Ive got mavic scree shoes also goretex for winter riding. They are completely waterproof the only water that gets in is through the top. I got a pair of mec mini gaiters for winter riding keeps my feet very warm and dry. with some line socks under woolie boolie merino socks.

All my rides are ride up ride down . Ive only ever done one shuttle ride. That was Neds a few eels back.
Never really thought about but I guess I have been secretly enduroing too.
I hope I'm not going to get an intervention. too embarassaing..

It weighs about 10lbs with about 1.75 litres of water. It's an 18L pack it still has tons of room. So far Ive used everything at least once except my first aid kit.
My digital shock pump actually weighs less than my old analog pump did.
I like to tweak my bike while I'm on rides, great way since you are already out, might as well adjust sag lever angles etc ..

I think I'm missing duct tape in my pack. I ride alone a lot on the shore so I plan ahead.

Great race today.. Good to see Ferrari fighting at the front again.. hope they keep it up..

I think Ferrari is quietly making progress, and may give everybody a surprise…

Sorry to hear about your accident KPerras.. Healing vibes for you.. cheers.

Fantastic.. Well done..

What size is that Explosif?

I was thinking of getting one but I am having trouble finding one that will fit.

Size large - 19"
I'm 5'11" and fits just fine

(There is a large one in PB now)

(Don't get a fat bike if you don't like talking to people, everyone wants to check them out.)

Lol, true. I rented a Specialized FatBoy this week in Whistler, and had to chat with almost everybody I saw on the trail.

2013 Kona Explosif

Love this bike.
27.5 wheels and 68 HT, it rips.
The raw steel finish looks great.

Upgrades:
- Tires: Maxxis HR II 3C
- Cockpit: Low rise 780mm bar. 60mm stem

2014 Trek Slash 8.

Upgrades:
- Maxxis HR II 3C
- XT Cranks

Probably the most versatile bike I've had. Great on steeps and technical. Drop the front travel, and climbs like a goat.
Love the 27.5 wheels

There are a couple of fat bikes for rent at Comor.
Where would be a good trail to take them for a quick ride?
Do they allow bikes in the Lost Lake trails in the winter?
Thanks..

That's cool. But what are the results. It does not look as though the chin bar failed, but would it pass whatever test standard there is? I assume yes but it would be interesting to see how it stacked up against a DH helmet and Motocross one too.

The chin piece seems to flex a lot towards the face. But maybe this is a good thing, as it absorbs the energy of the impact? I don't know.
You are right, would be interesting to see how a regular full face takes this test.
