Hello Folk's!
My home terain is the hills around Voiron, Rives, Terre Froid, and Chartreuse.
I mainly ride crosscountry but the regoin has downhill rides that turn me into a freeride wnannabe.
I'm now riding on my third mountain bike in five years, after Schwinn, Lapierre I've now found my dream machine - Cannondal Prophet 1000, US model 2006. I rides good on crosscountry and it really kicks ass going downhill. Is a sweet bike!
I have been logging most of our rides since January 2005. I'll have to sort them and then I'll loading the to the site.

Yours Truly

Ok, I speak, three languages, but only write two of them. I'm from Sweden and I've lived in Toronto, Canada in the early seventies. I've been here in France since 7 years, first as an "expat" and now I'm more or less permanent. I work for a Swedish owned company in Grenoble and the working language is French, but most of the documentation, mails and comunication is done in English, (sorry but French is not the internation business language). If you find it incorrect that I write in English I'll run the texts true Babelfish, but that will turn it into a goofy Anglo-french.
Cheers //Erik

OK, I will try to write in english, but I don't promise that you will understand me everytime...
Else, you can write in SMS langage, like phonetic. Before, ask to Grand Master Chief.

(et moi qui pensait que Voiron se trouvait au Canada...)

I'm 100% OK if you write in French. I speak and understand French well, it's just writing that sucks.

Heij !

SMS language forbidden :evil:
Everyone is sill young on this forum, but this is no excuse to write this phonetic ununderstandable language.

There is no problem for you to write in english, but don't expect everyone to understand you...

BTW where are from in Sweden ? I go often to Malmö/Lund and tomorrow I'll go to Stockholm (my customer's is a Swedish company).

Tous les forumeurs ne sont pas forcément bilingues :roll: . Il serait préférable de converser un minimum en français. :wink:
