No huge boosters like K. Its all fast, loose and steep stuff. Super fun and good practice for Southridge I'm sure.

Topanga State Park is closed due to fire danger until the 5th.

New ride is...Up Westridge, down First Crack, up Sully, down Sully.
Meet at 10am on Bayliss.

If time permits I might head to the Whoops for a bit.

The bike has already seen some changes.

Selling the fork and brakes, stem has been swapped for a 50mm. Not sure why a bike with such a long top tube would come with a 105mm!

Probably put my 66 on the front or maybe a Lyrik or 55.

DHX-A will more than likely get replaced with a 8.75 x 2.75 DHX-C. The 2.75 stroke shock would up the travel from 150mm to 167mm.

Does this mean your Roco is for sale?

no more dh bike? what are you gonna hit bike parks with?
I still have the AS-X. My long term plan is to replaced it with a Cannondale Perp or maybe a Giant Glory.

Unfortunately Mammoth won't be open for 6-8 months so I have plenty of time to save my pennys.

I'm also thinking of tossing the 66 on the Enduro, that might be interesting.
