I'm heading up to Snowmass for a conference this coming weekend. The last time I was up there (3 years ago) I did 3 or 4 XC rides but this time I wouldn't mind checking out the DH course.
Couple questions:
1) Is the lift access running throughout the week for DH?
2) Are there any local...
Our team has been using the Velocity Gear Armor for a season and will be using it again next season. For me it was about time to replace my well worn (and used) Dainese Gladiator suit (which I absolutely loved).
The VG suit is nearly identical to my wife's old Dainese safety jacket. I...
I've got both a Minoura Mag Trainer and a set of rollers. I find that the rollers are much more stimulating for me to ride because I have to concentrate on balance and smoothness. It seems like an hour on the rollers is a nice workout, whereas an hour on my trainer is torture (boring...). My...
Oddly enough the Woodbumble I had was set up with an '05 Shiver on it. Even with the front end up fairly high I still couldn't get it up in the air. The only other issue to be aware of is the an e13 guide will fit, but may require a small amount of shaving on the top portion of the guide to...
I actually had a chance to ride one this past weekend. I was pretty impressed with the bike even with it not set to my riding weight or style. Seemed very stiff laterally coming into corners. I didn't really notice as much brake-jack as I had expected, even coming from riding an Iron Horse...
Eric Gruber has been rocking it at the Ontario Cup races this season. Weird concepts going on with that bike. I believe that when you apply the rear brakes the whole rear suspension system locks out. Can't figure out why that would be advantageous. Does sound like a tank for sure.

I'd like to send my best wishes to Sven and Anke. I've only seen Sven in Synopsis but he seems like a great guy (very funny). Even my wife knew who he was when I mentioned his situation to her. Stay strong and get well soon.

I agree. Got a set in my tool box, cut both of my comp 24's last year and love it (I say that like I can tell the difference...teehee!!). I just wanted to feel semi-pro for a bit of time.

Let us know what answer you finally come up with with respects to the Fox shock hardware. I am thinking about getting an old RC pushed and using it on my SGS.

I remember seeing that last year...OUCH!! We had fun in practise trying to make it through the course with 3 guys. We had some serious handlebar overlap. I even grabbed someone else's bar...(totally by mistake of course :sneaky: ) Too bad I suck at jumping...

Actually there exists a very non-invasive early screening test for prostate cancer. It is called the PSA (prostate-specific antigen) test. They look for this specific marker in the blood. Under normal conditions the prostate produces low levels of PSA. However there is an association between...
I think that it is important to note that the term exercise induced asthma is often missused. I am part of a large respiratory research group in Canada so I've heard far too many talks about this topic.
Be sure to get a proper diagnosis from someone other than your GP. Sputum analysis is...
What about the song that plays during the awards and recapping of the World's footage? It is a girl singing, but for the life of me I can't find it in the credits.

Can anyone comment on the sizing of the Addidas Hematomas. I've got two pairs of Addidas shoes, both 9 US and will probably go with a 9 in the Hematomas but want to be sure that the sizing is comparable amongst different shoe styles. Any comments would be greatly appreciated...

Miko,
I'll be there at the Blue Cup. I probably be at Blue riding this Sat. on Showcase picking my lines. As for the post at hand, I just built a new rear wheel on a Ringle Abba SOS hub that I picked up a little while ago. So I've got the two 165 mm x 12 mm rear wheels. I think the Ringle...
