This has been a long time coming, but as promised, here’s a little piece on short-term nutritional strategies. 

Here are some pretty pictures of the ROTOR (RCK) cranks and an interview with Mike Ponting, who sells and distributes them. 

The final round of the Midlands Specialized Super Series at Eastridge, Shropshire was a catalyst for some superlative performances from three of the TORQ-tuned. 

The ‘Bionic Brazilian’ Marcos Schier (No Sponsor) and Scott O’Neil (Middleburn) are certainly the TORQ men of the moment. 

The National Championships this year took place on a testing course near Ludlow, Shropshire. 

You may, or may not have followed a recent debate on the Singletrackworld website, where I and another battled out our differences over some nutritional advice I gave for and leading up to the Red Bull Mountain Mayhem event. 

Jason Le Page is a Downhill Mountain Biker who lives on Guernsey (one of the Channel Islands for those of you who may be geographically challenged). 

For all you Downhillers, BSX and BMXers out there, TORQ has now teamed up with DIRT mag to produce regular fitness and performance features.

The Red Bull Mountain Mayhem is drawing closer.
