Goodbye To You, My Trusted Friend February 9, 2010

Yesterday, I farewelled my trusty Superlight frame. And while the words of Westlife aren’t quite accurate (for some reason, that song keeps getting stuck in my head when I think about saying goodbye), we’ve had a great couple of years together. We’ve ridden all around the country – two seasons of the Nationals series, one Karapoti, one and a half PNP Series, a six hour solo, a few 12 hour races, Queen Charlotte Track… not to mention all the training and riding in general.

But it’s time to move on. No surprises that the Superlight’s replacement is another Santa Cruz – one that has done many more races and in further places than my Superlight has ever travelled. I had already taken it for a test ride before I bought the Superlight, so I know exactly what I’m getting and how it rides, and I’m really looking forward to it joining my stable. Pictures and words to follow next week.
