Our favorite pick is by far the recovery shake Endurox R4 chocolate. 

 

I love my Osprey Packs because they are tough, reliable and super comfortable. And they are the best looking packs on the market! ;)

 

For day races I use the Rev 6, 12 or 18 for light and fast adventures.

On longer adventures the Talon 33 or Rev 24 are my best bet with the extra space that allows us to bring all mandatory gear and still have room for extra food and clothes to be ready to face all elements.

Traditional running shoes feature pointy toe boxes that squeeze the toes out of their natural position—increasing risk of bunions, hammertoes and plantar fasciitis. Altra’s FootShape™ toe box allows the toes to relax and spread out naturally and the big toe to remain in a straight position. This enhances stability and creates a powerful toe-off to maximize running performance. I personally use the Lone peak 2.0 in the trails and I love them to bits.

Cannondale's exceptional reputation in the bike world makes it a sure bet for our team. Our F29 Carbon 3 bikes fit our needs perfectly.

The F in F29 doesn’t stand for F-ing Fast, but it probably should. Fast because of the F29 series’ proprietary SPEED SAVE micro-suspension technology, which keeps speeds high and fatigue low, and their ultralight and ultra-stiff frames which ensure that all those precious watts get converted into race wins.
