Suzanne & Daniel are so accommodating in our communication even though we didnt meet personally. They welcome the place amazingly. The place itself was fantastic i will definitely come back next yeat for the summer.
Amabelle2016-10-17T00:00:00ZSuch a beautiful area to visit in PEI! The cottage was stunning and brand new, with amazing sunsets to beat. The hosts were efficient in communications, and friendly. We were all very impressed!
Hillary2016-11-09T00:00:00ZAbsolutely amazing place! All the small details were well thought of that helped our family of 8 enjoy their stay here. The waterfront was absolutely beautiful. Highly recommended this location to others.
Romayne2016-09-14T00:00:00ZThe place has a stunning view of the Northumberland Strait and the bridge that crosses it. The house is brand new as is everything in it. Wifi 1.5mb. Daniel and Suzanne did everything possible to make our stay a pleasurable one. Daniel even offered to take me out fishing, a very nice chap! The added extras of volleyball, badminton, kayaking and hunting for clams on the sand banks made for special memories. Brilliant!!
michael2016-09-15T00:00:00ZWe had a fantastic 3-night, Fall stay at this charming cottage. It has all of the modern conveniences, fast WIFI, well stocked kitchen, and outstanding views of the Confederation Bridge and Northumberland Strait! The master bedroom is stunning! Each morning and evening, we watched two red foxes as they searched for a meal along the edge of the bay. The red sand sunsets are amazing over the water!
Aaron2016-11-19T00:00:00ZBeautiful new cottage by the sea. Our girls (4&6) loved the sand bars and walking in the straight. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.
Chris2016-09-18T00:00:00ZWe had nothing short of an amazing stay at The Shore Lot Cottage and can't recommend it enough to prospective travelers! The cottage itself is a fantastic spot, with great proximity to make a number of day trips out and about on the island. From top to bottom, it's a wonderful space and has everything you could possibly look for in a place to stay. Seriously, I can't say enough good things about it. As for the hosts, Suzanne was prompt in all communications, and while we didn't meet her in person, the check-in process was a breeze. On that alone, this place is definitely one to stay at. Having used Airbnb in Paris, Italy, Honolulu, and now Canada, I suppose it doesn't come as much of a surprise that you can expect a property like this, but it's definitely a place we won't be forgetting!
Scotty2016-10-03T00:00:00ZA beautiful home in a spectacular setting. Everything you could possibly need is here. Wonderful hosts.

Nic is vey responsible and helpful. He answered my questions right away. The cottage is very clean, and the scenery is breathtaking. We will stay there if we visit PEI again. It's just such a beautiful place! Thanks Nic!
Qianran2016-09-28T00:00:00ZNix was an excellent host and made everything very easy for us during our stay. Location was beautiful--right on the bay. Only drawback was that there is only one bathroom. But I'm pretty sure that is listed in the posting.
Jan2016-07-03T00:00:00ZGreat host, great unit, great experience! Highly recommended
Karl2016-09-06T00:00:00ZPlace is gorgeous! What a view of the bridge.. breath taking. Nic treated us like family and even was there to pull my rental car out of the snow. Number one booking in PEI
Clayton2017-03-04T00:00:00ZBeautiful and clean place !
Emma2016-11-10T00:00:00ZWe only stayed here one night, but we really liked the space and would have stayed longer if we could. Very spacious, comfortable rooms. One benefit of this location for us was the proximity to the bridge; it's convenient if you have a late arrival on the island as we did. Nic met us nearby and led us to the house and has a very good set up for rentals in the area.
Charlie2016-05-31T00:00:00ZNic was really helpful and accommodating! We reached late but he stayed to help us settle in and he was really friendly! His place is big, peaceful and really cozy!
Tan2016-10-27T00:00:00ZFirst of all the location was great. Right over the bridge with excellent views. Nic is a very responsive host, quick communication and very understanding of your needs. I only wish I had more time to stay and enjoy the apartment it was quite cozy.

It was e good time in Tim's House! It was clean and straightforward! We like it!! Thank' s for all!
sandra2016-04-27T00:00:00ZNic made us feel very welcome, we was very accommodating and flexible in terms of our arrival time. The place was perfect, and totally worth the value. The view was gorgeous, and he has a great property. The house had everything we needed and it's a great space to vacation at.
Danielle2015-10-29T00:00:00ZIt's not easy to find a nice home with a reasonable price on Prince Edward Island so I feel very lucky to find Nic. I was on a last minute road trip with no plans and he was able to respond quickly to my demand even if it was last minute and late at night. His house is spotless, well-decorated and all-furnished. He even left soft drinks, bottles of water and special drink from PEI in the fridge and a gas BBQ on the balcony for us. The TV works nicely and the Internet is pretty fast. The beds are huge and comfortable. Towels, shampoo and soap are great quality. The front view is gorgeous. My dog and I were able to swim at the beach located in front of the house. My amazing time in PEI is mostly thanks to Nic.
Julie2016-06-29T00:00:00ZIt's great spot and Nic works overtime to make everything work well.
Ted2017-03-06T00:00:00ZCouldn't have possibly asked for a better host or location. Beautiful views, Nic was super hospitable and genuine. He seemed like the kind of host who would do whatever it takes to make his guests happy and although I never give reviews, I felt the need for those looking to stay here that they know they're in good hands! Cannot wait to stay again!

