Well, she was supposed to go to rehab, but she said no, no no...

Very good. Had no problem stopping a bike as hefty as an e-bike. Lever feel is good, braking is controlled.

Spend some time on a Specialized Levo to test SRAM's EX1 groupset, their new Code RSC brakes and the Rockshox 1x remote lever.

On the 26th of June we will be able to tell you more (again) about this bike

A short break in Mosselbay was rewarded with several great early morning rides on my hardtail

Seeing as today is officially #tbt, I'll catch up on my exploids... Spend some time on Giant's 2018 Full-E

Ah man, Alonso's Indy assault comes to a grinding halt thanks to a smoking Honda engine...

Some rumours going so far as to say they will be Honda owned next year...

Alonso to skip Monaco GP to contest Indy 500 https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/alonso-to-skip-monaco-gp-to-contest-indy-500-892869/ "... McLaren has yet to officially confirm who will replace Alonso for the clashing Monaco F1 race, but retired 2009 champion Jenson Button is considered the favourite to land the seat."

Add to that his performance in wet or mixed conditions and his OWN admission that he rides best out front and struggles with focus and seed riding in the bunch. That makes him less of a good rider in my books.

I believe the correct vernacular is Pandophile

Exactly, but back then they were still figuring out the transition. We have gone down the rabbit hole and someone came out with our face up our own ass! Again, no problem with gravel bikes and gravel riding, but if you're looking to add front and rear suspension maybe, just maybe, there is already a bike for the type of riding you do. Maybe.

Pfffttt, that guy doesn't even have his typewriter with him. ZERO street cred.

And exhibit B

I present to you exhibit A

The use of gravel bikes have been on the rise. They are cool and quite fun depending on just how bad the terrain is. But though extended use riders have realised that a rigid (essentially) road / cx bike with adjusted geo is just not comfortable on some terrain and over longer rides. Hence the sudden increase of suspension forks being developed for them with some manufacturers even trying full suspension bikes. Really now? Isn't it time to pause and admit that what they are trying to do is invent a bicycle that is not quite like a gravel bike in that it is comfortable to ride over rough terrain at speed and in great comfort and that such a bike has actually been around for a while in the form of a MTB!? Next dev on a gravel bike will be a flat bar with some bar ends... Then even wider tyres.

That's why... McLaren sounds out Mercedes about F1 engine supplyhttps://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/mclaren-sounds-out-mercedes-about-f1-engine-supply-883240/?s=1
