Yeah, put it on the list. It's amazing.
So much riding to do over there!
Thanks mate. I feel like some of it was too low. But it's all learning how to use the GoPro.
This was my method.
I ended up buying a compressor from Bunnings and stupidly didn't have the prestier valve adapter.
Ended up just sacrificing some CO2 canisters to the tubeless bead sealing gods.
Worth it. Esp seeing as you can get them pretty cheap nowdays from either ebay or if you don't...
Sadly no, I flew out the week before McGazzafest (RIP) and the DH Championships.
Really wish I could have stayed.
That's the hardest part... I've always just gone down for the snow but OMG the riding is amazing!
Just got back from a trip to Queenstown with the brother in law for his 40th.
What a great place to ride!
This is a vid of us riding back down the Missing Link Trail above the Queenstown bike park.
What a CRAZY ride/walk/push up the mountain to get up to the Saddle.
This was the first trip...
If you do go to queenstown I'd highly recommend you contacting Amy from Queesntown Bike Taxis.

She can also help you organise accommodation, pickups and shuttles.
Tell her your riding requirements and she'll help you organise the itinerary.
If you love rock...
After coming back from Queenstown Bike Park and falling in love with the steep flow of Vertigo and also Rude Rock... you're 100% right.
I'd LOVE a flowy steep switchback trail down the mountains. Would be amazing.
Also... great video!
Years off but you're still a pinner!
When I was starting I found I was getting sore arms from a few things.
1. Gripping too hard subconsciously. Needed to remind myself to stop doing this.
2. Brake lever positioning. Adjusted them down so that it was a much more natural position and that helped.
Could try that to start off with.
I welcome the new pedal assisted ebikes into the mtb world.
If it reduces the barrier of entry into the sport then good.
If it means more people on trails then it also means more people advocating for more and better trails.
If it means that more mates can come along on rides because...
After seeing some of the spectator YouTube vids now out of the jumps and other sections, it kinda makes me wonder what the broadcast team were doing.
I get there was limited access but man, we missed some EPIC down hill action on a seriously awesome track.
Would love to see it in the Olympics...

"Ok everyone, this is Ben Bunny McGowan, he is the reason I got a 2nd run yesterday and I just chatted with him about his injuries. He has 2 broken vertebrae and a dislocated shoulder, (in his words"all fixable") he was doing @adbrayton a favour by taking his...
That track was brilliant.
Difficult as all heck.
Some major offs and a real challenge for the best riders in the world.
