zsolt for answering all my stupid q's) I decided not to leave my self behind a with a competitive disadvantage......so may I proudly introduce my newest weappon in the fight for reaching this yrs goals.....and spend some real nice training hrs:

Mr Scott




postings on first steps, how we are, where we go & how we do will follow, but after yesterdays first 100km I have to admit...it's not that bad to be on the road.....for a short alternative, I STILL AM A MTB'er!!!!!

& today we took a ride on Ms Scott, just to secure family peace/avoid crises due to jealousy;-)
