I got my bbg bash guards, one inner one outer. They seem cool, but the inner has the holes just a hair too tightly grouped to fit my truvativ or shimano crankset. I am just going to drill the holes a little wider to fix the problem. Hazard of a small business I guess. Quality control issue. I think I'll send him a friendly email to let him know what's up.

Yeah, it's a ripper, especially the s turns after the double drop about half way down. I love that part.

Yeah, probably right...I was referring to plane tickets, though.

For now, I would say just keep an eye on this....

All those guys were like all us guys Except when he busted out some wild trials moves, hopping on his rear wheel from one telephone pole to another...laying on the ground about six feet from each other...four times!
Hans has bike related stuff going on every day all day...photo shoots, endorsements, testing, and possibly even a beer named after him. He lives in one of the best possible places to ride, and just finished a DH run that ends up at his house. They have huge group rides once a week, with the likes of Schley, Lopes, etc. and they end it with a big BBQ.
His garage is full of different GT bikes, and Crank Bros. products, and he works real hard on his charity!

Excellent ride yesterday at Hamlin Beach.
Temps in the teens, and single-digit wind chill.
The sand was frozen solid so I was able to
ride the entire shoreline, which has lots of
little dunes and sandbars to play on.
I even pushed further to an old abandoned
hotel that was popular in the early 1900's.
It sits eerily silent on the banks of the big lake.
I was psyched to find a warming hut with a fully stoked
fire, and nobody around...the park belonged to me
as usual!

Good to hear from you snigs. I might be interested in this, but it's a bit early to tell for sure. I went to few Grundig and World Cup events back in the day. We never had to buy tickets beforehand. Maybe it's changed, but I don't believe these things sell out.

Nah, its an older Race Face Turbine, 2 + BBG bash
the BB is FSA Platinum, pretty cheap.
There are some older parts that are jewels for weight weenies.
The Turbine is not bad...

Don't need to spend $$$$ to go light, just gotta know what to look for. ;)

Yeah its not for bikers, its the locals. Some of them are really out of hand, they rip down the road at 70+. One of these days...

Ahhh the joy of country living.

Nice! Looks like there'll be a good crew! I'll start looking for tickets...

So far CO is great. Weather has been very mild. Managed to get down both Moab and Fruita/Grand Junction late last year. My first ride out here got caught at 7200 feet in the first huge snow storm. It was a race to the bottom...and the beer.

Skied at both Steamboat and Breckenridge so far, but didn't get the unlimited pass so I'll be going here and there this season. Locals say the conditions have been so so, but in general they are than better back east...

Looking for an airsprung shock for my cousin to replace his leaky RST that bobbs like a bobber (for lack of a better comparison). Looking to spend 100 or less. Lockout would be nice.

Still that's light! Carbon fiber? Was it $500+?
