I've been planning a big MTB trip with my good friend Peter from Wellington, New Zealand for about 6 months now. I have mentioned it in other threads, but I figured I would start one for it.
He's got his tickets and I've built him a new bike for the trip. I'll be riding a 07 Turner RFX w/08 Talas 36RC2 and Pete will be riding an 07 Turner Spot w/06 Talas 36R. Pete is into XC and All Mountain so focus will be on technical XC/all mountain/light FR.
Any suggestions are welcome maybe even you can make some of the rides.
