  15. I am going for the pre-party, beerstops and afterparty, gonna be one SICK weekend!!! Maybe gonna use my Monsterbike...
  16. NICE!!! You riding sswc? perfect machine for that!
  17. I am looking for a nice chainguide any advise on where I can source one? Something like this...
  18. That is beautiful!!! Do you run a tensioner on there or what ratio do you ride?
  19. I've also ran into this problem... The work of a local supplier is to SUPPLY and carry enough stock so we as retailers can supply to the public... The customers doesn't **** on the suppliers head but on mine! To be honest how can you run out of 10spd chainrings, 10spd chains, 10spd powerlocks... We started our own shop with our own capital, no massive corporate sponser/involvement and thus carrying 10/20 items of each chainring or chain is not possible. We carry enough of everything to last us +-a week but if your supplier hasn't had stock for over a month of the basic essentials how do they suppose we keep clients happy... In that case I fully understand why some people prefer shopping from over da ocean...
  20. My new commuter... Cotic Cyclocross frame and carbon fork Shimano 29er wheelset runs tubeless with Conti Cyclocross 35c tyres I AM in love...
  21. I have a lot of these sleeves in the shop, if you need one just give me a shout..
  22. Definitely the toughest one I've done so far, heard beforehand they removed the sawmill climb from last year so I thought it would be easier, ya right...... I have have major respect for the guys that finished the Ultra, never mind raced it...
  23. Really enjoyed this race. Awesome singletrack about 80% of the whole route, nice and technical! Only downside was to arrive at the 3rd waterpoint (that we shared with the 25km route) with an empty table staring at me...
