Might have to organise a meet up out there soon for any Melbourne based riders

Intense is still a great bike.

Cool, I'll stick to the blue tracks though.

Is that WTB Silverado seat?

So do I.
I competed in our club downhill race today on my Giant Glory.
Had a good day but on my race run I stacked it on a loose section, no real damage and I only lost 10 seconds on my seeding run so still happy with my efforts. Bit of skin off but had a fun morning.

Just pulled the trigger on a Shimano M8000 XT 1x11 groupset upgrade for my GT. Going to move the previous version XT 1x10 that is currently on my GT onto my Scott hardtail. :)

As above will foul the rear derailleur or possibly disc brakes too.

I used a bit of pool fencing leaned against the wall. Was a freebie too. Can fit about 6 bikes in a standard panel.

I got this Everest and a Kosciusko model for $5 off eBay a while back. :


Will move the Kosciusko on, but keep the Everest for my kid seat/trailer towing/pub bike - if I ever get a few more jobs done around the house and have some free bike wrenchin' time.

Groupset upgrade complete, I've gone from XT M785 1x10 to XT M8000 1x11, brake modulation is better and shifting is much tighter.

You'd be about the right age to have been racing my mate the ranga (tony wood). He came home with a few medals.

It will soon remind you, if you try and free wheel!  ;D There's been a few blokes go over the bars real fast, when they have gone to sleep.  ;D

Good on you.  8) I love Track racing because of the speed and sharpness that is required.  ;)
