training mode - xt derailer - cross+marks

so that is it, complete training mode.
light work out over the weekend but focussing more on strength right now. jason and i did a short ride but fucken bee's nest hill, its a killer. jason couldn't make it up it, although his effort is just quiet amazing. i didn't really get that close at all. strength IS the focus. this weeks station runs will be hard paced to gets some build up for the dirtworks 50km. i could easily do the dirtworks, but i want to try and do it in a very reasonable time.

i have placed the xt derailer on scottie but i have to get it "professionally" tuned. i don't really know how to so i would rather it done correctly. it looks shit in the pic above but after a good clean up it is in great condition. couple of scratches but nothing to bad. i did have to get find a replacement top pulley wheel bolt, as the thread was stripped, but for $20 i am stoked. the replacement bolt was thrown in free from blackmans when i bought the cross+mark tires

scottie will venture with me tomorrow to the city for his service. i'm hoping to organise brad to do the oak's fire trail with me over easter.