Pretty nice and comfortable house. Totally recommend to stay with friends or family.
Henry2016-08-06T00:00:00ZWe loved this cozy cabin! The woodwork was very pretty.. the sauna was a cool(ahem, hot) experience... very private location! Beach was nearby, we enjoyed walking it, though at the time, it was not ideal for swimming, due to jellyfish and debris. The full kitchen was very well stocked and convenient and we loved the master bedroom! There was a slight smell of dog in a few rooms, but we soon got used to it, and was not a problem. Be sure to bring insect repellant as there can be quite a few mosquitos! The large screen TV was nice, though we had trouble getting the online movies to work. Definitely worth your time staying here!
Amber2016-07-18T00:00:00ZGreat stay
Derek2016-06-13T00:00:00ZVery welcoming cottage, absolutely beautiful location! Was like having our own private beach! Really appreciated all the post it notes! Also enjoyed the sauna. Really enjoyed our time here.
Amy2016-07-16T00:00:00ZTres bon séjour. l'emplacement proche de la plage était ideal, maison accueillante, beaucoup de choses a notre protée.
fabien2016-08-07T00:00:00ZNever meet the hoste didn't let us now how to get in door was unlocked and key was inside a better set up would make the guest feel (URL HIDDEN) privacy most of the blinds you can see though l don't want to seem like l am nick picking but when you pay that much to say in a place you would expect to find garbage can have bags paper towels supplied coffee and tea a screen door on the patio would have been nice no fire wood there should be pamphlets and map to places to eat etc but what was there didn't provide much of anything .Didn't like that there wasn't any blind or curtain in master bathroom .We have stayed with air bub before and we meet the hoste and everything was there they even came by to ask if we needed anything or if everything was alright we told them our concern and it was delt with right on the spot but things like no fire wood or tea or coffee is only common since and it was not provided just saying so the next guest don't have the same problem.
Ronald2016-09-05T00:00:00ZSo nice here, beach just a very short walk away, and close to the confederation bridge !
Ashley2016-10-02T00:00:00ZOverall we had a great time. Here at the pros and the cons that we experienced during our trip: Cons: Wifi was almost none existent the smart tv and Kodi box that they have did not work. We did not have a working light in the ensuite bathroom for the week (host was aware however person responsible for looking at the house never came to fix) No outdoor shower as said in listing. All window had holes in the screens and there was no screen door on the front patio door which was inconvenient when it became hot we could not open the door to allow air to move through because there was a ton of mosquitos. Mosquitos are quite bad there so I would suggest you bring lots of insect repellant. Pros: This cottage was very clean and spacious. There were also plenty of towels and linens to use. Having a dishwasher there made it very convenient for us! The location is very private and the beach access was very close (a lot seaweed on the shore we just raked it to the side and made our own little beach). It was also very nice to have a small fire pit we really enjoyed that. Close proximity to Summerside which allowed us to go and get groceries. Sauna works well and is a nice little bonus. Host was very friendly and got back to our requests v promptly. The pros definitely outweighed the cons and we would recommend this listing to our friends and family.

The place is excellent and we enjoyed our stay here. Chris is a great host and responds to all messages right away. Although I didn't get a chance to meet him but he sounded very courteous over the phone and we had not issues. Overall a great experience and I would recommend this place. Pros: - Beautiful location (although the house is not on the beach itself but a short walk in front of the house leads you to the beach) - Nice house - Chris response on any inquiry is spot on without any delay. - Very nice setup in the house Cons: - 45 minutes away from Charlotte Town if that is where you want to roam around. - Property is for 10 people but there are just 2 bathrooms. Would have been nice if there was another bathroom. - No water view if you are looking for one. Suggestions: - Small sticky notes would help e.g. how to operate the stove etc., we couldnt find the remote for the home theater. (so a sticky note on where the remotes are placed and where we should leave them would be nice).
Adeel2016-09-06T00:00:00ZThe house was great, ideal for a large family or two families. We had everything we needed. The house is in a great location with a beautiful private beach just steps away. Chris is a great host and he gave us lots of informations upon arrival.
Sébastien2016-08-15T00:00:00ZThis is one of a kind place. Clean, bright, new house, with everything you would need. We were 6 people and one toddler, and we enjoyed our stay so much that we cancelled one night from our next stop and stayed there longer, which Chris accommodated without hesitation. The beach is private and just steps away via a private boardwalk. It is the nicest beach for the kids as it is gentle with a fantastic view (in comparison, Cavendish beach was horrifically harsh with dangerous waves). In general, it is a very kid friendly place to stay. Lots of clean towels to use and modern washing machine with detergent readily available makes things much easier. There is a nice outside shower to clean the sands before going into the house which is also a big positive. Finally the owner, Chris, is very easy going and nice. My only thought is that if a group is more than 7-8 people, the washrooms can become a bottleneck (the house has lots and lots of bedrooms, but a bit short on washrooms).
Ehsan2016-09-11T00:00:00ZWe had a great two weeks with our family at the Sandy Toes Vacation Home. Chris was a great host and had the place very clean and provided lots of additional items for us when we arrived (ex. bottle of wine, toothpaste, shampoo, etc...). During our stay Chris was very responsive and courteous. The cottage is in an excellent location with a beautiful private beach just steps away. We will definitely look to head back to PEI and stay at Sandy Toes in the future.

Wendy is a fabulous host. She is very thoughtful and thorough in her instructions. We never doubted that our vacation in Prince Edward Island would be memorable, but Wendy's hosting made the experience effortless. The cottage is exactly as described, is cozy, inviting, and convenient to our needs. Even with a small mishap with our flight, Wendy was full of advice and encouragement. That's well above and beyond the call of dury. If you want a beautiful, somewhat secluded, delightful place to stay (yet convenient to access all parts of the island) this is the right place.
craig2016-09-06T00:00:00ZWe had a great family trip to Wendy's cottage! She had everything prepared and waiting for us and even provided breakfast items for our stay! Beautiful area and relaxing cottage.
Stephanie2016-09-05T00:00:00ZUpon our arrival, Wendy made sure we had the staples, as we came in quite late and she wasn't sure that we would,have time to stop at the grocery store!! She phoned the next day to make sure everything was ok:) We felt at home the moment we walked in the door! Charming private beach and quiet neighbourhood! I would highly recommend staying at Angela's Cottage:) Thank you Wendy and Ron
Darryl2016-07-14T00:00:00ZA lovely cottage, just as described.
Angie2016-07-30T00:00:00ZWendy and Ron were good hosts and had breakfast fixings in the fridge for our first morning. The pictures are older. The screen door doesn't fit and the front door is very difficult to open and close since parts of the cottage have settled. The mosquitos are extremely bad and there is no air conditioning so you need the air coming in the screen door but since it doesn't fit and the screen is detached at one side the bugs come in too. The ceiling fan in the master does not work. The hosts did have a portable fan there. 2 of the 3 couches are broken, need replacing. It was difficult to find a comfortable spot to even curl up and read. The BBQ needs a deep clean as does the outdoor furniture. Inside was clean. The beach in our opinion is unswimable. It is rocky and seaweedy. We did not see anyone in the water. Given all of the above we were to stay the minimum of 3 nights but left after the first night.
Joan2016-07-08T00:00:00ZWe loved our stay here! It is a beautiful cottage and amazing location - nicer than the photos even let on! Steps from a gorgeous beach that gives a unique view of the confederation bridge in the background. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Andie2016-07-05T00:00:00ZWendy & Ron were great. The cottage was good, & had everything we needed. Comfy bed, & lovely ensute deep bathtub. The cottage was clean, the neighbourhood quiet & 2 minute walk to the beach. We only stayed 3 days but could have stayed longer.
Nora2016-08-30T00:00:00ZWendy was an amazing host, and even provided the essentials for our first breakfast. The cottage is quite nice, and a five minute walk to the beach made for some beautiful sunset walks. We stayed for three nights, and throughly recommend it. Thanks, Wendy!

