2016 Stumpjumper Desert 100 Countdown 6 Days to Go
Less than a week until race day. The window on rush ordering parts and shaking down the bike is rapidly closing. Tuesday night the engine was hung into the frame. The rest of the week flew by too fast, and without any more work completed. Sunday real work was done. The rest of the engine mounts were installed and torqued. Electrical, oil, and coolant systems are all connected. Monday night the bike fired to life again for the first time in months. Everything seems to work as it should, the desert will be the final judge this weekend.
Good luck out there, have fun, and godspeed.
