Hi Lee !
First of all, thank you for the help which you brings us by your website and your book.
I created an association (in France) and we plan to build a bike park of 4500 square meters with 4 zones :dual/pumptrack/dirt/freeride.
I look for software of drawing which would allow me to conceive the park in 3D ???
Thank you for your advice and a long life to your website

Hi Lee: I’ve been feeling too stretched out and too far forward on my bike. I want to get a shorter stem but I have a Cannondale and they’re pretty expensive, so I want to get the right one. I have a 120mm stem now. Not sure if this is a daft question, but can you recommend what length I should go down to? I was thinking either 80 or 90mm. I guess it probably won’t make that much difference which… Thanks for any advice. Simon
