Specialized 2008 product launch

Malan and I are in Salt Lake City for the 2008 Specialized launch.

The biggest MTB news for 2008 must be the Specialized Stumpjumper S-Works. This bike is totally revamped and must be the lightest 120 mm trail bike available. Very close to 10kg's. It also come in a women version, called Saphire S-Works.

More news tomorrow.

Jan and Natalie from the Clearwater Trail Centre spoiled us with schweet singletrack riding last weekend. The Maverick Momentum Health team and other Maverick family members arrived at a cold and windy trail centre on Sunday morning. Carl, Piers and Thunders stayed over the night before, spending even more time on all the trails around the centre, while Johann, Aletta, Alex, Craig, Mario and the Bradley’s made the two hour drive early on Sunday morning. Jan and Natalie welcomed us and soon the cold morning air was forgotten while playing on the pump-track, on our way to the Beaver Creek coffee house. As you know by now we are just caffeine junkies with a fetish for singletrack. The wind was really challenging, but at least the warm sun and endless singletrack made sure we were all glowing in true mountain biker spirit after almost 5 hours of sublime technical trails. Check out the photo’s and make sure that you find your way to the Clearwater Trail Centre sooner than later. The ideal spot for some endurance Hill2Hill training.
