Favs of 2012
Ok so it’s the fall and you try to take some time off the
bike and do other stuff like Hot Yoga, Zumba, trail hikes and running, but my sponsors keep sending me awesome stuff to try! Luckily ec3d compression wear has also sent
me some goodies to test!!!
So what are some of my favourite new toys of 2012-2013?
Well let’s go Obvious:
The Orbea Oiz is a thing of beauty and has made the “off season” a lot
of fun.
I have been testing a lot of different bikes and wheel sizes
lately and it seems to be coming down to what bike do you enjoy the most,
because when you push them equally hard each bike gives you a fast ride!
Fox dropper
seat post: Unreal for those mountain adventures that have you climbing
up for 2hrs to get 30+km of singletrack descending!

App: Also new from Fox Racing for 2013 is a phone app to set up your
suspension. No more messing around, just
enter your 2013 fork code and use your phone as a scanner to check sag and get
recommended air pressure and rebound.
Easy and it works!
Ec3d compression: definitely the nicest and best working compression wear that I’ve tried with tights, socks, calves and more, it has something for everything, travel, riding and recovery and my gluts are looking amazing! ;-)
What special favourites are fuelling all this biking fun? My top 5
Kit’s Organics Cashew bar:
Simple ingredients and soo delicious
Luna Protein peanut butter chocolate chip
ClifBar Mojo chocolate almond coconut
Luna Chocolate dipped coconut!
Luna fiber strawberry Peanut butter. The name may not do it for you, but the taste and texture will!
and home made cookie medals for Interior Cross!
and finally Oakley Active wear. What a treat to have so much great clothes for lounging and working out!

Just a quick message of support from Smithfield, NB. My wife, kids and I live on Mountain Road and were pleasantly surprised to see you have family nearby here. Very cool, it must be a great boost for all the kids of the region that follow you.
All the best,
