Wes....I'm not laming on your top speed at all. All speeds are relative....

Unless I get 3 flats in a row like last time, use my last patch, and have to fill my tire with water from a puddle one pump barrel at a time so I can ride the last 20 km home like last week. Where is this bad karma coming from??

Wes... what's the Enduro format? I wouldn't mind trying a race or three in the next year. I'll need to be baby stepped through racing. Can offer up some kitchen skillz as well. |

That way everyone gets a night lap also. Night laps are the *****!

word. Well, I'm definitely in for doing a team thing if we can get enough peeps. Sounds like we have 4 people already somewhat interested just since I mentioned it this morning.
keith: now price me up a single-speed misfit 29er with a suspension fork of some sort.. Or, at least just the frameset. I know you mentioned them before.. also: a test-ride would be nice. :P |
I'll ride if I can find a bike to ride it on. Night laps sound wicked.

And I'm also down for some running track riding somewhere around the city. |

Sounds fun....I'm not well geared for lights, night laps are BLACK. I'm interested though, I can do dusk and dawn lappies (OR MAYBE borrow my buds lights) :lol: hmm I wonder if The Star wants to sponsor a team.
Where was that nice track near O'Conner? It's here somewhere in the pages of the past in this the most impressive of threads. Keith wanna go at the last 100m ? :lol: |
35 watts!
