Bikes are going into paint on monday. Suspension should be here next week, then the whole thing should be good to go. video to come soon.....

Is there Chromag parts going on those bikes?

thom (Feb 17, 2010 at 12:24)

No, We got the same sponsors at the MS team. Fox/Shimano/Gravity.

You getting the new Gravity pedals? They look yummy.

Stash a set in your pocket for me....wink wink.........

haha, OK!

What's this DH course like for your race this weekend? is it tech, or basic?

northwestdhdad (Feb 17, 2010 at 14:13)

Uhm, nothing to lose sleep over- One decent rock garden- lots of turns and jumps- nothing intimidating. Honestly- its all fun and a good practice. My Shocker will be overkill............but if I can move that bike fast there- then Beacon I will be 'bookin'..............

thom (Feb 17, 2010 at 15:02)

Hummm, I think we are still set on beacon for the weekend. I am bringing a crew with shoveling in mind....

Cool with me- I don't want to be smoked on the first race knowing your times........a breath of relief. Tell Beacon I love her and will be there soon to worship the goddess.
