Pinkbike Poll: Have You Had Your Bike Stolen?
i had 4 bikes stolen but the second one was brand new and locked behind the bike shop i worked at when a kid stole it and rode it home and dumped it in the woods. 5 years later i was a teachers assistant in shop class and i was talking to some underclassmen and it came up they knew who stole it and where it was, i went out there that afternoon and recovered it. Every steel part was rusty and the wheel bearings were shot but the aluminum frame on my Gary fisher "lush rush tool" bmx was still solid minus the stickers which i didn't like anyway. took it home fixed it up and traded it for a motorbike called yellowdick which ran like crap but now im a motorcycle mechanic so it all worked out

Poll: Do You Also Ride Moto?
Im going fill circle I started riding bicycles as a kid then went to spinning wrenches at the local bike shop while still in school, moved out and went on to motorcycle mechanics institute to expand my ability and fell in love with motorcycles. While bikes continued to evolve i was on other paths now I am getting back into mtb to stay in shape as i have not been riding as much after relocating to a place that wont allow motorcycle trails on public land because of noise. bottom line for me is bicycles and motorcycles are a way of life and its rewarded me with the best friends and adventures i could imagine and i have not quit pushing my limits yet. As far as bikes go for me the closest thing to a mt bike is a mini bike like a crf50 or a knockoff big bore pitbike its cheap to get into and a lot of fun we hit mountain bike jumps all the time with our lil' honda mini trails
'98 Triumph Speed Triple, '99 DR350SE (450kit),'97CR250 & '93CR125"pinkbike", '79 honda CT70 (160cc china engine) & '79 CT70 original w/plate......there are more but the rest are expendable i lost count of how many motorcycles i have but i just bought a Santa Cruze Nomad so I'm pedaling more now
