the thing about stopping distance doesn’t really help, the driver on the major road should not have to stop or slow down because somebody pulls out just out of the safe stopping distance.

thanks guys, much appreciated!

get than van RC, its nice to be able to turn the LSC all the way up if you do long climbs.

hmmmm, I do have the monday free as gf will will be working that day, can you ride out to decent trails from the town and are they well marked and easy to navigate?

arrrghhh! I’m going down to Laguna Beach for a long weekend on friday, I don’t want to hear there is good mtbing there!!!

microsoft word? it lets you write stuff and save it…

usually they fall off all by themselves!

hope you’re going to build some ladder bridges with all that!

to be somewhat helpful, if your up for a bit of a road trip these guys seem to rate croatia and slovenia, might give you some ideas. http://www.sacredrides.com/tours/croatia/alpsandadriatic/

or go watch eden lake and you’ll be scared to go into the english countryside.

its not exactly a top mtb destination.

wow! it’ll be like actually riding a bike… or you could actually go ride a bike in real 3D!

I would move into the shed, looks far nicer!

ooooh! After posting 3 hours ago that my order was still processing I sent an email asking whats up and its now magically updated to dispatched! lets hope the right stuff arrives as it’ll be a pain in the ass to send it back from Canada.

i reckon its exactly the same as an xbox with xbmc, at least when i jailbroke mine i used xbmc to play torrented stuff.

but there are lots of NAS boxes (Netgear readyNAS for one) which have iTunes server software, so the ATV would be able to interact with that.

in that case… cool!

We’ve been loaned one by Apple for evaluation. Should be sorting it out tonight, so drop me a line if you want a summary. Ideally, I’d like to stream from a NAS in our house, rather than having to switch on one of the MacBooks, but I’ll let you know how we go

Can’t see it looking at your NAS unless its jailbroken. in conventional form it will only look at what is in your itunes library through your computer.

well my order placed on friday is still processing 🙁

braking bumps by September will be horrible especially on a hardtail.

nice! had one of those too, great bike and still looks good today!

if you have an ipad with the apps you need to watch iplayer etc, can you not stream from that to the apple tv using airplay? not sure if that works with all the apps but would be cool way of using these apps on the big screen.

same here, ordered on friday, still processing on in stock items 🙁 maybe they’re too busy buying stuff with my CC.

sorry but it does look hideous too 😛

somebody has to have torrented it as it sounds like such a fine piece of television.

having the shock in line with the chain gives the bike a very particular feel, very different to the Yeti and Marins (single pivot and quad-link)

I’m thinking the horst style chainstay pivot contributes more to the feel than the shock being parallel to the chain.

I’ve never seen this but i feel like i should download it.

mmmm, spinach and cheese salad

Arrrrggghhh, I figured it must be fine now, I just placed an order earlier with my CC, I will keep an eye on my statement and will see what happens!

good to hear some positives, just ordered some elixir 3’s with 203 rotors after about 4 years with a set of juicy 3’s. they have been great but are finally starting to play up a little.

joined, i’ll be the one with the location you’re all jealous of 😛

sell them both and buy something without a shock that has the potential to crush the family jewels in a horrible way and also doesn’t have one of those silly seat tubes.

😆 like!

I just need to work out where the trails are…

Park around Dempsey and Mountain Highway, ride these trails http://www.gutsploder.net/maps/Fromme.htm

whats the project, led’s directly in the bar?

Here’s a random extra question… can you get a cable that will connect a smart phone to a car stereo that has a USB port but not a standard jack input to listen to the tunes?

My galaxy s won’t work with my stereo’s usb port, it can work with a standard aux cable, although it will charge through the usb, i just chuck my music on a usb stick and keep my phone in my pocket.

too few carbs affects the brain I see 😆

fromme or burnaby mountain are accessible from downtown by seabus/bus, they all have bike racks. Cypress or Seymour you will need to find people to shuttle with, try nsmb.

Is it worth changing as both are single pivot so I am assuming they would both feel/ride very similar

I think you know the answer to this already.

jedi, think it was just poor line choice on a section I had always walked before, but its affecting me on other stuff i have ridden before, think i just need a few more rides.
