I had some mates up there today, I could just ask them if there was a sketchy looking dude on a horst link with Manitou suspension...

I was there yesterday. My bergamont isn't quite Horst link. It's got a concentric rear axle pivot.

But it's the best handling bike I've ever ridden and an absolute weapon up Cardrona.

Rotorua seat Whareroa Fatm on Friday. Getting settled on the Trance 29 and flats and it’s very fun.

Anyway was leaving the car park and a couple were having a big barney. I pull over to see what’s going on. Dude his trying to settle his girlfriend who’s fully overwhelmed and worked up.

Got out to make sure everyones ok and settle things down.

Buddy’s saying just give me the keys and let’s go home if we don’t the police will come when boom, 3 riders come down the road and they’re all off duty cops. Very efficient unit at gettingthings sorted.

Pretty glad to see them as I had no idea about what my next step was after getting out of the car!
