NotSoBigBen Posted March 10, 2014 Author Posted March 10, 2014 yes If he is NOT racing ... he can wear whatever he wants (UNLESS the bike park has stipulations of its own). Regulation only comes in at events Cool now to get that passed his mother
Grebel Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Mankini on Saturday. Got it. Don't forget the sunscreen
Grebel Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 Cool now to get that passed his mother Good luck with that. I get read the riot act when I take my youngster out for a cross country ride but that might have something to do with the state I brought him home in that one time...... Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

kosmonooit Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I've seen pro's wearing neck braces, spinal injuries can be expensive in many ways.

SwissVan Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Hijack I must get my eyes tested... every time I see the topic heading it on the quick preview pane it registers as " Killing a youngster...." Bijack
NotSoBigBen Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 Ben how were the shipping costs from Jensen? I'll check with him but it was not cheap!
NotSoBigBen Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 I've seen pro's wearing neck braces, spinal injuries can be expensive in many ways. At this point only the smaller stuff to be attempted but then again you know how it goes
CAAD4 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I'll check with him but it was not cheap! I figured as much. Pity, as they have some awesome deals from time to time.
Peach. Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Getting there and the last bits for the bike arrived yesterday. Everything ready to go out to Thaba for a test ride and it is his day off ........ BUT ...... it's frikkin raining again you could always bring him down to the National at Cascades this weekend I'm praying for no rain
NotSoBigBen Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 I figured as much. Pity, as they have some awesome deals from time to time. Struggled to source the hanger and seals for the fork so decided to bite the bullet and just do it!
NotSoBigBen Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 you could always bring him down to the National at Cascades this weekend I'm praying for no rain Maybe next time ...... hasn't ever ridden a DH course or bike before
patches Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I've seen pro's wearing neck braces, spinal injuries can be expensive in many ways. The majority of the pro's don't wear neck braces... or many other items of protective gear that we deem 'essential'. But I guess that's why they're pro's. What think is absolutely insane, is like a Nissan Trailseeker to them.
NotSoBigBen Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 @patches - he's gonna need some advice on setting up the suspension sometime, maybe he can meet you at Thaba to check it out when you have time and the sun shines?
