Cows go boing
Where will this new trail start and finish?
Not sure where it will start exactly its on the far side of mystic dh and goes into a newer plantation. Hopefully it will eventually go from the launch. Dirt Art where there working on hero, I stopped for a chat and asked about any new stuff in the works.

Lives under a bridge
Given all the hype I thought I might as well see whether it is worth it or not and started a build. Got most of the parts, probably going 3x9 since I have some gear in the spares box. 26" obviously. Frame needs a paint. Any thoughts on colour and process? Is it worth the trouble of powder coating. Where do I get new stickers from?



Any thoughts?
Building an Orange?

Moore will be jealous.

Some toys to install tomorrow. Impressed with the X-Fusion dropper, looks very nice and the lever is nifty.

And eBay flats @moorey linked in a thread a while back which look super nice for $32...

Have you got 5/10’s or the equivalent? Worried about shins.

The red adds cred.

And round tables are the biz.

I sense a fuckwits post coming....
Shin pads, at all times. I have a scar from riding up in the park when I first got my BMX cruiser for racing at about 15 years ago with plenty of experience riding flats. Fucked up a bunny hop over a small thing and took a very bad chunk out of my shin. Red line 90's beartraps with 5mm long teeth.

Holy shit, I remember those! I was the cool kid in school (briefly...) for havign a red set of those on my bike.
They are distinctive looking grips. I think ski poles also have something similar.

Pity Oakley left the grip market. They did a good job on them and the ones I've felt are all comfy. Now they just go for stupid prices on Ebay.

Modern flats have evil looking pins. I don't feel good on flats anymore considering I didn't like the idea of being clipped in once upon a time.

I have KKT not marks on my shins from BMXing along time ago too. It is so easy to take a chunk out of yourself.
