High Octane Frames Arrive!

We're all really excited as our Scott High Octane frames arrived yesterday!





Its the start of our second Christmas season at the moment. First of all 3 of our 4 high octane frames arrive and then I hear news that the 32 tyres that Kenda are providing us with arrived later that afternoon!

Being the 4th and being that I'm not in Whistler to put a bagsie on my frame, I guess i'll be waiting for the 4th one to arrive.. that or the others have a conspiricy theory going on.

Anyways, you can click to see more about our Scott High Octane frame build or info direct from ScottUSA at the title link above!

Cooool!

2006 keeps looking better and better.

Snow tastic!


After the rather dissapointing snow season that Whistler suffered last year, I though that being back in the UK wouldn't be too much of a problem to overcome... how wrong could I have been?!

Whistler has had regular snowfalls of between 30 and 60 cms since the New Year. Sounds pretty average? well, when you add this up, its some 321cms or 10.5 feet of powder that the lucky Whistler snow bunnies have been having the pleasure of!

Heres me in the UK being responsible... and where are my colleagues! yes.. enjoying the superb conditions and quite slopes that are a result of last years disapointment!
