Odds & Ends

A bunch of stuff to catch up on here.

I finally got my big bike a little while ago. It’s a Rocky Mountain RMX R2, with a few key mods. Upgrade on the fork to the 888RC, an MRP tensioner, and a lower cockpit courtesy of ChroMag and Freedom. A big shout out to Pete for hooking it up, and to Gabe at Cove Bikes for keeping me on the trail. as soon as I get up to speed, I’ll be doing a review on not only the R2, but also the Cove Peeler and the Dark Scarab.

CBC’s Canada Now did a story on the bike issues on the North Shore this week. Ooooh. National coverage. Here Sharon, Jeremy, Barb, and Harley get interviewed by CBC, on CBC. I got a few words in (as usual), and Barb and I rode a few lines for them.

Also on CBC this week…(insert your own joke here).

The CBC Ripper was a blast, and a bunch more support went into the NSMBA coffers. If you haven’t experienced a Ripper yet, you too should come and feel the power of the dark side.

CBC also has some new funding in the form of a government grant. Jeremey Power will be working on the trail all summer. Here’s a taste of things to come.

Some more Pennsylvanians showed up. They seem to be getting it figured out.

That’s it, you’re up to date.
