Hi All,

Been a while since I've posted as I've been out with a broken wrist since April and only just now starting to get back out on a bike!!!

I haven't ridden much but still managed to spend money on my bikes as I've changed a few bits on my MsIsle and now its running an Identiti P-66 frame and few other bits and pieces. Heres a pic:

It rides like a dream and really good fun!

Also, have the Yeti DJ for 4x racing which I hope to be doing some World and Euro races to add onto the National Series. Only change I've made to that is now running a KMC gold chain.

Was anyone down Danbury yesterday? I was there with a mate and saw a few people riding but didn't know if it was anyone from here!! You couldn't miss us as we decided to wear our full race gear!!! hahaa......

Anyways, hope everyone is well!!!!

8-)

Ahhh yeah I remember, the one with SAS wheels, black spokes and mat black hubs?! I noticed the wheel set up as the guy i was riding with (The one that looked like a fruit salad) works for ID so notice their parts more!

I must admit it was riding really nice yesterday down there, it was sloppy but there was also really grippy once you drifted through the top layer.

You ride down there a lot?

Sas wheels, white spokes and rear black pro 2 hub.
Normally there every Sunday

Yeahh riding there yesterday was very sloppy, was expecting the ground to be more frozen, but sadly was still very slimy

Thanks mate. Really pleased with it as I built it trying to buy the best bits for 4x racing. Still not as light as I wanted but is really nice to ride! It flys out the gate!
