First Prize Goes to...The Girl on the Opus Nix
The afternoon would bring the Preston Street Crits and Anna Sierra was going to race the 100m dash. Derek had her practice sprinting down our street, shifting gears and stomping on her pedals so that she'd be ready for the madness that is piles of kids riding together. Jasper thought about racing too, but changed his mind and decided he would cheer his sister on instead. He's a good cheerer, that Jasper.

After a briefing from their coach, the bigger kids took off. I meant to take pictures of her glorious moment, but I got so excited when I saw Anna Sierra riding that I just cheered. She's a fantastic little rider and gives it her all, but I think her super light Opus Nix, with its quick, easy and smooth shifting, helped too.
Pulling ahead of the kids beside her, Anna Sierra was first across the finish. We all ran out to hug her and just kept on grinning while she accepted her trophy.

First look at the Clutch
NSMB a taking a first look at the Opus Clutch.

" Last summer while on vacation in Nelson, I had the opportunity to try out Opus’s “Nelson” (I’m not making this up). I was pretty impressed and it made me curious about the rest of their line. Opus sent out a 2011 Clutch for testing this spring. "
" The Clutch has also proven an able climber so far, but the tall front end combined with the light fork makes for some front wheel wandering on steep climbs. However, with some weight shifting, the Clutch motors up technical descents and settles in on longer climbs well. "
" I'm quite pleased with this bike so far. I've got plenty of time to put the Clutch through its paces. Once I'm done you'll be hearing from me again. "

Not your dad's bike
Want to take a first look at the 2011 Opus Nelson bike?
Read the review on the Trailburn website and make you own opinion.
" Enter the 2011 Opus Nelson series. With 2 bikes deep, the 1 and the 2 cater to both enthusiast and even professional riders, each kit using the same frame and floating pivot suspension technology with 7 inches of travel and a 66 degree head-angle to provide a happy medium of ascension and descent. We have built up our 2011 Opus Nelson 2 tester and are excited of a bike that can bring us joy no matter where we find ourselves riding. "
" Just from building it and having a close look at the parts spec and the quality of craftsmanship and putting quality where it counts is important here. Bonus that they are a Canadian brand and making a solid effort to enter the freeride/do-it-all category of mountain biking. "
