    He said he was not quite 100%, so he was riding that day but he's taking it easy. He said his injury did take him out from riding for a bit.

    No wonder MW crashed on his first race run during Cal State - Fontucky!

    I think we found the problem. ;) :lol:

    Don't feel so bad Allison. You were #1 on my list. That's why I hounded..begged..you to go. Who in their right mind would pass up Whistler for a cousin's wedding (or whatever family business Dino had to do)?!?

    :Ouch: Dino you know next year you have to step up!

    Justin's ridden both the 50/50 and the Mag Lo-Pro's with his 5.10's, and he likes the Specialized pedals.

    The Sunday totally rocked up there. The trails were certainly no match for the bike. Me, on the other hand, that's a completely different story.

    I did run Wellgo MG-1 pedals. Couldn't take a chance with the Specialized:lol:

    Very Sic!

    This looks good enough to eat (it)... in the dirt. Makes my squishy look weak and puny.... I could get into a lot of trouble on this beauty.

    I've got to put that "Bike Lust" back in the drawer!

    No doubt, but those rims were also toast after this trip. I'll be lacing up some 823s next week. Tubeless from here on out!

    Winston- I knew EXACTLY what bike MW was riding in Whistler. I was simply hoping my question would coax "him" into posting pics of his bike! Looks like it (technically) worked!

    MG-1's are the shiz!!!!

    OMR- That Sunday is all you! Join the dark side..... become a downhiller!

    That "stoned-looking" guy is one damn good rider. He is also one of the best employees The Path has ever seen!:bang: Good luck with the injury.
