Following my most amazing Tour de Mont Blanc trip in the summer on my Truth, with a seatpost that wouldn’t drop more than 2 inches and balls bashed to bits, I decided that the time had arrived to look properly at seat dropper posts. I do so much varied riding on that beloved bike –… Continue reading »

2011 Review
I thought I’d take this opportunity to go back over a few photos from this year just so people can see the sort of stuff we get up to. It’s just a selection of some of the stuff we have done this year. We like to cover all the bases from general MTB riding to… Continue reading »

South Downs Way ride / Scott Scale 29 Pro revisited
It’s been a long time since I last did a big chunk of South Downs Way and when Earle rang me up a few weeks back to tell me about a charity event he is helping out with and the fact he needs to ride it first it didn’t take too much to twist my… Continue reading »

Pace RC104
I was keen to get a decent ride in on Bobster’s Pace RC104 before it moved on to it’s next home, so I persuaded him to let me have it for a night before it was stripped this week. It’s such a nice looking frame with it’s curvaceous stays and nice chrome touches. It has… Continue reading »

Scott Scale 29 Pro
I was lucky enough to go out to Switzerland back in July on the Scott Dealer trip. The main focus of the rides was the Scale 899 and the new Genius LT, but the bike I was most curious to get a go on at the time was the 949. This is Scott’s superlight carbon… Continue reading »

Demo day round up

Genesis Alpitude review
I’d been looking forward to riding the 2010 Genesis Alpitude, I rode last year’s and loved it so I was keen to see if this year’s model was as fun to ride. The Alpitude differentiates itself from the Altitude by it’s slacker angles, beefier tubing and longer travel fork. When you first lay eyes on… Continue reading »

Marin Attack Trail 6.8 review
This weekend I’ve had the new Marin Attack Trail 6.8 for company. I’ve been looking forward to riding this bike since I saw the new catalogue. I was a big fan of last year’s Attack Trail and I wondered how the new one would compare. There have been a few changes and some weight shed… Continue reading »

The ‘Naughties’ in bikes
Everyone else seems to be in their stride posting best of lists and the like so I thought I’d look back at the last ten years, what I’ve been riding and how things have changed….. Most notably I suppose at the start of the last decade I was still fairly heavily obsessed with XC racing… Continue reading »
