Ride 2011 12 10-11

2011-12-12T17:27:00.000-08:00

The weather has been good, cold and dry so we have been getting in All Mountain rides. I had eye surgery last week so i didn't ride mid week last week however on the weekend we rode a lap on coconut then on Sunday rode a lap on C-Buster out of Indian river via Baden Powell then a lap on coconut then bridal path to the shop via Greenland and Bottletop. For this time of year I'll take cold and dry over cold and wet any day. I ran into some old friends along the way. Its good to have weekends off as well for the next week until I go back to afternoons.
Sorry no pics.

Ride 2011 11 28

2011-11-28T12:44:00.000-08:00

Some days this time of year it is cold and rainy, all you really want to do is head south to ride in places like Mexico or the desert in the southern states. Then the sun comes out and even a cold and clear 2 Celsius is an awesome day for a ride.
Work day today however we still got out for a little rip.

Ride 2011 11 18 Kona Saturi

2011-11-19T10:57:00.000-08:00

Workin at the Cove bike shop has its privileges, Dick From Kona dropped by A couple of their new 29er Full Suspension Bikes the "Saturi"for us to try. We rode 2 days, yesterday on Coconut A trail we ride all the time, then today we rode Richard Juryn Trail out of the shop. The first thing you notice is the bigger wheels feel like they roll better. The Bike climbed well, I had not rode the sram 2x 10 yet so it would take a few rides to get used to the gearing. In the trail the bike responded well in the corners it had a very nice feel, was very stable on the descents rolling over roots in very wet conditions. On our more techy trails it rolled along nicely In my opinion this bike will sell, for XC on the shore which is All Mountain in most places. I have rode A few other 29er's this last year at interbike and this bike felt like the better product (IMO). The price point is $3400.00 this bike is very well spec'd. I am not ready to give up my Hustler any time soon, however if I was starting out or looking to get into XC this would be a very good buy, kona has A lifetime warranty on their frames.

A few weeks back Chaz and I rode with Stephan From Germany he is the designer of this bike, (good Job Bud)

Ride 2011 11 15

2011-11-16T10:18:00.000-08:00

Good to Be Home

2011-10-17T19:41:00.000-07:00

We have been home for almost 3 weeks, It's sure good to be home.
Not that I didn't enjoy the fast flowy singletrack and epic views, the riding here is what I am familiar with, it is overall more technical . We also have roots and rocks in abundance. Don't get me wrong I would jump at the opportunity to travel to those destinations in the south and I will, I just love our riding, the change of seasons and sleeping in my own bed. I have about 22 gigs of go pro footage to sort through so stay tuned for A riding video of our trip. I apologize for my Hood River photos and my video got corrupt some how and didn't turn out, Hood River has become one of my most favorite destinations to ride, there is such a great riding vibe there and A great little tacoria. We have been getting in many laps all mountain riding I had one day at Whistler before it closed for the season it was A solo mission however I got many laps in. Steve McCabe is healing after his incident I wish him a speedy recovery. I am amazed at how many people follow the blog Thank You all and A Big Thanks to the Cove ( Chaz, A.T., Stuart and Daniel) You have expanded our boundaries, without You guys the riding that we have done in the 12 months could not have happened. Just Imagine what the future will bring.

Stay Tuned
Sincerely
Geezerhead

Chaz rippin up the singletrack.

This has been my all mountain ride since the fall.
This bike shares all the same attributes as its predecessor,however with the carbon seat stays it really stiffens up the feel when riding the tight technical trails we have in our area.

Thanks Guys for the Winter Whip.

2011-02-14T00:44:00.000-08:00

We have been riding 3 days a week, the snow has stayed away from most of the lower mountain which is great for around here. Our rides vary from about 45 mins to 1.5 hours. On work days I like to stay on the lower mountain and on my days off if the weather is good we have been climbing up to the 420 meter elevation which is the start of severed dick on Baden Powell trail. we have turned off on C-Buster the last few rides as it has been dry.

The video is me trying to keep up to Chaz, He is riding a Stiffee prototype and I am riding A Carbon Hustler prototype.

Well thanks to my bro I got a new point and shoot as my last one went through the wash and has never been the same since. I need to get out and ride but it has been below freezing and when you work outside it is hard to play outside when the weather is cold and wet. Last night we got about 10cm's of snow which is really rare around these parts

A shot of the city over the marina, from a few days ago.

Fresh snow outside our place about 3 minutes ago, better cover up my baby rhododendrons.

Today Brent from Ottawa Steve McCabe and Me climbed our way up to Severed Dick (good thing as the snow level fell overnight) then we did a lap on sticks and stones then back to old buck parking lot. The rain started about a minute before we were done so the timing was impeccable. We had a great ride I'll have some video to come later.

See you Next Time Brent

Eventually I will remember to turn my GPS off at the end of the ride.( sorry)
I have been riding A hustler for 2 full seasons. I didn't think I would like the XC as much as I do, however I find it equally challenging as any stunt or jump on a freeride ride.( must be getting old)
The bike feels really good, The first thing you notice is the stiffness of the frame. I find it amazing how A carbon seat stay can stiffen up the entire frame. I switched up my Maxxis crossmarxs to Minion 3.5 folding XC tire for the wet season, these tires feel more secure underneath you and brake better on the fast technical descents. The overall handling is similar to the original hustler.
The 3x10 speed shimano ratios feel good, climbing is better as the granny gear is 2 teeth bigger than my 2x9 speed. I'll post more photos when Steve McCabe can get out with his camera as my point and shoot doesn't work well in the forest.
