GO GREEN-Green Oil

The shop got a sample bottle of Green Oil six weeks ago. I was really intrested, when I got the small bottle in my hand . The packeging is very smart, the cover is 100% recycled paper ("green on the green"). The description says: NO petrochemicals, NO palm oil, NOT harmful, NOT dangerous for the environment, NOT irritant. Hmm... that`s nice -I thought. I tasted it (because nothing harmul inside?!)... the taste is really close to some taste of vegetable oil. After a bit of getting acquainted with my new lube I put straite on my Unit`s chain. The test has begun.....
What`s happend after 6 weeks and 750km all conditions riding (NONONO... I have ridden much more during the last 6 weeks, 750km is completed with my Unit)?
Honestly? Nothing! There was no need taking care of my chain and chainlube, because Green Oil works brilliant. The lube is one of the best all conditions chain lube what I have ever used. I say it's all conditions, because if you use it in just dry conditions you can find it a little bit sticky (there is no dry conditions in England anyways...). The chain didn`t need to be relubed, didn`t get dirty or dry during the last 6 weeks. I think Green Oil is excellent stuff. I can reccomend for all cyclist whatever you ride on either off or on road or you are just a simple commuter, because you don`t only buy a great chainlube , you can also do something good for your environment.

Selle Italia Flite Troy Lee saddle-My new saddle has arrived

Selle Italia makes three different modells with Troy Lee`s designe this year. My choice is the Flite with the burning eyeballs!
I wanted to fit it on my Unit, but unfortunatelly I can`t. Because USE seatpost`s clamp can`t hold the thick titanium rail. Temporarily it is sitting in my cupboard, but I will find a nice place for it!
The saddle is really nicely made, the decals is perfect and covered with some special technology (the paintjob will not come off after the first ride). It`s weight is 199gr.

I am back.....but really!

I didn’t write anything in the last 2,5 mounths. I promise , I try to post more often!

What`s happened in the last 2,5 mounths?

- I had a 10 day traningcamp in Italy, Pesaro. I rode: 8 days, 1050km and 11870m ascent. It was a big fun with Dini and VasP!
- 19. April, Nightrider 12 night race. It was a bad event for me. I had to give up the race after 4 hours, I had some bugg. I wasn’t well…. 1,5 weeks aspirin treatment came after it.
- 21. May. Beastway! It was my first single speed XC race! I love it! I finished on 4. I missed the second one because it was too close to my 12 hour race in Bristol. But I am looking forward for the coming one 18. June.
- 7. June, Bristol bike fest 12 hour race. Nice! Big names were on the entry list. I came on 6. I am really happy with it!

I am back....

My last post was more then one mounth ago. I have had a lovely traning camp in Italy. Soon comming back with details! (I am very busy..... and my racing bike hasnt been built yet.)

New year-new team....Kona grassroots

Comming soon.... :)

New horse in my stable....88

Yesterday my new Kona has arrived. No... It is not one more racing spec lightweight bike... It is the Kona Eighty-Eight. Kona`s 25th anniversary bike. Kona made just 500 pieces. It is fulled with funky stuffs: Brooks leather saddle, back pedal brake, wood looking rim, nice black full mudgards, very wide handlebar with big chunky grips and lockable "fuel" tank for your small gadget.

As Kona says:
"The Kona '88 celebrates Kona's 20 years of building rolling thunder. Sounds manly doesn't it? Actually...we just humbly build great bikes for educated customers all over the world. "Rolling Thunder" just sounded really tough at the time...The '88 needs no explanation... just look at it. We're done writing now."
