Nice one, glad it’s gone to a good home!Took the Ripley out for the first proper outing. Rides like an absolute dream.

I was thinking more of your child-minding duties this week, but yeah - toughen up mate!What? Having Covid wasn’t a good enough excuse mate? I’ll try better next time.
They are indeed. Not too bad.. better than expected, especially given 175mm cranks. Would like to get an extra 10mm out of the SIDs.. cut down bottom out bumper maybe, but definitely hacky.Assuming the SIDs are at 120, how are you going with pedal strikes @Isaakk
Good to see even more trails going in on your network. Pretty damn fine, as a local, and definitely worth a visit from any mainlanders heading down on the ferry.Took the Ripley out for the first proper outing. Rides like an absolute dream. Aspen/Rekon tyre combo definitely not enough, going to need to add some weight with something more suited I think. Oh, and boost wheels - the chainline is awful with a 3mm spacer lol.

Roadkill Rudolph was my main “What the?”…Why is there a dog eating a Joy sign?
I served venison steaks in a stroganoff style sauce as the main one Christmas. Fuck that was a good meal! It blew a few minds and supe gran asked for hers to get another lick in the pan to "well done".Roadkill Rudolph was my main “What the?”…
Mum does a Morrocan style roast rabbit with (IIRC) almonds, sultanas, a little orange water and some spices. It is ridiculously delicious. I highly recommend it!I served venison steaks in a stroganoff style sauce as the main one Christmas. Fuck that was a good meal!

Maybe roast rabbit this Easter?

Fark, that's a ripper...During the rains the last 2 weeks I stripped and serviced everything on the bike. 1.5 hours into the first ride, put my foot off the pedal and I think it got caught a little on a rock and the pins hit the back of my leg. Looked down and could see was white and no blood. 6 hours in a hospital and 9 stitches later. Also get my new 5-10's delivered today...

Yep muscles and tendons fine. I rode out the 10 mins and was walking fine. The thing that worried me was I had no pain and no bleeding. Only used some neurofen at 1am last night because I think I kicked it in bed.Fark, that's a ripper...
Always scarier when it doesn't bleed.
Heal up mate. Muscles/tedons okay presumably?
There is a thread for this and people can choose to go in there or not - Instead of randomly scrolling past carnageI have a before picture if people want to see it?
The dude next to me in the surgery had tried to run up the opposite way on escalator while wearing thongs. The bottom half of his toe didnt clear one of the steps.
Hope you heal up well.During the rains the last 2 weeks I stripped and serviced everything on the bike. 1.5 hours into the first ride, put my foot off the pedal and I think it got caught a little on a rock and the pins hit the back of my leg.
