Cove G-Spot
$500 CAD2008 Blue Cove G Spot. Bike has done its share of trail riding, needs a bit of love, but a great bike that you can throw yourself down the Shore on. A heavy bombproof kind of ride, made by a great company. I'm looking to get something a little more suited to my style, and this sucker is just a bit too beefy for me. Shoot me any questions if you have'em, thanks for checking out the ad. Comes with a spare chromag bar and used 4 piston, 8" hope brake set.

Norco Jubei 2 29'er
$250 CAD2009 Norco Jubei 2 29'er. Bought it from Oak Bay Bikes in Victoria as a demo and upgraded the brakes. She's an entry level 29'er with some bumps and bruises for sure, will need to be tuned and trued and all that good stuff. Make me an offer, I have too many bikes now and have to get rid of one. Thanks all, happy riding!

Video: I'm Faster Than You
This video was pretty funny. Though I have to admit, I'm tired of gay jokes in these videos. It makes out sport seem Hick and backwoods. http://higherunlearning.com/2012/11/11/cant-you-take-a-joke/ this is an interview with Jason Alexander after he made a gay joke recently. I think it gives some great perspective. We always talk about how we want to grow our sport, and we want the public to embrace our activity and allow us to expand our riding areas. We do lots of great things with proper trail maintenance, take your kid riding days, there is lots of forward progress which is great. But every time I watch a video on here with a gay joke I feel like its setting us back, no forward vision at all.

http://www.granitegearstore.com/Alpha-Dog-Pack-P220C4.aspx
We got the green one (because you know, colour makes a difference ;)
We use this pack every day with our dog, if it's a walk around the neighborhood, or a hike in the bushes. Even after daily use, this pack is in the same shape we got it from the store (even the zippers work as well as day 1). It was $60 at Capital Iron, and easily worth every penny. Hopefully you can give it a go Mike, and I hope it works out as well for you as it has for us!

I had this pack for our Dog a while back, and it really is not a very high quality item. We found another one shortly after me moved to Victoria (at Capital Iron), that is amazing compared to the one reviewed. The pack fits much better than this one, and is a much higher quality material, far more durable. I can't remember the brand name right now, but will post it once I get home and see it. If you have the right pack, it works amazing, and I certainly know my dog absolutely loves it.
