riding the don this afternoon, likely with a newbie friend. anyone in for a relaxing tour of the intermediate singletracks? If some of you come out im happy to race around a bit whilst the new guy catches up.

I was riding completely rigid yesterday, and I have to say it rocks serious ass. You lose a bit of control if you pick the wrong line on rocks/roots, but for everything else Im pretty happy, climbs like a goat, tracks beautifully on downhills, and feels lovely all around, and shall I mention I saved nearly six pounds off that crap stock fork I had.

Need fatter tires though. And new wheels. And bars. And levers. And shifters. And stem. And fork. Dammit.
