Heroes and Villains

Long story short (under "Villains") - Neal's brand new Giant XTC SX got dented to b*ggery by a drugged ned whacking it with a metal bar to try and break the U lock.

He fought the law and the law won.

Unfortunately that leaves us with a ruined frame and no practical recourse.

[fanfare] Step up the good people at MTB-Distribution who we were starting to talk to about sponsorship ... and The Bike Chain, Rodney St, Edinburgh - both examples of the successful businesses spinning out of the growing significance of mountain biking in Scotland.

... and in a few days time, the running gear from the Giant should be happily residing on a spanking new - and very lovely - Viper World Cup XC hardtail frame.

This is the first step down the road of us both riding Viper mountain bikes and we're very much looking forward to doing so.
