55 is what i run for Some hardpack races… it all depends on your weight, im 66kg and i'm running around 25 psi in the snow, because there is very little that the tyres are going to snakebite on. depending on your weight and the volume of the tyre you can run more/less, the trailraker has very little volume, so you may want to run it 5 psi harder to account for that. 35 psi should be fine, and the trailrakers will be perfect for the snow right now!

Il have the kettle on ready for you. 😉 I doubt you'll be able to take your bike on the top half of the course, but the lower half should be fine.

Xan, that app is lying…

and Alek, walking back from steve's old place is the best way…

I thought the singletrack was going to be cleared as well in some places?

are you going up tomorrow aswell? d'you want help?

I wish i had some motivation… looks like im Soloing the puffer now!

4 new cross marks that arrived when autumn finished, 1 RR, 1 panaracer razor, 1 medusa, 5 nevegals, 2 cinders, 1 city jet TT slick, 2 Ice tyres,

and yet i need more!

use gt 85, then dry then oil simples….

We didnt get much last night, if we got any at all higher up…

leg seems better today WOO! gonna take it careful between now and the puffer…

i was sledging yesterday, when we decided we didnt like the igloo we made, we started dismantling it, i tried drop kicking it, landed on my left leg, curled under my body, and now i can hardly walk… my tailbone hurts front the sledging.

Cheeeesekate, i can take your soloist place, my e-mail is in my profile…. thanks!

the niterider's are crap for reliability

NR, could you check your e-mail please.

You need to download quicktime 7.2 if it doesnt work for you….

metcheck are forecasting 5 degrees again. i love how bad that site is…. 🙂

You'll hear all about it a week saturday. It is a thrilling tale though. so your entering as a pair swiss? where are you going to camp?

your wrong, this is the perfect weather for turbo training… 🙂

i wish i was made of more elastic than i am, im in so much pain, my knee and tailbone are preventing me from walking or cycling today.

fantastic.

deffinately a spooks episode…. dont worry, the blonde one sorts it out.

up the cats back will be a push at best, and down the way your front wheel will probably get buried in snow and you may flip, if your not very cautious.
EDIT: enjoy all the snow thats falling as i type.

i would be heading out today, would have joined you, but my knee and tailbone are wrecked from sledging, resting up.

medusa front, medusa rear.

cheeeesekate, i may be interested in that solo place. could you hold onto it for me until tonight, and il confirm if i can/cant take it. thanks!

Dont say anything bad against giant swiss. Ours haven't broken, your spesh has! As for my bmi… il have you know its actually on the too low side of normal. I suppose someone has to balance it out…. 😯 🙂

Edit: is calum up for a ride tomorrow?

hah! its not healthy "niterider", thats why i used "history" like in the movies 🙂

d'you know if there will be work happening on the course this week, i cant help next week, im in school….

could it be from the massive amount of salt that will be in the chain at this time of year…?

no, i looked at your e-mail in your profile, i suppose it could still be one of the others, but ben never calls me young padowan, and i know you have a history of MTB forums…. unless its callum…?

hmmm… Andy? Il talk to you tomorrow if your in the shop about teams for the puffer….

Niterider, do i know you? i probably do… im the saturday boy in squarewheels… so i've probably made tea for you at some point.

epicyclo- from the start of the 08 puffer down view rock is actually all ridable exept for the first little climb…

XC3 for me too, rotors look better.

hah, it wont be melted, but us locals should have ridden a groove that anyone competent on a bike will be able to ride…

EDIT: just read the troute's post…

look better. hah
edit: what else do you want except for it to roll faster and the strength not to be compromised….

nope, its harder to bike in. was fun the first few days of sledging, now its been here for weeks im getting annoyed.

EXACTLY! forecast is for 5 degrees the week leading up to the event!!! WOOO!
EDIT: just checked metguess and apparently it will be around -7 to -10 leading up to it… Hah, i love that site. http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/14days.asp?zipcode=IV14

i wish we only had 7 inches of snow here.

thats not good. im sure it will be fine on the day…. 😯
