  1. Yip I am a lycra clad hard tail 80km 2500m kind of guy. Nervous of downhills and would rather go up than down and I am no racing snake. I have no idea what rad or gnarly means but I do know that the more I ride a bike the more I seek out trails where I can maybe do some things I have not done before...it is a slow progress. I enjoyed reading the article, comments and looking at the awesome pictures. Kudo's to all involved, it looks like a special discipline that tests the limits, and rewards that test with a massive sense of achievement and cameraderie as is clearly displayed in the article and photo's. Is that not what life is about? Finding your "thing" and working with it and allowing others to find their "thing" and working with it.......despite some of their "thing" that might not appeal to you......anyway that is what I think. Will keep an eye on the enduro thing......it might just suck me in.
  2. Thanks for pointing that out......ahem........I had such a good chuckle now....
  3. Nello: I have the same question so thanks for asking it.....and I hope I am not hijacking your thread. I have a hard tail and I have done most of the Ashburton and Trailseeker Marathons and some other events over 70+ km's this year. Is it an upgrade to go soft tail or is it a totally different ride? I am considering the change but I am not sure why. Softer ride? Better efficiency? More confident on down hills? What are the benefits? Will also appreciate some input.
  4. How brief........?
