365 Days of Reign - My 2nd Year on a real mountain bike
Last month marked the second anniversary of my Giant Reign 1, my first serious mountain bike.
365 Days of Reign - The Second Coming is a record of all the MTB trail centres/regions I've ridden in the past 12 months. I went as far north as Daisy Hill in south east Queensland, as far south as the Cascade Hut Trail in the NSW Snowy Mountains, west to Newnes and for the first time I headed overseas to the simply amazing Rotorua Redwoods in New Zealand.
I would like to thank everyone who was a part of my second 365 Days of Reign, not the least of which is all of you that join in the online conversation.
