    Mosquitos and annoying gnats.

    I got 2 great road bikes. Been bored of riding on road and developed a bit of back pain lately and sitting static for hours makes it worse. I can ride MTB without back pain due to upper body movement and also miss technical XC. I don’t have problems with bugs at Lewis Morris and really haven’t...

    Mosquitos and annoying gnats.

    Yeah. Trust me I try to go at my max speed. Averaged 6.8mph for 11 mile loop. This year seems pretty bad with mosquitos. Usually start riding around 10-11 AM but will try early and see any difference. Gonna spray back of my Jersey before I put it on to see that helps as well since I could not...

    Mosquitos and annoying gnats.

    Third week in a row now got bit by mosquitos while riding at Ringwood. I didn’t even have a mechanical or took a long rest other than a couple of quick breaks. Usually spray exposed skin, shoes for ticks and front of helmet for gnats but it’s been brutal past few weeks. They are biting me thru...

    Mayhem Mountain Bike Race Postponed

    You can write off the whole season. They are expecting the peak of the infection around May-June and tail will linger into Fall. Without a vaccine all types of racing is dead. Go out there solo and enjoy the trails.

    29er Tire Choices for H2H endurance series?

    Thanks for all the replies. Rode Ringwood, mostly the race course(at least what I remember from 10 years ago) past Sunday. There was some soft energy sucking spots. I was able to manage most of the course on Aspens but they are definitely not the right tire for this place. I felt very slow due...

    29er Tire Choices for H2H endurance series?

    Hey guys, Been out of the MTB scene for awhile and riding mostly road. Got bored and want to do some endurance XC racing for fun. What is a good tire choice for these race series? My new bike came with Maxxis Aspen 2.25s. Rode them last week at LM and they were fine with expected sacrifice on...

    Hey Liong, these pics are for you buddy. I did not have time to take more pics during each stage because we had to meet a minimum 15km average speed for each day. Otherwise we get kicked out of ranking. It seems pretty easy but on day 3 I think I climbed about 35-40 miles. Some of the...

    I'll take some pics when not suffering :cry: or when I fall off the bike from altitude sickness :cry: Today was the hardest day for me with 4 repeats of Bear and reversing back to Tiorati and welch beach. I think I need a 30 or a 32 cassette in the back. 28 is not cutting it after 2 days of...

    #6 for the year is done. It was the longest and most vertical ride I've done ever. I wanted to get 10K vertical but fell little short. I should have done one more hill repeat by Alpine. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/192027503
