Q-cat

Picked up the race kit today for this weekend rump. As usual the included T-shirt "Asian Size" so it does not fit. Luckily my son around to help model the garb thanks EJ.

Bike ride: Back to back track-read

Race Map

One important thing you cannot ignore when participating in Mountain bike races are track reading. As the term states you go to the spot and read the course. Most of the time organizers and track builders have everything in check a couple of weeks from race day.

Hamster product reviews: Sandugo Helikon

My Sandugo Helikon
Purchased Sandugo Helikon two years ago for the purpose of all weather Mountain bike sandals. Its primary duty to get caked on mud, get washed, repeat and rinse I was fairly confident on the durability of the product but what surprised me the most its versatility. From Mountain bike adventures, hiking, beach, and even mother nature worst floods the Helikon performed beyond expectations.

Tech Martes no.4: ClydEssentials wheelset

Ready for truing

For the second installment of ClydEssential dropping the bomb on my wheel-set. As a Clyde you are carrying a lot of weight ordinary wheels on your bike just wont cut it. Before building my second steed researched a lot about how a strong, stiff set of wheels can make a huge difference on twenty niner. So the main focus was on the rims, spokes, and hubs.
