^^Dan, I've been meaning to ask you about that bike. What are the specs on it? It looks like a multi-speed which is something you don't see much on a dirt jumper, but it also looks like it only has 2 or 3 chainrings on the rear cassette. And also, what's the purpose of having the seat tilted backwards? I used to race BMX when I was a kid & had my saddle the same way, but I never knew why. I just did it because I thought it made me look cool

Woo, XT shifters! From the brief test-ride up and down the street, these shifters are amazing. Crisp and clean, yet very smooth shifts. I am in love.

^ Well if we ever get the pics and vids from Blair, there should be some good ones of you. The creek/road gap at Sun Peaks should look good.

Slow day at work so my partner and I conducted photo ops while on patrol. Nothing to spectacular but I thought I would share. I ditched my work bike for the day and took out my GF Wahoo I got about a month ago, I must say so far it’s not a bad bike defiantly since its rated a beginners MTB.?.

I toasted the Conti Mountain King rear tire on my Cliff, so I decided to replace it with some bigger tires: Panaracer Rampage 29x2.35. WAY more rolling resistance on the road, but they feel much more stable and absorb more shock on the trail, especially the rear. And of course, had to test them out on a small drop...