We absolutely loved Nic's place... So much so that we extend our stay an additional night. The location was perfect even for a run in to Charlottetown... Went for a swim and a sunset kayak... Amazing
Diane2016-09-27T00:00:00ZNic was a wonderful host and truly went above and beyond in hospitality. Not only was the apartment beautifully appointed, decorated, clean and comfortable, but he was also flexible to our requests. Communication with Nic was amazingly fast. He usually responds within a few minutes. Check in and check out was a breeze. A well laid out binder gives all the information of the unit, and surrounding area. To our surprise there is so much more that is included that is not mentioned, like 4 ocean kayaks free to use, outside gas grill among other amenities. The pictures don't justice to the location, it is just so much more beautiful. The views of the ocean are amazing. It is quiet, yet close to all tourist attractions. We will certainly stay here again when we return. For those are contemplating PEI, look no further. You will not be disappointed, that is for sure.
Xaver2016-06-15T00:00:00ZNic was very communicative and considerate by looking up restaurants for us, recommending activities and developing a card with all the necessary directions and information we needed to find the cottage.
Monica2015-11-17T00:00:00ZNous avons passé un merveilleux moment !! Les hôtes sont incroyablement serviable et accommodant et font leurs maximum pour que les invités passent un excellent séjour. La vue est magnifique . Je retournerai au même endroit et je le recommande fortement.
Alexandra2015-09-15T00:00:00ZBeautiful cottage right on the water, loved it so much we booked an extra night. No problems with last minute bookings either, the amenities were all available including laundry, kayaks, wifi etc. Nic & his family were lovely hosts! Very much looking forward to going back next summer/fall! Thanks again for everything Nic!
Jackie2016-09-22T00:00:00ZFantastic overnight stay right by the Confederation Bridge with a spectacular view. The apartment was cozy and clean with full amenities. Everything was as promised and the host Nic was personable and accommodating. The only hiccup on our stay would be the noisy neighbors staying in the adjacent unit but that is hardly within the control of the host. Overall, I would stay there again.
Elaine2016-07-03T00:00:00ZWe had an wonderful time in PEI staying in Borden-Carleton at Nic's place. The ground floor apartment was spacious, clean, and completely furnished.
Kris2016-09-01T00:00:00ZNic met us on our arrival to make sure we had everything that we needed.The place was (URL HIDDEN) is as described, a duplex and so you tend to hear the people next door coming and going.Otherwise was a comfortable place to stay for the night.

They didn't lie when they called this location "Your Favorite Beach Vacation Ever!!!" We were impressed when we received our PDF info pack of local places, tips, and tricks a few weeks before we arrived. We were completely thrilled when we saw the house for the first time. From our greeting and tour of the house to the morning we pulled out of the driveway for the last time, three picky women had not one complaint. Originally we had planned for a larger group but due to "life happening" it was just the three of us in the end. The house is big enough that we could have gone the whole vacation without seeing each other. Instead, we spent hours cooking in the kitchen, enjoying the stars while soaking in the hot tub and quiet time on the super comfy couches. The house is CLEAN. As a tall person, I usually see the dust everyone else missed like the top of the fridge or door jams. I couldn't find a spec. There are spare sheets, pillows, robes and more towels than you could need. Soaps, detergents, and all the basic supplies are also provided. We can't say this enough. The kitchen, pantry, and work space are a dream. We ended up cooking over 30 dishes while we were there and every pot, bowl, pan, tray, utensil and dish we could possible need was available. The one item we couldn't find was a cheese grater but if that is the worst we can say about that kitchen you know it is AMAZING. We had three heavy storms while we were there but minus a minor flicker of the lights, we didn't lose power once. The wifi was super speedy so if you decided you need to connect with the outside world you will have no problems. We were given contact numbers, backup contact numbers, email addresses and a drawer full of manuals for household items in case we had questions. We didn't have a single question all week, but it was so nice to know we were only a call or a few page flips away from any answer we may need. The views - glorious ocean views by day and a couple of million stars by night. The traffic - pure gridlock hit when a bicycle and a postal car were on the same road at the same time. The noise - lapping waves, occasional seagull and the sound of the wind. We can't wait to go back next year!!
Ruta2016-09-23T00:00:00ZThe house was beautiful! It was everything and more than we could have hoped for. Kathy, our host, was very welcoming and helpful. The views from every window were amazing! It was a short walk down to the beach where we played all day, every day. The location could not have been better. You go across the bridge to PEI and it is a 10 minute drive. We were two families and a grandmother and it was more than enough room for all of us. It was a great spot for kids and we especially loved the hot tub. We highly recommend this listing! Thank you for everything Kathy and Lorne!
Laura2016-08-07T00:00:00ZOur stay at the Blue Heron was really wonderful. The place was spotless upon arrival and we were greeted in person, with wine and beer! The house is massive and even with 6 adults, 2 toddlers and a baby, we still didn't utilize all the space. The kitchen was well equipped and we were provided the small necessities such as dishwash tabs, laundry detergent, salt, etc (a common convenience lots of places don't provide). Each bedroom had lots of bedding, extra pillows and even robes which were useful in the hot tub. All the hosts were easily accessible by text, email and phone and very helpful. Unexpected extras made the stay more convenient such as a high chair and the kites. I did notice a bike and a couple kayaks though those weren't used by us. All in all, we had a really great visit. Highly recommended!!

