Additional Info
Frame Protected by 3M Film, custom built over a few months with no compromise, except for the 2011 Boxxer WC pulled from my custom flatline pending release of the 2012 Fox 40 Airsprung Fork. Wheelbuild by Kinetic Cycles, testride tweaking by Cove Bikes. Started Landtrials and debugging just yesterday on Seymour Mountain. First lap down Corkscrew, Pingu, Pangor, and Empress was sketchy. Broke for lunch and had the Awesome Gents at Cove Bike dial her in. Second lap was amazing! Even though I was pacing myself severely, not pushing it, I still posted my second fastest time down Severed Dick. She just wants to go fast! Whistler opens in 12 days and I',m primed!!!
