As the summer heat starts to build and the trails dry up, we are faced with Dust. It can get in places that that 
I don't think that even mud can get into. Or I just have become a freak about cleaning my bike now that I ride a carbon one. I just got a Taurine 1 (Cannondale) 22.5 lbs. and getting lighter. Is seems like I became a clean freak at this time. I never cared but it is nice to know that every time that you go ride your bike is almost showroom clean.

I just started riding again after a year with a bad knee. I had tagged my cranks on the same rock 3 or 4 rides in a row. Then the massive pain that wouldn't go away. It is always a slow road back from any injury and the mental part is the hardest. I found out how much I loved to ride when I couldn't and when I started riding again it is slow and in control. Back to the hardtail, tried and true.