The cottage is great! It looks very new and has an awesome view of the ocean and the bridge. Would stay again next time, definitely recommend it to everyone.
Xiaoyi2015-10-14T00:00:00ZVery well furnished and upscale home. We felt pampered. Nic upgraded us to a nicer unit from the one we rented since no one was renting it at the time. It's worth the extra cost, though we didn't have to pay for it, thanks Nic :) . Outside is a spectacular view of the ocean, obstructed only by an epic bridge. We had a wonderful stay,
Nuriel2017-02-06T00:00:00ZThe listing was accurate but the arial photo just doesn't do justice to the wonderful water access. Nick and family were the perfect hosts.
Janet2015-10-22T00:00:00ZThe cottage was well kept and the fridge was stocked with drinks. Nic was very accomadating and even offered to bring kayaks to the beach for my wife and I. We brought our dog and she was able to run around on the large property. We had a wonderful time and would definitely come back.
Christian2016-05-09T00:00:00ZNic is a great host; he turned on the heat on for is prior to our arrival. His place is really lovely as well. Highly recommended it to people who visit PEI.
Jessica2016-05-10T00:00:00ZEven though Nic couldn't be present he was available by phone with good directions and a great place. It was comfortable, close to the water with a great view of the bridge. I would definitely go there again
David2016-05-22T00:00:00ZNic was great. Very helpful for our late arrival. Set us up with breakfast stuff and supplies. Thanks!
James2016-10-06T00:00:00ZWe really enjoyed our stay in PEI thanks to Nic. The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped! The views are AMAZING! Cant wait to come back in the summer with my family! If you are visiting PEI and you are reading this, look no further! Nic's cottages are the perfect spot!

Beautiful cottage! We really enjoyed our stay at Sea Breeze. Only a short walk to the beautiful rock-free beach (1-2min) and a short drive to S'side (15min). Loved it and we definetly recommend!
Nellie2016-07-24T00:00:00ZMERVEILLEUX MOMENTS AU SEA BREEZE. NOUS AVONS ÉTÉ PLUS QU'HEUREUX DE POUVOIR PASSER UNE SEMAINE DANS CETTE SUPERBE MAISON (ENCORE PLUS BELLE ÊT SPATIEUSE QUE SUR LES PHOTOS).
Catherine2016-08-22T00:00:00ZWe just returned home after having the pleasure of staying at this little piece of heaven! We met the owners as soon as we arrived, and they were wonderful! The house was spotless, and we noticed how clean it smelled as we walked in the door. The sheets and towels were also very clean. We stayed here with another family of four, all of us with younger kids. This was the perfect space for us. The kids loved the big front yard, lawn toys, and the fact we were steps from the beach. Our favourite place in the house was the screened in back porch, where we spent most of our evenings when the kids went to bed. You could watch the sunset and hear the ocean. This house is within driving distance to Summerside, and about an hour from Charlottetown. We liked that it was away from the touristy places and felt peaceful at all times. The neighbours were friendly and respectful. We really can't say enough good about this place! We hope to return again soon, and that other families will get the opportunity to make as many great memories as we did.
Jeremy2016-07-17T00:00:00ZMy family of 6 enjoyed Karen & Joe's beach house immensely! It was spacious, comfortable and well appointed, with all the amenities we could hope for. The kitchen was a dream to cook fresh, local food we purchased from the nearby Summerside Farmers and fish markets, as well as the clams we dug ourselves on our beach. Ooooh the beach!!! Perfect red sand, warm water and no jellyfish. We spent 10 days and could have stayed at the property the whole time. The outdoor shower and clothes line were really handy to rinse the sand off. There is outdoor games, 2 bikes and a kayak to enjoy. Nice to watch movies in the big family room in the evening. You are unable to see the ocean from the cottage but the beach is a very short walk (4 minutes) down the path. The cottage is in a cottage community but there's lots of space and privacy. Nice to have 2 bathrooms and all the beds were comfy! The huge loft bedroom and ensuite was used by our 2 teenage girls for privacy and space. Cottage was very centrally located and it was a breeze to take day trips around the island. The local coffee and jam left for us by Karen was delicious
Kristy2016-08-04T00:00:00ZDès le premier contact avec les hôtes, une belle relation s'est établie. Karen répondait toujours à mes nombreuses questions dans un temps record. J'estime que les photos de la maison ne lui rendent pas suffisamment justice. L'espace est aéré et beaucoup plus grand qu'on aurait cru. L'accueil a été très chaleureux et avant de nous quitter pour la semaine, Karen et Joe nous ont dit: "profitez-en, relaxez, c'est votre maison pour toute la semaine" et cela a vraiment été le cas. Bien que la plage ne soit qu'à 3.5 min. à pieds de la maison, nous avons passé plus de temps dans celle-ci parce qu'on s'y sentait bien. Tout est pensé dans cette maison, de la décoration jusqu'aux commodités; leurs cuisine est mieux équipée que plusieurs que je connaisse. Elle est ample et très fonctionnelle. Nous pouvions y être à plusieurs sans se marcher sur les pieds. Karen et Joe, qui ont le souci du détails dans leur rôle d'hôte, ont mis à notre disposition une foule d'articles, afin de rendre notre séjour plus facile et agréable, ex: des chaises, serviettes et jeux de plages, une collection de chapeaux, de la crème solaire et un gel à l'aloes au cas où on attraperait un coup de soleil, une brosse à dents et j'en passe... La literie est de qualité et les lits sont confortables. Les hôtes ont communiqué avec nous durant la semaine pour s'assurer que tout fonctionnait bien pour nous, on sentait réellement que, tout en nous laissant notre intimité, ils étaient présents au cas où on aurait besoin de quelque chose. La maison est situé sur un grand terrain, adjacent au parc provincial de Chelton Beach, sur lequel il y a plusieurs chalets. Le charme de la maison de Joe et Karen, outre son architecture, vient du fait qu'elle est située sur le dernier lot et entourée d'arbre, on ne voit donc que le voisin d'en face et on s'y s'en vraiment tranquille. La route à côté est rarement transitée alors elle ne dérange pas du tout. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la véranda arrière ou les moustiquaires nous permettaient de finir nos soirées à l'extérieur sans la compagnie des moustiques! Nous avons pris tous nos petits déjeuners sur le porche avant pour bénéficier de la chaleur du soleil, sauf le dernier matin où nous avons pris des chaises de plages et sommes allées déjeuner sur les bancs de sable à marée basse; le grand luxe! Le soir, nous sommes allées observer les étoiles et bien sûr, les Perséides (étoiles filantes); quel spectacle. Nous voyagions avec des ados et il semble qu'ils aient bien apprécié leur séjour. Leur seule déception était qu'il y avait que peu de vague du fait que nous étions du coté de la Baie (avec une belle vue sur le pont) plutôt que du côté de l'océan, mais la rive nord n'étant qu'à 40 min. de voiture, c'est un problème qui se règle facilement! En conclusion, nous avons ADORRÉ notre séjour. Merci =)

