Thrunton Woods – 08/03/2010


Hello Dudes

Me & Ed rode Thrunton Woods on Sunday; I wasn't expecting all the snow! so we didn’t go right to the top; it would have been too muddy, so we stuck to the trees and had a cracking day out.

The DW 5 Spot is 13 months old, so it needed some TLC. I fitted an Enduro needle bearing for the shock, re-greased all the pivots\shafts, changed the cables & upgraded the front mech\shifter to Sram XX.

The bike was running so sweet, it just gave me soooooooooo much confidence, I was pushing quite hard on the downhill’s and having shit loads of fun. I’ve also fitted a Super Tacky Maxxis Minion DHF front tire, its quality on the roots & the Sram XX front mech & shifter is lightening fast :)

I absolutely love Thrunton Woods, the sections down through the trees are superb, there’s still plenty of challenging bits to master.
