 It should read 'Final Shred of 2014'. Due to a scheduled 2nd surgery this month I'll be off my bike the rest of the year. Definately not a final final shred

 Great vid. Also, for those who don't visit nsmb or missed it, when this vid was posted there a couple days ago it spurred some interesting discussion as a Mr. Mike Vandeman found something in the video worthy of activating his rant systems. If you don't recognize the name, Mr. Vandeman was charged a few years ago for hacking a rider across the chest with a hand saw (www.netpositive.co.uk/images/vandeman.gif). Figured the discussion may be of interest to others as well (nsmb.com/last-shred-chris-johnston). Again... the video was rad. Makes me miss dirt already as we settle into the snowy life here in Rossland.

 That dude is clearly some sort of fundamentalist nut job. Best just to leave people like that be - no point in arguing with them at all.

 Yep. Scary to think what a guy like this may do in the future. So much hate.

 Dude where does that Vandeman guy like to go hike? I'm in California too and would LOVE to go shred his trails. I would love it even more if he tried coming at me with a saw too.

 Since no one has said it.....hey man, good luck with your surgery. My only suggestion is to use cadaver ligaments/parts etc.... They had to go back in and re-do my elbow after the wrist ligament (used from my own body) ruptured on a sneeze-lol. Elbows are tricky and scary--but so worth it afterwards. It takes a while for the mind to forget about it, but knowing that the elbow is structurally sound again is peace of mind. Again-USE CADAVER-my only loss in the surgery is my grip isn't as strong and doesn't have as much stamina (so, I shuttle my friends the last couple of laps). Good Luck man

 Love it! The guy is the filmer, rider, producer & editor.
Way to go, why annoy your friends to film you.

 I know I am hopelessly unhip. but the nomad's new color makes me nauseated. I'd still ride it though.

 Not unhip man. Worst colors ever! If I was given the bike but couldn't ever change the color my first thought would honestly be, ummm?

Spent 2 hours cleaning my Nomad today. Ano green, still so in love.

 Heh, I don't think not liking something that's subjective is unhip myself. I actually have one in that color, and while I was "eh" on it at first but after driving into the shop and seeing it, I loved it. I can definitely see why you wouldn't like it though, it's a very love it or hate it color scheme.
