Cascades update for 01 Jun
Perfect. The rain overnight has settled the sand so it's nice and grippy everywhere. Pulled out a 1:01:45 4 Gates so pretty happy with that! Now for the sub 1 Hour...

What is best first race to aim for?
Greetings,
New to the sport but rapidly becoming addicted to the point that, even though it's only very early days, I am keen to participate in an event in the foreseeable future.
My goal would only be to complete not compete, then working up distances over time.
I would welcome any advice or opinions on what events might be most suitable for a novice such as myself.
Thanks!

New wheel - recommendations please!
Having recently toasted my rear wheel, I'm looking to invest in a new set of rims so I'm looking for recommendations for 29" that I can run tubeless and will also put up with a slightly clumsy 95kg rider! Durability over light weight is probably my priority.
Also interested to know where you get your wheels built as I lack the skills to transfer my existing hubs etc over.
Thanks

Wanted: WTB 26" wheelset
Looking for a pair of 6 bolt 26" wheels to stick on my hardtail that's been promoted from gathering dust in my garage to wet weather commuting duties. Not sure how much I want to spend so stuck a $100 stake in the ground. Let's go from there
Cheers
