All round nice guy and mountain biking legend, Nick Craig has just paid us a visit.
Nothing too important, just a cup of tea (our coffee machine is rubbish, sorry Nick) and a chat, keep us up to date with what’s new and exciting from Scott (everything, obviously) and probably just because he’s nice like that.
Anyway, as ever He’s been busy having followed consecutive fell running races on Friday and Saturday with competing in the Merida marathon in Crickhowell, a mere 100km slog in horrendous weather. It didn’t surprise me that he looked so fresh and neither did it that his Genius was spotless. But it’s this that should be a lesson to us all; how to care for your bike.
Far too many of us would have left our bike in a shocking state, caked on mud and rapidly seizing cables. Nicks ride was spotless, smooth running and ready to ride. And before you whine about how he’s probably got a personal mechanic, or full factory support, he hasn’t, he just rides a lot and knows that a clean bike is a happy bike and a happy bike equals happy riding.
Simple really. Keep your bike clean, and it’ll work better, for longer.
