Oh my Burner,
Oh how I see
the future laid out
so Burner-beautifully before me.

My sweet, shiny, sparkly lovely Burner and me
will be forever together, my Burner and me
I need you, I want you,
what else need I say?
You will be mine; I covet you oh!
how I adore you my
splendiferous trinket of joy

I am yours, you are mine
And together we will travel
From this world to the next, then beyond to the other.
(might need the 4” plates with Romic tho)

I will care for you and share with you
The splendors that we see
My Burner, you will be mine,
burning, oh sweet burning for me.

Now that's love!
I sure hope you get at least as much ride time as you had to script that, you've earned it!

Cheers, Gears and Beers!

Blah blah blah

Enough of the odes to love, let's see it already. A picture's worth a thousand words.

an explanation of sorts

I wrote that "poem" (if thats what you could call it- creative writings never been my strong point) in a particuarly good mood after seeing my accountant, who had the good news that I'm to receive a nice fat tax return because I was taxed too much last financial year- yippee.

I consider myself a experienced mountain biker and know what I want, and I have been drooling over what to get to replace my venerable ATX 990 as a 24 hour solo machine. Reading the Turner board has made the decision easy- fully active, servicable bushings, great C/S, friendly and helpfull dudes on the MTBR Turner board etc etc. I had thought it would be an impossible dream to get one but now it looks like a reality.

The finished bike though will look like a bit of a dog, as I can't afford to buy new parts and thus will be stripping stuff off my other two MTBs to slap onto the Burner. Forks are the big issue, I have a pair of heavy 99 Z1 alloys on the Duallie and some flexy 2000 Manitou SX-Rs on the hardtail. Im going to put the Z1s on and eventually get some Marathon S' (which I guess are almost the same but a tiny bit lighter with ETA).

After all the years of buying and servicing (and now not being able to get) replacement bushings for the ATX990, and flexy frame issues, I am very much looking forward to the Burner. Anyway I'll stop crapping on now and post pics when its all done.

Cheers. Rob,
