Move it on over...

After nearly four years of blogging on Blogger, I'm moving this over to Wordpress. I've been using it on Velominati and SPOKE, and like the look and usability of it better.

So from now, both of my readers should bookmark brettok.wordpress.com

It might take a while for me to get it up to speed.

This blog will still be archived here and linked from the new one.

Cheers.

The Tracer

K-Man now has his new Tracer built up with a slew of new bits, after initially swapping the older stuff from his 5.5. So it's full XTR, Stans ZTR Arch rims on DT 240S hubs, Thomson stem and post and Fox Talas fork. Sweet. And it comes in under 27lbs... that's gotta keep him happy. Looks hot, K-Man!

It'd probably be a heap of fun to ride on these trails.

We (Mikey, Josh, Josh Junior and myself) got out for a pre-run of next weeks PNP race at Wainuiomata, there's some real fun singletrack out there. Check out Caleb's new helmet-cam footage of Spoon Hill, and other cool stuff including Makara and a downtube's eye view of a Fox fork in action here.

Brilliant...

No need to say anything, just watch and enjoy.

Hey!

This monkey's gone to heaven... They may be older and fatter, but Frank and Kim's voices still make every hair on my body stand up. Can't wait (20 years is long enough).

Mmmmblog

Food (and beer) fuels cyclists, and I love both. One of my cohorts over at Velominati, Jim, has a wife. This is not extraordinary, but what is cool about his wife (Jess) is that she is a well-respected food writer in Seattle. And she has a blog. It is full of really delicious-looking recipes, and some good writing to go along with it. Gotta try those banana pancakes...