Chad and Nicks cottage was perfect for what I need. It's pared down and simple but a great value. Chad was in communication whenever needed and Nick helped me find a great restaurant for dinner, even called to be certain I would have a reservation! Very attentive hosts, both. I highly recommend astray at the cottages.
Carol2015-10-30T00:00:00ZHighly recommended!! The cottage is very clean & has everything you could need! The views are breathtaking! I fell in love with PEI upon arrival! Chad went above & beyond for me, when my car died & he helped me with a boost! I would stay here again!
Frieda2016-10-01T00:00:00ZLoved this little cottage. Perfect location. Steps from the water. The cottage has everything you possibly need. Watching the sunsets is a must. Super quick responses from Chad. Easy to find and a great deal for the price. I would definitely recommend for short and long term stays.
Angela2016-07-17T00:00:00Zevery thing was as promised . Will come back for sure .
Karen2016-07-05T00:00:00ZNice little cottage steps away from ocean with everything you need inside. Great for a couple for a nice escape trip. It will be a bit hard to get to if you arrive at night. Chad made a nice direction card for us but I still would recommend using gps or (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) map. Have a great coastal scenic drive in the daytime and fully take advantage of the cheap local market seafood and cook/shuck them yourself at night (avoid spending tons of money in the seafood restaurant). Chad is very professional in managing this place and had lots of local information you may need documented in the binder. Only thing I notice is the hot water tank seems to run out of hot water quite quickly. The trick is to give it 5-10 mins to re-heat after each shower.
Raison2016-10-22T00:00:00ZUn endroit adorable directement sur la mer avec une vue à couper le souffle. Paisible, très propre. Nous avons adoré.
Annie2016-06-11T00:00:00ZChad provided terrific details on the location and check-in. We really enjoyed exploring the beach at low-tide. We have lots of great pictures!
Joanne2016-08-30T00:00:00ZDuplex was clean and right on the water, but the bed was not comfortable and there was a strong scent (air freshener? laundry additive?). Price was good.

innovation research
"Andrew Fentem...went from working on classified missile systems to developing multi-touch human interfaces, kinetic surfaces and motion sensing technologies before almost anyone else in the world."
Andrew Fentem is an innovation expert who worked at Cambridge University and London Business School in the 1990s, studying the management of innovation and the psychology of inventors. He decided to engage more deeply with the field by becoming an inventor himself; against the prevailing wisdom, he wanted to show that it is still possible to create complex new technologies without large development teams or big budgets.
A chronology at the bottom of this page details the technologies that Andrew went on to pioneer - cubic touchscreen computers, tangible computer interfaces, smartwatches, planar robotics etc.
As the inventor of several early multi-touch interface technologies, Andrew was asked to act as an expert in the major patent dispute between Apple and Samsung -
. He was also interviewed about connected controversies -
Andrew has been asked to appear on a number of TV shows related to business, technology, and education - in the US, UK, and Japan. He currently lives in Oxford, and enjoys writing about innovation and politics.

SpaceMan (written in C++, VB, and Java) was a bit like Pinterest, but it also had flexible nested spaces, maps, a bit of AI, visualisation algorithms, and novel metaphors. SpaceMan systems were eventually spun out commercially into a management consultancy and Unilever plc. Some of the theoretical work was published by Elsevier as: 'Evolving Spatial Representations to Support Innovation and the Communication of Strategic Knowledge', Knowledge-Based Systems 11, 1998, p417-428.

2000-2016 :
Novel Interface Technologies and Electronic Devices
Leaving academia and management consultancy to concentrate on inventing, Andrew wanted to explore areas overlooked by the major tech corporations. He was unable to sufficiently interest research bodies, smartphone manufacturers, or universities in the potential of technologies such as multi-touch, so he funded and executed the R&D projects himself.
Some of the technologies that Andrew went on to pioneer - such as multi-touch touchscreens, virtual music controllers, and wireless smartwatches - are now mainstream mass-market technologies, and are very much part of the on-going smartphone revolution. His Flick Pixel technology is currently on the verge of commercialisation, while other inventions - such as the Fentix Cube, tangible interface objects, and modular computing devices - appear to have inspired a number of commercial toy products and academic research programmes:
The majority of the 2000-2016 projects are detailed below, and many of them can be seen in action on a Youtube channel:
. These projects were generally based around novel sensor and actuator hardware components and architectures, and were controlled by Motorola microprocessors running proprietary software (written in embedded C). Patent application documents and detailed technical descriptions exist for these technologies - for more information please use the contact details below.)
Multi-Touch Systems:
Unique approaches to multiple touch detection
, tracking multiple passive objects
, and software to enable hardware products to use this touch data. The most successful of these touchscreen projects were: an ultra-high-speed touchscreen (2001)
, various multi-touch music controllers (2002-2004)
, various interactive flooring systems (2002-2004)
, the world's first multi-touch and orientation-aware tangible computing platforms eg. the Fentix Cube (2007)
, and various modular 3D multi-touch lighting and information display systems (2007-2010).
Planar Robotics, Kinetic Surfaces, and Planar Manipulators:
Innovative technologies for moving objects across flat surfaces using computer-controllable magnetic fields (2000-2005)
. This long-term research project resulted in the creation of many exotic experimental robotic systems and, ultimately, the Flick Pixels technology - robotic wallpaper display systems for the Internet of Things (2014-15)
. Flick Pixels were showcased at the UK government's Digital Catapult Centre - in a showcase of the best of digital creativity in the UK
. The Flick Pixels technology has now been licensed by a consortium of manufacturing and marketing companies who are working on a range of products for consumer and industrial applications.
Digital Art:
In the 1980s Andrew briefly attended art college. In 2004 he worked with the late fashion designer Alexander McQueen - successfully integrating small computers and digitally-controlled lighting into dresses and shoes for McQueen's Paris couture show Autumn/Winter 2004 -
In 2007 Andrew's tangible multi-touch music-controller
was exhibited at the 'Soundwaves' show at Kinetica Museum in London, and his interactive LED Eyes piece
was exhibited at Kinetica Museum's 'In Flux: A State of Being' show in London's Earl's Court Exhibition Centre.
Miscellaneous Projects:
Other experimental electronic devices and products built between 2000 and 2016 include:
Intuitive Controllers
- Robot remote control devices using light-beams and/or magnetometers (2002).
Drawing Tablet Controllers
- Computer drawing tablets 'hacked' into sophisticated synthesiser controllers (2003).
Optical Sound Synthesis
- Hybrid analogue/digital direct sound synthesis device turning the output from a linear optical scanner directly into sound waves

After cleaning up with 4 relics in the November break, this one was a little more sparse. While I picked up some nice parallels, there weren't any hits this time. Still, for the value I grabbed some great base cards.
Just like in November, I picked the Mets and got randomed the Brewers.
Off to the haul!
Masterpieces! These are always welcome cards.
Goudey scored my favourite parallel card of the break - a blue backed Johan Santana mini:
And Gypsy Queen scored me a plethora of minis. Just the main ones for the Mets, but the Brew Crew brought me a variety of backs.
Some nice framed cards also ended up in my bubble envelope of goodness:
But the GQ highlight for me was a highlight reel moment for the Mets:

I'm so into the Gypsy Queen cards right now. I missed out on them, somehow, the past few years, and am now going back filling in gaps of interest. I love the Seaver and Gooden above! And, the Glove Stories series (and Sticky Fingers) is a favorite of mine. Love that shot! I can nearly see it moving in slomo. Awesome break, congrats on the fun finds.

