The Specialized Trail Crew: January 2010
http://specialized-trail-crew.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
ATTAKWAS - 1ST TEST FOR THE CAPE EPIC. The good news is that I finished, the bad news - it took nearly ten hours. I thought I better write a post to so my Epic partner does not dump me! So what happened. I think the Latin phrase, Diem Horribilis (I think that means a horrible day - though Latin's just not me) is an understatement. Check the heart rate and ride time screen shot. It basically says the following:. 1) Total race distance = Km 135 over 10 hours. 3) Distance of section in yellow = 13 km. 12) G...

Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 101 REASONS FOR TRAIL CREW. So the Stumpjumper Crew is chosen - I missed out - very dissapointed, but, hey if Specialized could have included South African's who knows?

The Specialized Trail Crew: May 2010
http://specialized-trail-crew.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
BAILING ON SPECIALIZED - MOVING ONTO SCOTT. The move onto a new steed has taken place. Last week I became the proud owner of a 2010 Scott Spark RC, just like the one above - even with the white tyres! A number of factors pulled me onto the Scott, and included:. 1) Good value on a 2010 Spark. 2) The superb support that ProBike, the Scott SA importers provided at the 2010 Cape Epic. 3) The interaction with Thomas Frischknecht and his enthusiasm for Scott and Ritchey.

HANGERS AS SERVICE INDICATOR. There are some indicators how to measure service. For Pizza delivery its about the time it takes. So what do we use for bicycle brands. The best question is "Have you got a replacement hanger for the rear derailler? Use the following as a yardstick:. A) Does'nt know what a hanger is - Don't touch it. B) Promises to order one, but it never arrives - Consider changing brands. C) Has a hanger in stock - Buy that bike! Monday, February 22, 2010. My Cape Epic Partner.

Go Green Spot - South Africa: September 2009
http://gogreenspot.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 12, 2009. Blackspot 1: Stormwater Pipes destroying a Mtb Trail. This is the first GreenSpot posting (or in this case a BlackSpot). The steps we take when identifying a spot are as follows:. 1) Geolocate the spot: Where in the world is it and place it on a map. 2) Say whats good about it (GreenSpot) or whats bad about it (BlackSpot). 3) Identify remedial measures: What do we do about fixing it or giving credit where credit is due. Pending the resolution of the issue of whether or not a...

The Specialized Trail Crew: CAPE EPIC 2010 - ABOUT THE BIKE
http://specialized-trail-crew.blogspot.com/2010/04/cape-epic-2010-about-bike.html
CAPE EPIC 2010 - ABOUT THE BIKE. So what would my weapon of choice be for future Cape Epics - definitely a full suspension. Based on the 2010 Specialized bike range, I am mortified to hear myself saying - It won't be a Specialized? Unless Specialized come up with something really special for 2011, I know what my 2011 EPIC weapon is going to be! Thursday, April 15, 2010.

STUMPJUMPER TRAIL CREW - MAKING IT RIGHT! In response to my previous blog. Great - Fantastic - That's all it takes! Specialized SA are not importing the 29'er. What a pity - time to take a plane trip? Oh, and about the Silverback - just does'nt cut it for me! Friday, November 20, 2009. Stumpjumper Trail Crew: Making a Mess of Social Media. Vance set up The Trail Crew to support the losers. Though there was lots of initial enthusiasm. Is disappointed and amazed at the choices. 1) Every one of the 76 entra...
