Little Things You Love

Loads of kids digging jumps in local parks through lockdowns. One council showing that it's possible to be flexible and respond in an understanding and measured way.

The best part is that they are all doubles.

That, and they’re in my 5kms.

Doubles will lead to carnage...aka bulldozer.

TBH at my age I’d be more likely to hit some oh so gentle tables.
I’m amazed at the council’s attitude. Down Yarra trails way it’s like that scene in Apocalypse Now where they build the bridge by day and someone comes along and fucks it up every night.

One of the guys in the front row of your first photo looks massive!

Handy to have some talented locals to ride the tracks for the opening...

Found this bike rack in the council cleanup:

Will donate to the local cafe. We need one there.

That's a sweet find.

Have you given an in-depth comparison of the sc vpp vs DW link?

 

[Ultra Lord]

Kinda a pointless comparison when the sc is a short travel xc bike and the ibis is a burly trail bike.

They are much closer in style than what I've owned from the respective camps. I love both platforms. Just curious if there is +/- on more similar travel frames? I know my 951 feels slightly more plush than the m4x did...

So, so close. One was designed in 2009 & has 100mm travel. The other released in 2018 & has 147mm travel.

I had 100 vs 160/200...

Well done.

Well done.

It made me feel very masculine for a time.

I have been eyeing off that book for months for the kids but $58 delivered is too steep for me. Still super cool idea for those with the cash.
