Pace prototype

JP and I took a trip over to Brighton last night to meet up with the Tuesday night ride from Morocco's on Hove seafront. Having had previous experience of these rides I knew I was in for a kicking, but rumour had it Adrian Carter of Pace would be present with his prototype steel 29'er. I decided it would be rude not to go and take a look and, of course, sample some lush singletrack as well.

A selection of Morvelo riders were there as well as Rob Dean and Jo Burt, I knew it was going to hurt, lets face it a Yorkshireman on a singlespeed was not going to be slow!
