Thanks : ) this thing is funny.. the body is so tiny but its a standard sized SLR lens. The build is fantastic.. so solid feeling as its all metal. Including the lens body.

Its not quite DSLR speed, although close when put in continuous. But overall the picture and video quality are suposed to be top notch. I may spring for the 200mm zoom lens but i hear its $800+

I am excited to try 1080p video and 3D of all things. But i hear something about only being able to watch it on a "sony" 3d tv, but im not sure about that.

Hahah nice man! yeah i want to get some ride footage on my R1.. Setting up a race vs a 650-700hp Audi S4

I broke my leg this year bad.. full break of tib fib and ankle. So im not sure when i can get back on my board. 20+ years on the mountain its a tough break thinking how long it may take to be able to ride well again. But it will be back!

Finally got the new SU's installed and she is running like a bat out of hell (as they say).

Here is the "before" shot:

My two sons (thanks, guys) and the "after" shot:

I may have made a mistake -- I let one of them borrow it for the night:

Timberline and Breckenridge are my two fav places to ride so far.

How is Snowshoe??? I was down there a few years ago building slopeside condos. Didnt get to ride as it wasnt winter but the place was amazing for mtn biking. Seems like a decent mtn, esp for being in WV. That place was in the middle of nowhere. It was seriously almost a full day trip to get to a Home Depot for supplies. Would have loved to have my Z on those mtn roads. I have over 20+ years skating/snowboarding and have luckily only dislocated my pinky skating a bank ramp in my early 20's, lol lame I know. Knock on wood, I have never broken anything.

For WV, Snowshoe is really good riding. It's cheap and has a great mountain resort feel.

Yup, that last leg of the trip getting up there is just brutal isn't it?
