Huge shout out to @kip01 for this find, a v3 Santa Cruz nomad at a price that meant I could put aside my apprehension for carbon because who cares if it's disposable [emoji2369] I've put a couple of hours into cleaning off the dodgy old protective tape and adding my own superior dodgy...

I was 15 years off the bike and totally not confident I'd remember how to do it. Bought a relatively cheap cfmoto that I had no intention of keeping and just plunged head first back into it. Turns out muscle memory was strong and most of the important stuff came flooding back pretty much...

I'm out. Tried it today and I have to concentrate wayyyyyy too hard to not grab the clutch [emoji38] It works, it doesn't kersplode the gearbox, it's probably faster, but it's not for me. I guess I'll just rest easy knowing it'll have my back if I miss the clutch from time to time, but the...

I don't hate other people confirming why I couldn't not buy that bike, and putting it into better words than I can muster [emoji108] Still not sure on the shifter tho, I'll concentrate and give it a whizz on the weekend. Sending the bill to you if the bike self destructs on me [emoji6][emoji38]...

The mere thought hurts my phantom gearbox [emoji51] Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk

My shiny new xsr comes with a quick shifter, not that I'd know, I don't think I could train my brain to leave the clutch alone if I tried Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk

I used to celebrate it and loved it. I still want to do that, and I'll join the riots if they try to take my day off work away from me. But I'm not interested until the angst is gone, and I feel like the invasion day types have a better argument than the flag cape types in the long run. I don't...

The second worst thing about Alex's killing is the absolute buy in so many fuckers still have. The most "sane" ones are just saying he shouldn't have been there, it steps from there to violently resisting arrest to being there to cause maximum damage with his second magazine to his phone...

Weird, I found the opposite. Xt to XTR groupset actual feel and performance difference I found meh. XTR looks a lot nicer and had a smoother action I guess, but XT absolutely gets the job done and a teeny but less friction on my gear changes makes nil difference to my ride. On the flip side...

This summer is my second season of masters baseball, it's a great semi-social league that doesn't take anything too seriously except the post game drinks. This season I've been playing with the son of my first ever coach, and Monday night he brought my old coach along for a game too. The old...

Looking for a bit more travel, but it sounds exotic [emoji848] Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk

I had to double check and make sure I hadn't gone full idiot mode and mistaken it for a huffy or something [emoji38] I know bugger all about this brand The number 5 probably means something and it probably has nothing to do with mambos. Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk

Oooh, another thread for me! I started playing baseball again a few years ago after 25 years away from it, was cautious at first with my shoulder that I know I had issues with but as I kept playing I got more confident with it and eventually started having some pretty severe issues. Was...

I've worked with the public transport ticketing system for a long ass time now and everything you're saying meets my expectations. It really brings out the cream of society and for the life of me I can't understand how real estate agents might think their note of "close to public transport"...

I've used stuff similar to the top one on my stationary trainer because qr just can't keep up with my raw animal power and keeps coming loose (Or the trainer design is a bit lacking and really intended for the bike to be removed and refitted from time to time, take your pick). It's been...

Enduro? That's an odd name, I'd have called it chazwazza Sent from my Pixel 8 using Tapatalk

I'm definitely cool with something other than an intense, I've just spent over a decade not bothering to look elsewhere because the tracer was so capable. Pivot firebird from ~10yr ago looks hot Nukeproof mega too Yt Capra maybe Saw a production privee shan, maybe steel is the go? ...might...
