My guess is that Phil has a motorcycle background. Lots of Squids in
training in the knee dragging world, not the least of which would
include:

Not too far from my home town.

"A young motorcyclist who overestimates his abilities, boasts of his riding
skills when in reality he has none. Squid bikes are usually decorated with
chrome and various anodized bits. Rear tyres are too wide for their own
good, swingarm extended. Really slow in the corners, and sudden bursts of
acceleration when a straight appears. Squids wear no protection, deeming
themselves invincible. This fact compounds intself with the fact that they
engage in 'extreem riding'--performing wheelies and stoppies in public
areas. Squids wreck alot. Derived from 'squirly kid' "

(QU)ick, and (I)nevitably (D)ead."

Phil,

What bike(s) ya ride?

I figured someone would ask.

It's "Squid-in-Training" so nothing with a motor yet... I'm only 20 and am
swamped with school. No time for playing around with 0.5bhp/lb machines
quite yet I hope to start out on something simple... maybe even an old
Honda Nighthawk or the like. I'd like to move up to a 600cc bike sometime
in the future, but getting on a bike in the first place is the hard part.

And to answer your question more completely, a Giant STP2 and GT Edge.
