Can I suggest some skills training? I mean, just look at the appalling valve/logo alignment there! Shocking.

Really like the BottleRocket, borrowed one for Blandford Bike Park two years ago and thought it was a 'hooligans' hoot - heavy though and no point putting anything light on it - just make sure its always pointing downhill great addition to the bike cave!

ah, the 'one bike to rule them all'

if it lives up to the hype that should just about cope, you are big enough to deal with it when coaching, my guess is its more likely to struggle at the other end of the spectrum (playing)

looks cool as......
