Last year, I picked up one of the 250 Stumpjumper Classic re-issues that Specialized built for the 25th anniversary of the Stumpy.  Traditional Tange frame re-make and special run of original gumwall Ground Control tires.  Very nice modern (2007) components, although the crank was not fully appreciated by purists.  2007 cost was around $1,200 (pretty steep for an '80s rigid steel bike.)  Many were just stripped for the components but it's a fun ride and very tight compared to old ones so I'm keeping it as is.  Got it on ebay and the seller said it was kept at a beach house so there are a few light rust spots but it is otherwise all there and very lightly used. I remember falling in love with the Stumpy in 1983 and I think they did the re-issue right.

I had an aluminum King Kahuna.  The shop I fill in at is a dealer.

Just to keep the pics going....en route to the 3rd race in our state CX series last weekend.  High of 46 with rain for this weekend's race.

Used to have one of the first Jake The Snakes that rolled out of their doors.  It had been on order for a while, and never received an estimate on when it would arrive, so I talked them out of the 54cm demo they had on the floor at interbike.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Videos are all blocked at work, but if thats the video I think it is, they have another called "how to be a mountain biker."

"...learn the three major sizes of mountian bike tire, 26", 27.5" and 29"...once you know the sizes, choose your favorite, and be a dick about it!  Is that a 29er"?  Ugh..."
