I've become very interested in XC racing lately and I am now looking into purchasing a XC rig. At the moment I am looking at a '08 Rocky Mountain Element. From what I am told, they will be available around Sept 20th.



My plan is to eventually start racing XC in addition to my trials bike competitions... basically for cross training. I like the fact that there are so many more XC races to choose from. Trials bike comps are generally spread out all over the country and you normally have to wait weeks or even months in between each comp.

This past weekend was the Belle Isle trials bike comp located in Richmond Virginia. The weather was real hot, but it was still a great event. The sport class had a nice turnout and I ended up with a 6th place finish.



I am now preparing for the next competition that will be held in Rocky Mount NC on September 1st. Can't wait!!
