Carbon goodness - nice. Looks very fast. I bet that is rapid round Epping in these conditions.

Thanks guys, loving the carbon, huge change from my old bike for those that saw it (and tried to lift it!). Even the brakes work :lol: Loving the lockout switch on the bars as well.

The kit does look awesome, shame I have to wear other kit in XC races (WXC) but ill make sure I get it out for the fun events. Promised the bike shop I'd get some pics - would be rude not to on the first day out ;-)

Ummm....not much compared to my old bike! Flies over grass, easy up the Bastard yesterday although it's dry and I've never ridden in anything but wet Epping so much easier all round.

Def some hill races coming up on a Friday morning :-)

How did your race go on the wkend?

I never even thought about doing that because it's like going from a dump truck to a sports car :lol: I'll jump on the scales and let you know. Dunno if you have the same spd's but you can have a go Friday - oh, and presuming I DON'T have to get up at 4.30am?! although sunrise from Pole Hill ain't half bad....

Well I don't want to miss half the day but unlike you I have no kids so you tell me, I can do anytime and roads should be fairly quiet.
