Well, it depends on what happens between now and then to be honest. I didnt buy it specifically for the Mega - I just needed to get my ass onto a Full suspension again, as i have a passion for Hardtails! I would hope that through training and practicing for the event taht I will make decisons on what kit will be best closer for the time. i would love to say - yes im gonna have a super sweet, stronger, newer bike - But at the minute - I just dont know. Also I have been approached by a couple of people who may be interested in sponsoring the "52 weeks" documentary, so that could work out and may help me with gear etc.
