What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

Sick of the Gloworm remote switch and it’s stupid rubber band mount breaking, so cobbled together an alternative with some polyethylene and a balloon. Will do a better job with mk2 but it’s still better than the factory version.

That’s the dream. When I get there, it’ll do the red Knight Rider strobe thing when stationary.

Maybe then you could talk to your lights instead of that... remote button assembly

Tested out new zebs, progressive coil, and longer dropper. Felt fantastic. Was also amazed at how more efficient sitting 20mm higher is for pedalling. I will note however that I had my nose hairs waxxed for the first time Friday which has increased my O2 intake by about 15% so it could have also been that. My nostrils are so incredibly smooth but breathing out of it is super loud to me now. 9/10 would recommend.

I cant stand the bomber cr gold so stripped that knob back to silver. All fork and shock knobs should be the same colour. That colour is black.

Got out for a relaxed ride. Rained a bit overnight and conditions were superb.

Tidy looking rig. Is that the YT specialist?

Had a sloppy ride at the Youies with a good BBQ after.

Much cleaning needed tomorrow.

Foreground is my new(er) bike, background my old...

That's right, the bike was just a cover...

Evie's Race Debut today. Went well, third overall, which is where I should be, so she's fast. I on the other hand. Well, let's say I'm not a sprinter. The round consisted of 1 x 6km time trial, then a 10km time trial 10 minutes after we finished.

Take away is I really need to learn to trust it and flow the corners better. We have shallow sand drifts through most of our corners where the Procaliber would kick a bit when it gripped up again. But the rear suspension soaked up that little kick and flowed. Just have to get my brain around it. It'll come with time.
