Todays racing brought a whole new level of insanity for me and the boy
"you know something, i think i enjoy DH racing more than enduro"... Was his inital comment which we then sat down and chatted about for a few hours between runs.
So in the end the outcome was, we've cancelled the Southern Enduro series entries and he'll be racing in DH this year instead.
This also brings another level of insanity and his 150mm Specialized Enduro is being sold sooner than planned and being replaced with a full on DH bike.
He'll then ride my old Whyte T-130 which i'm getting back from a mate on his daily messing about rides, Ridgeway, cafes, woods... .but for bigger stuff, he gets a DH with 200mm travel and full on crazy geometry.
Why... well, why not... If we're going racing, we don't do things by half and we're going all in. There's a reason all DH racers race on DH bikes... because they're more suited lol.
So our current list for discussions.
