Some dude was selling a bike very similar to this at the bottom of Whistler today but he had Totem forks on it. I hear the frames are cracking. Anyone else hear about this?

dont know about cracking but theres lots of skuttlebutt about tube dents from small rock impacts being kicked up off the front tires…

me thinks next years frame will be heavier, as they will no doubt increase the tube thicknens for these bikes..

sure is a wicked looking bike thou…

I skinned a knuckle filing this video. Which tree was it that got your hand? Surely you must remember.

Oh yeah I know exactly the one, it's about 2 feet to the right of the 'x' here:

Serves me right for taking the easy route - I was racing my girlfriend down (she was taking Expressway) and got a bit too zesty on the tiny little double rolly thing that's just there, popped a manual down them and went just that little bit too wide. Bah!

I figured it would be "better" if I just posted something to think about, kinda like a riddle, than posting the name of the trail, you know. Nothing beats a bit of a creaking in the white fluffy stuff between your ears. ;)

:lol: I was wrong. But I guess I better leave it at that. Props to whoever is able to ride the Shore at the moment. No matter what trail - as logn as it is the Shore.
