Rocks and Dirt: September 2013
http://rocksandirt.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 8, 2013. Enduro Needle Bearing Install Fox Shocks. My stock (2011 Giant Anthem X 29er 3) DU bushing in my Fox Float RP2 Boostvalve lasted 2.5 seasons which isn't too bad I guess. I've heard of serious all-mountain riders blowing through one or two DU bushings in a season with all that rock bashing and riding drops they do. Two pics from the Fox website: Top, typical DU bushing set up, bottom; the new fox low friction bushings (now standard). A trip to the hardware store and spending $2&...

Friday, April 19, 2013. Back Home to a 2013 Trek Domane! I had an absolutely amazing trip to New Zealand this winter. There isn't a whole lot more to say, the riding was amazing, the weather was amazing and the people were amazing. I can't thank the Peters family enough for welcoming me into their home and making me feel like part of the family. I enjoyed every day and I hope to be back again next winter! Posted by Cayley Brooks. Thursday, April 11, 2013. Weekend of Riding/ Exploring Lake Taupo Area.

Friday, March 22, 2013. Fishing, Zorbing,Thermal Valley and Wheelie Action! With a shorter rest/recovery week I had a chance to get out and about (Canadian accent) in Rotorua and explore. Rockslide on the steep hill. Down the zig-zag track. We took some time on Thursday to walk up into the Whakarewarewa forest to get a view of the Pohutu Geyser and the thermal valley. The geyser didn't put a big show while we were watching, but it can erupt up to 30m. . Some steam coming from the Pohutu geyser. And chec...

Rocks and Dirt: January 2013
http://rocksandirt.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 4, 2013. SPD Cleats review: BBB vs Shimano. When my Shimano cleats wore out I thought I'd save a few bucks and buy the BBB cleats. Here's how that turned out:. New Shimano SH51 on top used BBB Click and Go on bottom. Used BBB left New Shimano right. Shimano SM SH51 4 deg float $20.00 - $30.00 CDN. BBB Click and Go BPD-01 4 deg float $15.00 - $25.00 CDN. Both are made from hardend Cro-Mo steel. New cleats feel so good. Smooooth float, crisp engagement and easy release. Instead of c...About...
