Bush is CHEAP BASTARD...Buy Your Own Bike BUSH
Seems that he has been taking tens of thousands of dollars in free bikes, outfits, shoes and the like from those wanting something out of him, even if it is the bragging rights that come with saying the president rides your bike...any one here want to bet that OTHER MEMBERS of the BUSH MAFIA are riding around on FREE, top of the line Cannondale Mountain Bikes? If Americans EVER needed a reason to STOP BUYING the Cannondale brand, THIS IS IT...you stinking filthy lobbying bastards. Screw the DAMN PRESIDENT, how about donating a few dozen of those top of the line bikes to OUR TROOPS who have returned home? Let George's DADDY buy him a new bike for Christmas, he can afford it. Is it the policy of Cannondale to reward a man who LIES to send troops off to die?
In the article, the author tries to convince us that Bushy Boy is quite the Mountain Biker...give it a rest George, you are not even close. I'd bet even money that dust flies out when you fart, and if you think you're really the biker, meet me at the slick rocks in Moab Utah on a nice warm June day...this former San Francisco Bike Messenger will whip your ass, and show you just how pathetic you really are on a bike. Come on, show America what you are REALLY MADE OF Mr. Bush...you think you are a hot shot rider because Cannondale outfits you with a FREEBIE bike most serious bikers cannot afford....BRING IT ON. Winner walks away with the other's bike. All your cronies, and paid Secret Service members telling you you're quite the biker does not make it so...we knew you were a panty boy when you ducked out of going to Vietnam. As to Cannondales, claims that they would not do anything to market their gift to the president...sure, this story JUST FELL INTO THE PAPER.
Bush transforms into avid mountain biker

WASHINGTON - Swapping his running shoes for bicycle pedals, President Bush bid adieu to painful runner's knees and transformed himself into a devoted mountain biker — and high-tech gearhead.
Even with elections looming, the cyclist-in-chief made time earlier this month for his ritual mountain biking on weekends. He changed into biking clothes and muddied up his newest ultra-pricey mountain bike given him by a manufacturer, a $5,000 Cannondale with a custom red, white and blue paint job. The 2007 model was put in his hands even before it had been shipped to stores.
Such a passion it is: he also went biking Thursday while spending the Thanksgiving holiday at his mountaintop retreat in Camp David, Md.
"He's an avid rider, a fanatic," said Matt Mannelly, president of Bethel, Conn.-based Cannondale, who hadn't publicized but confirmed what he called an unsolicited gift to Bush a month ago. "We also made it very clear we wouldn't do anything to market this. To give it to someone like the president, who's actually going to use it a lot, means a lot to us."
Bush already has two Trek mountain bikes, one worth $5,500, the other $2,700.
