Yep, it's Scandium, with a GXR downtube and my own blend of tubing throughout. Really love the ride - super responsive, heaps stiff between the headtube and BB, but is still compliant everywhere else. 1600g on the dot too, which is nice for such a big frame (20" ctr to top, 25.3" top tube)

It's a miracle I had no mechanicals as I was putting the thing together the night before!

We came 19th out of 34 2-man teams, so we didn't do too bad for our first 12hr race. Actually, we would've come 11th if I'd had done my 6th lap like I was planning, but the lights I borrowed ran out of juice half way through my 5th lap and I had to do half of it in the dark!!!!

Injuries? One crack of the knee on a rock, and a leg that looks like a prop from a horror movie - a bocky bush jumped out and tackled my leg. (Thanks heaps to the guy that pulled me out, too. What a champ.)
