Surely no one has the time to do that on deliberately ?
What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

Enter @pink poodle stage left with the hammer and block of wood ...The worst part is my wife asked me if I had the right tools to fit it, I said no so she said just to take it to the bike shop. I was supposed to take it for a test run tomorrow before next weeks Enduro at Maydena
Must be so disappointing dude, sorry to hear. Still, funny as fuck that a LBS could stuff that up so badly.
My MIL lives with us and is currently away, so my wife just wanted a nice day with her and my daughter swimming, shopping etc. To be honest, I didn't even properly look at the bike as I had some other stuff to do. I only had this page open, then started starring at the picture of the bike before realizing it was put in backwards

I reckon we could have that out and in the right way in under 45 minutes with the right hammer...

This is how the Pro's change out a headset, and he jumps this thing 50ft through the air..your over thinking it!
you only need to watch the first 2 mins if you want
but stop bitching and crack on

Gee, just ride it for a little while and enjoy the 70 degree+ head angle experience.
Grumble at the LBS on Monday.

Feelin' a bit rrranty
Bunnings for a big M12x150mm, couple of 2” washers and crank it down
Was going to say the same, get some curtain metal rod and slice up with a hacksaw for the headset remover..

What is it with Orange bikes. I think they should be ugly but then they are really hot. Nice rig.Well yesterday but close enough.
Finished it and rode it.

I think Orange have done a great job of being able to create such a good looking bike out of disused pie tins!

Put together the Torrent, figured out i'd forgotten something in collecting parts for it - rear brake now too short so will need a new hose. Took it out for a ride anyway, loving it so far. Geez those 210 OneUp droppers are long, so good to finally have enough drop.

Ace ride today... we only did 5km in an hour and a quarter ha ha. But a pretty steep climb and a lot of trees down to scramble over/under/through plus some exploring. It was the new trail connecting Lake Mountain with Marysville, and we were at the Marysville lower end. We were already stuffed from a steep walk, and only got a taste of the trail, but want to go back for sure. Coming down was a hoot. Already planning a drive to the top, ride down and Uber back up, or maybe take my VStrom to get back up.

I had my mate come off at about 35km/h about a bike length in front of me. Front wheel hit his bike and I was OTB, left knee and right forearm took the brunt, and left arm went right through his rear wheel. Left index finger took a big hit, very sore. Left knee is trash.
I jokingly thought to myself, and stated to the boys when I was lying in pain beside the track that I need my knee pads in case one of you fuckers come off in front. Next time I will wear the pads.
The bike is fine, I have these great BMX screw in bar caps and they did a great job. Time to use the huge amounts of sick leave I have. Hopefully all superficial, i can still bend my index finger but had to brake with my middle on the ride out.
Had a shower and cleaned it up. Before after and shot with old mate who had knee pads.
