so i took the cross+marks out today a quick run. first day of the easter break it wasn't raining so i fanged it as hard as i could going down the windy bends from home to yellomundee MTB track. MAX speed of 58.7 down hill and the cross+marks really move on tar. turn right and into the track.
it has been nearly 2 years since i was last down there. weirdest thing is i would be almost the closest living MTB rider to the track. well the track is bloody amazing. in the two years it has improved 10 fold - and i also think the amount of rain has helped. i will definately be doing some kind of racing there this year. not sure of which day etc.
the cross+marks are just amazing. they stick like shit to a blanket on the corners and the climb really well. best $80 i have spent for some time.
i did the testing for time etc. and from what i could work out i think i would have been in about 7th place in D grade??? who knows but i will find out soon enough.
the XT back derailleur worked well. i need a better bike!

Awesome Matt, ran into a guy today at loftus (fucking fun!!!) with your tyres on a new Giant Trance, he seemed to love them. Forget the Scale 40, go all mountain dual suspension! It's definitely the way!
in an ideal world i would have both. i would love scottie to have a full make over with better running gear .... then look at picking up a genius MC-40 or 30
