Got my new bike too the other day. I sold my old Cove Shocker for a good price so was able to get this on the NSRIDE ride leader deal for only a few dollars more - sweet!Fresh from our freshies at Whister, we (Rich has an new bike identical to mine) took them out the next day - Skiing and biking in some of the best places in the world - in one weekend! Ah, Vancouver ;-)
It rides sooooo well. I was really impressed. Norco has a bit of a crummy image here as the "Raleigh" of Canada so a lot of people turn their noses up but flipin' 'ell it really goes well and just feels so good to jump and flick around on the trail. I like it!
Obviously a first run on a new bike should be steady and run everything in, and check everything is working. The park, the tow-path, something appropriate.......so we did a high-speed five man train down CBC etc (world famous gnarly trail for those that dont know). It was most enjoyable.We even did our second run down into Neds Atomik Dustbin - a very rough trail that I've always hated - but not anymore - it was actually transformed into a fun-fest by my amazing new bike :-D to say I'm happy with it is like saying Elvis liked to dress up! Its gooood!
