MMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm! Not sure where to introduce myself!

Hi, just joined up today, I've looked but maybe not very well, normally you have place to introduce yourself.

But anyway I'm a newbie, and just off to pick up my GT AVALANCHE 2.0.

I guess I'll look in later and ask lots of dum questions, beware!

Hello, post all the dumb questions you like, theres some seriously knowledgable people here. What some of these guys don't know about bikes isn't worth knowing.

Cheers for the welcome folks, have my GT now. it's 'Well Good/Lush' I believe that's what the young folk say nowdays?

I'll take a few pics tomorrow, a bit dark when I got home tonite for them.

Now just have to wait for 'Summer'!

Only joking! Spring!

I seem to of posted a small version of my pic, try again.







I've picked it up second-hand for £200 quid, v-good condition, a good price I think.

It has Maxxi 1.5 slick tyres on it, I guess they are best for road riding, I also have the orignal tyres as well.

I'm not sure what the 3 sets of numbers mean under the bike (serial number/frame number).

It was brought from Evans in Hendon early 2009, so I have emailed them for any info.

I'll be going out this weekend just for a quick try out,

A good tough all rounder to get you into the fun world of mountain biking.

Now all you need is a light so you can go out in the evening! I'm going out with my club from 8 till 10.30 and then a pint afterwards!

I have some lights, just not fitted them yet. :oops:

Also do you think I should be riding on the Maxxi Slick tyres that are currently on or go to the orignal tyres that came with the bike?

Any advice would be great.