I made a picture frame for my brother. I hope you like it dust stuff #8: check this one outAs I sit here and wait for my walnut burl to arrive from UPS. ( My first internet order of lumber, I am a bit nervous.) I thought I would share a quick picture of my new box. I normally don't share my projects when they are incomplete unless I am doing a blog or need a little advice on how to finish up a design. This time it is simply because I am so excited about it.

My Maloof Rocker #1: Prepping the Front Legs toI recently took a Maloof Rocker class with Randy Child and Charles Neil. They were both kind enough to let me video the learning sections of the class. In this video, Randy discusses the requirements for prepping the front legs to integrate with the seat. I have lots of video but most of it has high levels of noise. If there is interest given these restraints, I will post a few more. As for the class itself, I really learned quite a bit about shaping wood which is the largest require... Blanket Chest #1: Design Choice and Lumber Purchase (pictures)Well, this will be my 6th active blog. I'm spreading myself a bit thin. My wife and I learned that we are are having another baby in the near future. I decided I want to build something for our latest addition and after a lot of thought, concluded that a toy chest/blanket chest is probably the best choice. It doesn't need to be done immediately (good since I'll be busy), it can be used to hold items for the baby, when she is older it can hold toys, and finally it can g...

I bought a Dewalt Scroll Saw awhile back but have not made heavy use of it. I bought a book by Diane Thompson on Scroll Saw Box making about a year ago. There was a design in there entitled The Tree of Life and thought I would give it a go. I had some 1/4 inch Walnut and some thicker (approx 1 1/2") Tiger Maple that I purchased from Raven's Farm that I decid... Trying out the router table and bit from Charles NeilI scored some tiger maple, cherry and white oak yesterday and just had to try out the new router table with my new router bit I (Thanks Charles for the bit and Jim for the lead) The tiger was a piece I deemed not worth risking damage but as it turned out it came out great. I ran it over the jointer and it took about 4 passes to get the profile to the desired point.

Federal Real Property:
Actions Needed to Address Long-standing and Complex Problems
GAO-04-119T: Published: Oct 1, 2003. Publicly Released: Oct 1, 2003.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6670
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The federal government faces longstanding problems with excess and underutilized real property, deteriorating facilities, unreliable real property data, and costly space. These problems have multibillion-dollar cost implications and can seriously jeopardize agencies' missions. In addition, federal agencies face many challenges securing real property due to the threat of terrorism. This testimony discusses long-standing, complex problems in the federal real property area and what actions are needed to address them.
Government data show that over 30 agencies control hundreds of thousands of real property assets worldwide, including facilities and land, which are worth hundreds of billions of dollars. Unfortunately, much of this vast, valuable portfolio reflects an infrastructure based on the business model and technological environment of the 1950s. Many of the assets are no longer effectively aligned with, or responsive to, agencies' changing missions and are therefore no longer needed. Further, many assets are in an alarming state of deterioration; agencies have estimated that restoration and repair needs are in the tens of billions of dollars. Compounding these problems are the lack of reliable governmentwide data for strategic asset management, a heavy reliance on costly leasing instead of ownership to meet new space needs, and the cost and challenge of protecting these assets against potential terrorism. Given the persistence of these problems and related obstacles, we designated federal real property as a new high-risk area in January 2003. Resolving these problems will require high-level attention and effective leadership by both Congress and the administration. Also, current structures and processes may not be adequate to address the problems. Thus, as we have reported, there is a need for a comprehensive, integrated transformation strategy for real property that will focus on some of the underlying causes that contribute to these problems, such as competing stakeholder interests in real property decisions, various legal and budget-related disincentives to businesslike outcomes, inadequate capital planning, and the lack of governmentwide focus on real property issues. It is equally important that Congress and the administration work together to develop and enact needed reform legislation to give real property-holding agencies incentives and tools they need to achieve better outcomes. This would also foster a more businesslike real property environment and provide for greater accountability.

place in Ohio regarding voting. It was nice that he asked Secretary of
State Jon Husted my question that I submitted about the market wanting
weekend voting and Golden Week voting so why won't government respond to
the people instead of saying we have to respond to government? He
also asked Subodh's question about disenfranchisement of African
American voters in large urban communities. We never got to hear a
debate about large populations like Cuyahoga County not being able to
get the 700,000 registered voters through the lines when we have the
same hours as the 14,000 voters in Van Wert County.

Ex-Yugoslavia - TFF's work since 1991
Vukovar, Croatia 2008
TFF began its fact-finding, conflict mitigation and peace education in all parts of the former Yugoslavia in September 1991, a few months after the conflicts had deteriorated into warfare.
Based on our first team mission, we published the report "After Yugoslavia - What?" in November that year - more than 3,000 copies of which were disseminated. Among other things, the report proposed a deployment of UN peace-keepers in Croatia. It was the first time that proposal was made and it became reality a few months later.
Members of the TFF team - among them Jarman, Sommelius, Schierup, Schultz, Galtung, Oberg and Wiberg - have visited the area numerous times in a personal capacity: one of them visited Yugoslavia as early as in the late 1950s. Between 1991 and 2010, TFF sent teams to the former Yugoslav republics some 70 times.
During the missions, including during the bombing of Kosovo and Serbia (1999), TFF conflict-mitigation and fact-finding teams conducted more than 3,000 longer interviews and did so with people of all walks of life, on all sides and in all the republics.
What came out of this work?
Firstly, TFF produced conflict analyses, conflict-mitigation proposals, alternative peace plans, early warnings and a series of education programs and skills training in
peace by peaceful means
for civil society groups in most of the republics. TFF team members were used extensively by international media, including CNN (but, perhaps significantly, not by any government).
Secondly, the Foundation drafted quite a few books, book chapters, reports and articles. Team members participated in media debates and used their experiences in numerous conferences and courses internationally.
In short, what you read at TFF is based on multi-year, personal, in-the-field experience and book knowledge as well as on thousands of interviews in the field with all sides before, during and after the wars.
A blog and a book entitled "Yugoslavia: What Should Have Been Done" by Johan Galtung, Jan Oberg and the late Håkan Wiberg will be published in 2012. It will cover the 2500+ pages the three authors wrote over the years. The blog will contain the manuscripts as they were written at the time, and the book (about 150 pages) will summarize its content for a wider audience.
Today, TFF monitors, does fact-finding and writes predominantly about Serbia and its Kosovo/a province, Montenegro, as well as Macedonia and the international community's policies in the region.

