  1. I have been chosen for the Eastern Province A-Team to ride at the Mazda
    Drifter National MTB Cup #2 in Cape Town this coming weekend!

    It's my first ever national. I only started training seriously in January.
    I'm sooooo excited!!!

    I am riding a AMP B4 with Noleen Crosslink fork.

    An AMP B4 with a Noleen, huh? Are AMPs still available out there?
    Interesting.
    Good luck in the National!

    I found the frame without a seat subframe. Got it cheap. At that time I was
    riding a Haro Escape hardtail (this was 8 months ago when I started riding
    mtb)

    I made my own seat subframe and just loved the bike... then I saw this
    noleen forks on ebay, read the reviews... well... I don't ever want any
    other bike, unless it's an extralite X-Link. I hate telescopic forks, tested
    sids, fox f80rlt, manitou skareb, manitou black platinum. Although some of
    them are lighter than the noleen, I love the solid feel of the noleen and
    the maintenance. + it looks cool, fits the strange looking frame with my
    home made subframe.

    I have test ridden scalpels, hardtails - many bikes.... I am just so
    confident on this setup.... I'm fastest on this bike, and I can ride the
    downhill's fast.

    Yes, I get checked out with my old school set up, (mostly in amazement) but
    this was the initial design for many new bikes to come. And it still is a
    great bike.

    bye bye
