Those clean, classy graphics on the POC helmets sure do stand out from the demons and skulls and stuff we've seen from everyone else.
I would guess that a plain helmet from Troy Lee would sell better than any one of their other graffiti-like designs.
Something tells me that next season everyone else's graphics will imitate POC's. Mark my word.

T25 bolts? Why?
The first thing I do with, for example, a new XT crankset, is swap out the Torx bolts for gool ol' 5mm hex/Allen bolts. I don't want to deal with that shit in the field.
EVERYONE has a 4, 5 and 6mm hex key. Why change the standard? Next, someone will be suggesting a new front through-axle standard, like 15mm or some shit ; ).

I rode the whole Enchilada once without a stop to take a photo or anyone to do it for me. This article reminds me of how wonderful it was. Thanks.

Brule, mega props for showing the non-drive side on the bikes - so many people just show the drive side and then we can't see the suspension design if there are cranks on it. Someone knows what he's doing!

Many years ago Moab was touted as the one place you must ride before you die - every Aussie MTB mag had stories on it and we'd drool all over it. These days Whistler has the limelight.
I am very glad to have ridden at Moab though I was just blowing through Moab for a day (on a big tour of the deserts) and only got to do the Whole Enchilada and The Slickrock Trail. The W.E. was one of the best rides ever - just rolling and rolling and trying not to hit square edges on a rental bike. Thankfully I was alone so I didn't have to keep stopping to look at the views like everyone else. I'm looking forward to the W.E. recap and video.
It really is a place worth visiting, at least once. I would recommend hooking up with locals (always good wherever you go) and having at least four or five days to do it.
I would also recommend being VERY fit before you go. You will have a MUCH better time! NoteBoard

It still, is crap. Not sure. Was getting a little off topic but nothing drastic. I'll talk to a mod and see what they can do.