A certain slice of the tech community was abuzz on May 30 when Code for America founder Jennifer Pahlka announced she was coming to Washington to work with U.S. CTO Todd Park as Deputy CTO for Government Innovation. For many agency IT professionals, however, Pahlka -- whose non-profit is based in San Francisco and focused on local, not federal, government -- is a little-known commodity.
For anyone wondering what makes Pahlka tick, her 2012 TED talk on "coding a better government" is a good place to start:

Seasoned government managers are hopeful about an innovation effort backed by the president, but they see pitfalls and the possibility of duplication.
Early self-reporting suggests that 81 percent of agencies are on track to electronically manage email records.
The head of the Defense Innovation Unit Experimental says his goal is to drive culture change in the DOD's acquisition and innovation processes rather than make DIUx the acquisition arm of the DOD.
A plan to reorganize DHS' cybersecurity directorate that stalled in Congress last year is still on the agency's agenda.
Without confirmed subcabinet officials, President Donald Trump's executive order calling for a federal government reorganization will be managed by agency chiefs and career executives.
As promised, a budget blueprint from the Trump administration prioritizes military and homeland security spending, and pays for increases with dramatic cuts to civilian agencies.

Do people decide to buy windows or doors the same way they make a decision about purchasing, say, a new pair of shoes? Of course not. Buying windows, doors, or other types of home improvements costs a lot more and takes far more time and research. Some homeowners relish the challenge, while some put it off because they dread it. And with good cause. Whether eager beavers or reluctant buyers, they're going to be experiencing some stress.
Badge Value
How and why people buy large home improvements, such as major appliances, flooring, and doors and windows, is the subject of the study "The Complex Shopper." The annual study, based on an online survey of 1,600 homeowners by The Integer Group and research partner Decision Analyst, shows how differently consumers view various types of big-ticket purchases, even if the price tag is similar.
Non-glamorous commodities, such as toilets and gutters, get the least consideration, even though the price tag is still high, relative to other, i.e., non-home improvement, household items. On the other hand, some homeowners think a lot, and care a lot, about the kind of washer or refrigerator they buy. That's all about what study authors call "badge value." The more that people can potentially brag about something they bought — like that new refrigerator — the more time and effort they will put in to researching it before they actually buy. Furniture and appliances have badge value, toilets don't.
Windows and doors fall somewhere in between, and brand loyalty plays little role in the decision. Seven out of 10 homeowners bring no notion of brand to their window or door purchase. It's not that window and door manufacturers don't try to get their attention; it's that so much time passes between purchases.
How many times would you replace the windows in your home? Once? Twice?
So the homeowner, newly in the market for these products, starts with few preconceived ideas. And the first place he or she goes is … online.
Info via the Internet
"Window and door shoppers tend to spend a lot of time online," says Katie Geraty, vice president /director of strategy and planning for The Integer Group.
Though plenty of window and door showrooms exist, people looking to buy those products are twice as likely to go on the Internet — for pricing and reviews — as they are to visit a product showroom. It's not that they don't want to see, touch, or feel the product; it's that by the time they get to that showroom stage, they've narrowed the choices considerably.
"Window and door shoppers often wait to visit the store until they are ready to sit down and buy," Geraty points out. And smartphones, which give users instant access to the Internet, from anywhere, are "changing research."
Post-Purchase Loyalty Strategy
Who are these buyers? The authors group them into four categories. But essentially it comes down to how much enthusiasm they bring to the purchase. Is it a chore or an adventure? Do they look forward to buying windows? Do they see it as another form of excitement? Do they know that they have to do it but postpone making the purchase because of anticipated stress?
Having done their homework, window and door buyers are typically "confident going in, but often feel overwhelmed with all the options." For window and door buyers, "anxiety is always there," Geraty says. And anxiety translates to fear and frustration.
The biggest fear? "Making a mistake," she says. The faster you help them get past that feeling, the quicker they will buy.
Creating Brand Advocates
The study also describes strategies for turning buyers of big-ticket home improvement items into "brand advocates." No surprise, those who view the shopping experience as fun and who look forward to it are the ones most likely to "take action" (i.e., comment on your company and its services) after the job is complete.
The study's authors advise big-ticket sellers to ensure that the relationship with those clients continues: "Give them a forum and engage them in two-way dialogue when they seek it." In addition, customers who submit warranty information "open the door for relationship-building." Offer customers an incentive to buy something else from your company or an incentive to talk about what you did for them on social media.

