I grew up in Sheboygan. Which is effectively its own world compared to the rest of the State.
Ever been to Fond du Lac?

I bought my first mountain bike tonight and the first bike I've owned in over 10 years that wasn't a BMX bike. It was at the local bike shop and I looked at it Saturday, liked it but ultimately left. I stopped by today and the owner says "oh I was gonna call you. That's one of the employees bikes so I could save you some money of you pay cash. $160.". I said done let me go get my truck.
It's a 2001 GT Aggressor. Pretty basic but in like new condition and good enough for my needs right now.

heinous.
I have made peace with most designs that I didn’t initially like, but i’m with you. I cant imagine coming back to this post in 5 years and saying “ah, indeed it is a future-classic”.
it harshes my mellow as well

Nice pick up, looks like new! Planning to ride some single track or just for cruising around?

It will largely just be cruising around but I have a few buddies that are really in to single track and have already tried to loop me into a ride. I've done some single track on borrowed and rented bikes and it's fun but time consuming for something I can't take the rest of the family to do so that'll be limited.

Looks like a good deal.
I ride a similar vintage mountain bike. I've had it since 2000 and have replaced 70-80% of the parts on it since then, so now it's basically custom built just the way I want it. It's built like a tank (30-pound hardtail). It's mostly an urban commuter now, but it's nice to know I can jump some curbs/ride down stairs/whatever and it's not gonna flinch. Plus, I don't look like some spandex-clad fitness freak on a road bike.

I will never forget you chattering your way down copper harbor then blowing random parts off that thing!
Good times, good times.
