We’re delighted to announce our demo fleet will be taken along to join in the fun at this February’s Hit the North 2.5 Race.

Team JMC/Ragley riders, Dave and Jason will be whipping around the course on their TD-1s and will (probably) be delighted to talk about their bikes.

What’s Hit the North I’ve been living in a cave.

Hit the North returns on February 12th 2011 in the ever-popular ‘Winter Sprinter’ format – basically it’s 2 hours of quality racing on almost the same course as last year (including that horrible grassy climb).
Fine catering, top-drawer entertainment, free parking, guaranteed nice weather, Blitz spirit – what more could you possibly want?

It’s only 14quid, what better way to blow your lungs up on a Saturday in February and prepare yourself for the joys of the oncoming Spring?

Our friend Ed from Great Rock went to Greece to ride with some Ragley owners. Here’s some philosophy.

We’ve been “knocking around” (as they say around here) with Nigel Page for a while now. He’s Team Manager at CRC Intense, and with CRC being the biggest Ragley dealer (after The Bicycle Shop in Skipton), we sort of ended up chatting a bit back. Since then, he’s ridden some trails with us, I’ve ridden some DH with him, which resulted in me trashing his Intense Socom and ending up in hospital.

To make it up to Nigel, I sent him a Ragley frame and parts, and he’s built them up. He called yesterday to say he’d “ridden 10miles to the quarry, ridden the new slopestyle course, ridden home again and was knackered”.

Here’s his post from http://myragley.com/

We love our frames, but we’re always keen to see what people who’ve bought them think. Chain Reaction Cycles have a reviews database, and we’re starting to get some feedback on there.

Heres the Blue Pig reviews – we were sorry a few slightly ropey welded frames got out in the first batch, but from feedback we’ve got that nailed now – if anyone’s unhappy, get in touch.

And here’s the mmmbop reviews – all sounding positive.

If you’ve got a Ragley product and want to give feedback, then please add it to one of the Ragley products on this page (wherever you bought it from!).

Ragley supported rider Jason Miles (aka Terrahawk) reports on his experiences of the Three Peaks “hardest cross race in the world” – http://40psi.wordpress.com/2009/09/28/3-peaks-cyclocross-2009/

Jason (and team mate Dave Powell) were racing the first Rodwell cyclocross frames in the country. They’re now in stock at Hotlines, ready for the cross season, or the winter commute.

Dave’s report is here – http://www.twinklydave.com/?p=492

What bike would you ride?

Just a quick email about my new works bike. As the Pennine Bridleway Ranger I get a bike for patrols, surveys etc. I used to have a Specialized Epic but as this was about 5 years old it was cheaper to get a new bike than repair the old.
I saw the article in Singletrack about the Ti frame but this was out of my budget so I had Blazing Saddles make me up a Blue Pig.

It’s a brilliant bike, all of the time for  riding round the local tracks and trails. It has a really nice balance and poise that’s flatters you on your favourite trails and helps you out on trails you don’t. The low speed balance is fantastic especially good for climbing up round Calderdales rocky rooty tracks.
