    yeh, just couldn't be bothered with that anymore. Much simpler this way :)

    errr.... No :lol:

    The Spicy is great fun to ride indeed. Rides so nice and feels so much better than the hardtail on the DH track. I've got another Mini DH coming up at the end of Janary so it should be fun on a proper bike. I had to do the last one on the hardtail but I finished respectably none the less

  • The races are at FOD. After that the Gravity Emduro series should start so I'll be doing the whole lot of those. I'm off to the Alps in July too. Uplift weekend in Feb and lots of other stuff going on so a good year for me in 2012 as bikes go. :D

    If you're no about my local track, it's Kinver. There's a bit of everything there, freeride, normal runs and a good steep, techy one too. The only bad thing is that they're a bit short.

    Ahh nice one, never been to FOD before, it's on my list though! Out of interest, is it uplifted, and is there a train station close by? You should get yourself to Moelfre, cracking beginner downhill track!

  • There is an uplift if you want it but I don't know about the train. Moelfre looks good but it's a long way to go and it's not a place that my riding mates tend to go to so I can't bag a lift there. :(

    Ahh fair play. One to keep in mind if you get the chance though. I love it there!

    Hi hope you dont mind me asking I am currently very interested in the fork you have fitted and am proberbly going to buy some , was wondering what you think of it , whats the adjustable travel like does it ever play up ? Have a Fox f120 at the mo and really want more adjustment .
  • I thought I'd update this before it gets split and sold in the next month.

    It's been retired from being forced to ride/race DH over a year ago, before I got a FS but it's going back into service for an XC race tomorrow, so it's all good. :)