Sharing libraries between .Net Core and .Net Framework applications
There are several options for sharing projects between .Net Core and .Net Framework applications. As ever with Core development, you tend to be constrained by your dependencies and the frameworks they support.
Compiling projects for multiple frameworks
Although you cannot directly combine complied .Net Core and .Net framework assemblies you can potentially use multi-targeting to explicitly compile a Core project for more than one framework. However, the tooling for is a immature and the experience tends to be pretty rocky. This situation is likely to persist now that we are transitioning away from project.json files back to to csproj and MSBuild in Visual Studio 2017.
Multi-targeting in the out-going project.json structure is achieved by adding multiple entries to the "frameworks" sectuib. The example below shows a simple configuration file for a class library that will compile for both .Net 4.6.2 and .Net Standard 1.6 (i.e. .Net Core):
{ "version": "1.0.0-*", "dependencies": { "NETStandard.Library": "1.6.0" }, "frameworks": { "net462": {}, "netstandard1.6": {} } }
For the new .csproj files you need to add a "TargetFrameworks" section as shown below:
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk"> <PropertyGroup> <TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp1.0;net462</TargetFrameworks> </PropertyGroup> </Project>
Both these approaches have the same effect. When you compile the project you'll see two separate versions of the output in the BIN folder, one for each of the frameworks that you have specified.
As with any Core-related development, you will be at the mercy of your project dependencies. Multi-targeting will only work if all the dependencies in the project also support your target frameworks. Some implementation differences can be smoothed over with conditional compilation statements, but if one of your dependencies is not available at all to a framework version then you will need to consider an alternative.
Referencing a multi-targeted project in Visual Studio
The catch with multi-targeting is that you can't reference these libraries directly in a .Net Framework project due to a limitation of the Visual Studio tooling. In Visual Studio 2015 you can create a direct reference in Visual Studio using the "Add Reference" dialog but this won't let you directly access any members or even see them in the object browser. In Visual Studio 2017 you can't even be able to create the reference.
One workaround for this is to ship your cross-framework library as a NuGet package. This can be done easily using the "pack" command as shown below:
This will automatically package up both versions of the assembly into a NuGet package along with the debug symbols so they can be pulled directly into both types of project. It works, but it creates an awkward development workflow where you pack and update a library every time you make a change. This is not really viable for assemblies being worked on within the same development project.
For project.json based projects you also had the option of building .Net Framework applications as an .xproj-based Core project. The configuration below shows what a basic project.json file looks like for a console app that runs using v4.6.2 of the .Net framework:
{ "version": "1.0.0-*", "buildOptions": { "emitEntryPoint": true }, "dependencies": { "SharedCoreLibrary": "1.0.0-*" }, "frameworks": { "net462": {} } }
This stripped-down file only has one entry in the "frameworks" section and the project will compile and run on top of the .Net framework. You can reference multi-targeted libraries through this project as well as adding in any other .Net framework dependencies and packages that you want to use. One hopes that a similar level of cross-platform operation will soon be available for projects developed using the new .csproj syntax.
Using portable class libraries
Given how messy multi-targeting is then a more viable option may be to compile and share assemblies as a portable class library (PCL). With a bit of fiddling this can be used to create a single artefact that can be referenced directly from both a .Net framework and .Net Core project.
When you first create a portable class library, the template offers to target the library for .Net 4.6 and .Net Core 1.0 as shown below:
This will work fine with a .Net Framework project and the.Net Core project will even let you add the reference and compile. The catch is that the Core project will issue build warnings and you won't get any Intellisense in Visual Studio.
The only way to get a PCL working smoothly against both types of project is to switch the portable class library to compile against a version of .Net Standard:
- In the solution explorer, right-click on the project name and select "Properties"
- In the "Targeting" section of the "Library" page there will be a link saying "Target .Net Standard Profile".
Clicking on this will reload the project with references re-jigged to compile against .Net standard as opposed to the default PCL profile. You should now be able to reference the library from .Net framework and .Net Core projects smoothly, complete with Intellisense and hassle-free compilation.
Once again, whether this approach is going to work for you depends on the framework versions required by your project dependencies. Given the limited support for .Net standard across NuGet it may be difficult to build anything beyond basic data classes as PCLs that can be fully shared between .Net Core and the .Net framework.

I cannot seem to get this kext to compile on my powerbook. It is the driver for nVidia overclocking software that I am working on. Could someone please compile this for me? I give many thanks to whoever helps me. I need it compiled for ppc64 ppc i386 x86_64.
What exactly is stopping you from compiling it? Not a whole lot of people are going to have powerpc SDK's anymore since its dead im afraid ps. it compiles for me, just dont have ppc
Use Xcode. The kext you posted as a zip-file has an Xcode project, so I don't know why this wouldn't be obvious. Sign up at the free (non-paying) level as an Apple Developer. Then sign in using that account and download the version of Xcode appropriate for your OS version. Older versions of Xcode, i.e. the 3.* and earlier version numbers, are freely available as downloads from the Apple Developer Center. To find them: 1. Login at: https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac/index.action 2. Click the "View all downloads" link. 3. Type xcode or xcode 3 in the search box. Each individual version of Xcode download should list what the minimum OS version is. You can also read Xcode release notes to find which Xcode version was the last one to have PPC-targeted compilers.
Although I may be wrong (and I know you'll come out of the woodwork to correct me, which is what I'm counting on) I'm under the impression KEXT's may now be signed with your Apple Developer certificate and can be traced back to you.
You are new to programming and you are trying to play with a driver?!? Thats not dangerous at all.... Open the xcode project file, itll be the blue icon in your source folder. When it opens hit build

That bike is redonk!!! And does anyone know what brand those platform clipless pedals are?? I love how wide they look compared to my mallets...
Nevermind the bike, where is the story on Cedric riding? Some people were saying he was done with his career, and here he is less than half a year later riding. Props.
CG fought back, worked his butt off, and is now happily shredding the DH bike. Just a few weeks ago he won an enduro event by a minute over Barel. Far from "done." He'll soon start training for the 2013 World Cup season.
With all the emphasis on carbon they still use the Thompson masterpiece posts and e13 alloy cranks! Those would be among the first parts that I would go carbon with. Sweet bike though.
The Thomson Masterpiece is actually lighter then any carbon post that is comparable in strength by nearly 40 Grams.
Did they not weigh the Session 9.9? It weighs less than 7.9 lbs with the same shock... http://www.vitalmtb.com/photos/features/Trek-Session-9-9-Project-Flyweight,2800/Project-Flyweight-The-28lb-Trek-Session-9-9-DH-Bike,26669/bturman,109
the title of the article is The Full Carbon 2013 Santa Cruz V10c - 'World's Lightest and Strongest Downhill FRAME'
Still a sweet frame, just not *the* lightest.
According to one of the engineers at Santa Cruz that posted on another forum that they did weigh several of the other frames in that weight range and the trek weighed 8.2lbs actually. I also saw an independent post of the trek frame minus shock on a scale and the shock weight and it came out to exactly 8.2.
FTW: The Trek Session 9.9's ACTUAL WEIGHT (not claimed) is just over 8 lbs with the Fox DHX RC4.

Regulatory component of the cyclin D1-CDK4 (DC) complex that phosphorylates and inhibits members of the retinoblastoma (RB) protein family including RB1 and regulates the cell-cycle during G1/S transition. Phosphorylation of RB1 allows dissociation of the transcription factor E2F from the RB/E2F complex and the subsequent transcription of E2F target genes which are responsible for the progression through the G1 phase. Hypophosphorylates RB1 in early G1 phase.
