Super nice! That colour! I would love one of these but I worry it would be like owning a classic car and that it would have lots of quirks that would be annoying. I’ve heard multiple stories of the geo varying from frame to frame

we went the week before the EWS was in town. So did one day of riding in Pietra Ligure. Out tour had Privateer rider Matt Stuttard and the polygon rider Dan Wolfe on it, so that was pretty cool (them boys are fast, no surprise!), then the remaining time was at Finale Ligure.

Its the second time i have been and its utterly awesome. So many good trails, from flow to full gnar. All the uplift services are great, as are the guides. Proper good times. A beer on the beach after a hard days riding is the cherry on top!

We were lucky to be able to squeeze it in before the second big hit of covid.

We were scheduled to arrive that same weekend! One of our group works on site, so couldn't risk it. Kind of wish me and the others had just risked it. Was supposed to be in Madeira in december too! What a year 2020 has been! Glad you enjoyed it anyway dude. My girlfriend went to Finale 2 years ago while I was recovering from surgery and had an amazing time. She never shuts up about it!

defo get there when you can.

We did Madeira the year before, and that was equally as good. Although the trails are further apart in madeira, so more time spent in the van compared to Finale.

Here's my ride, properly mudded up after a round on the local trails. For the sake of discussion I wish I could say I wanted to tweak the setup, but it's pretty much dialled!

(Okay I do want to swap the saddle for something a little shorter and more compact, but that's it...)

Foggy day for a ride in the SF peninsula.

This thing looks great. The brown saddle sets it off.

Snap with the Enduro! This one is my girlfriends, she's just got the ohlins coil shock and has been loving it so far. I'm personally not convinced by the RXF forks but she is happy with them. The Ibis is mine and i'm just toying with the idea of a 1.5 angle set maybe and an 0.5 offset bushing as well. The stock 66 is fine for most riding but from what I hear you don't lose much by going slacker. Also gonna see if the hype is real for the Oneup carbon bars as I have a scaphoid problem that causes me pain in my wrist.

This is the 2018 model I bought second-hand last year dude. Think Evans is the sole seller of Norco in the UK now.

Looks like the thread could use more hardtails, 26, and pink Razz
