Hi to all! My name is Chris, I'm 24 and live in Chester. I ride a GT i-Drive Comp (few years old now) but I'm looking at buying a Scott Spark 35 in the near future. I also have a GT Avalance 1.0 frame in the garage which I've yet to finish building. I don't go riding as often as I'd like but I'm looking to change that as soon as possible. Thanks to a recent job change a get a fair few weekends off now so I intend to hit those MTB trails! Unfortunately, as I've not been in the saddle for a while now I've lost my fitness and I'm fed up of being the the heaviest person in my house! I'll get some pictures of my bike and frame when I get the chance.

Hi Paul! I'll be coming on a few rides for sure. Only way to get fit once again. Yeah I think on any rides I go on I'll be near the back somewhere. Bike weighs the same as me as well with doesn't help matters. Ha!
