Mine would be one of those portable bars serving some decent cider (like Thatchers Gold).

    Should have expected 'girls' comments so:

    I too would like to see more girls...

    The downside though I suspect, is that as the number of girl riders increases, the number of accidents involving male riders would also increase at a rate exponential to that of the girls (object fixation anyone?).

    Thats why I always take spare tubes and a mountain morph pump :D

    But naked girls and mobile bar would also be good as would mountain bike makers, component makers etc.. giving away free samples 8)

    Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:

    Would definitely like to see more girls riding bikes. Seriously, not in a pervy way.
    I've made quite a few friends through mountain biking, it would be good if more of those friends were female. Damned well impossible to find women who are "into" the same things as us bikers generally.

    At one ride in the last month due to overwork I'd settle for the trails themselves...
    Rock Lobster 853, Trek 1200 and a very old, tired and loved Apollo Javelin.

    But being male, and not having even a remote interest in shoes, I can't even remember the last time I was at a shoe shop :?

    There are some of us around!! (and yes, Mr Notax is a very lucky man :wink: )

    On the MTBing girls topic, my chain came off at Afan a few weeks ago - quite a busy, sunny, day - and about 4 chaps stopped to ask if I needed a hand :D Nice to see that chivalry isn't dead! As it was I did the chain myself - i'm not one of these 'don't you dare hold the door open for me' types, but it's not really difficult is it?!! :D

    My idea of clothes and shoe shopping involves www.foxeurope.com and my LBS.

    trails in ireland are a 5hr drive away so id like some closer to home. so just want the trails themselves.
