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

[slowmick]

Erk - I honestly reckon it's worse when you have that fraction of a second to know what's about to happen but how it's already too late to do anything about it... Unfortunate that the trail turned out to not be made of a springboard like in the wrestling, but glad to hear it's only bruises. Rest up and go and show those trails who's boss soon!

yup - I was a long way up so I had enough time to contemplate possible excuses for home on the way down. I did have a small panic when i got up as I fell heavily on my bung shoulder. Can only blame myself - I built the bike up. It's done a couple of rides fine so I must have gone the extra mile yesterday. The stem is done up FT now ready for the weekend.

Nothing fancy and sadly no custard tarts, but away from the news for a couple hours to test out new pants, so that's nice

Missus dropped me off on the way home from work. Rained a fair bit before the ride and a 20min window during. Was a mint night for it though, even the flat bitcy slog home.

Enough rain for the mythical Youies grip to come out, or just enough to make the rocks slippery?

Slippery rocks up until the 20min rain intermission, with shiny hardpack patches in the berms

After the intermission grip city

First ride on this one after a service and Topazification. Damn hot now but you have take it while the going is good.

Bonus points for spotting the lizard.

It is worth a visit. I would still call it more of an XC leaning as there are still hills to climb but some fun section with features. There is a BMX and pump track.
There is a bit of everything and get pretty busy at times, but Greenvalleys it isn't.

Phwoar, that raw carbon is slick!

Love that managed to incorporate a real seat post clamp into the aero design.

I so badly want one!

I was all set for a lazy morning but I needed to get on the bike so I decided to gravel it and rode the Wangetti Trail a month after I last did it. There are parts which still challenge my legs but generally I feel much fitter!

 

[Rusty_68]

Oh you fucking cunt.

You really know how to charm a girl....

I might actually ride this one?? But then again

I so badly want one!

Give it a week or two and this one will probably be for sale. Always something new to build.

Sounds like something a gravel rider would say!

 

[Rusty_68]

A bit more carbon weave from today's build.
I F@#king hate putting frame wrap on BTW.

 

[slowmick]

Reminded more of this for ashes ride...

I just can't flip it on my phone
