Well the folks at Independent Fabrication have done it again and built this ultimate weapon for my assault on the Ultracross series next season. Kickass Ride - Wound Up Carbon Cx Fork and DT Swiss 240s laced to Velocity Rims (thanks Dave's Speeddream Wheels)- Last Of The Somerville Rides - Ti Planet Cross w/ BB30 - Now UCI Legal - Disc Brakes Mated To Paragon Rockers Means Single or Geared Option -
Yes good friends of the NECS, while my brothers of the Midwest have been snapping countless wrists and choo-chooing at trail of mass destruction at the Battle of Counsel Bluff, the members of the NECS are in deep preparation for an all out assault at the 6 Hours of Cathedral Pines. I on the other hand, or is that hip, have not exactly been idle either. In fact rehab has become so intense that our Japanese affiliates of NASA, between tsunami and nuclear meltdowns, have had a hand (artificial that is) in preparing the mighty C-Dubs for an all out assault on the 2012 season. Once again our we have trolled the backwaters of the internet to find this underground clip revealing the tragedy behind C-Dubs injuries and the subsequent reconstruction into the bionic ultra endurance racer.Now that the rocket scientists of Tokyo have finished the final tweaks to the implanted Ti hardware I am back on the bike and putting enough energy to power New York City into the efforts that will be required for the opening salvo at Middle Fork. With the 3rd annual Beer Cross only weeks away stay tuned.
A special thanks to the manufacturers listed below whose contributions have helped make it all happen.

The gang at IF made bikes so beautiful they could be in a museum. Bottom line is if you don't put a leg over one of these fabulous frames you are already at a disadvantage.
