Dignity/name/manhood/brain cells....neh I take any chance I get to combine my bike, my mates and my little Braai... I was trying to describe the modders night ride but it sounds just like this weekends trailseeker!
I'm always down for groenies&fountains, I need to go find my name on those small jumps that put me to sleep. Haha I am seriously considering doing the night ride at modders with mates that night just for fun and then doing a 40km event on the Sunday. Sounds to be a good weekend, three rides and then 5days of chilling before hill2hill.
Snap! I looked down at one point and was doing 34kmph. got to confident on the first three and gave number four my all! The front wheel slipped out from under me on landing and I woke up 20-25m from the jump hahaha. Looking at how far I slid in the loose rock and sand I got off lightly with a few scrapes and bruises. My helmet however did not live to tell the tale.
Decided to test out my new bike on a few small jumps at 35ish kmph. The first three were awesome and the fourth, well... not so much haha! lost the front on landing and decided to take a nap on the dirt. Came off lightly with a few scratches and bruises thanks to my helmet!
hence why I am on a hunt for this tyre! it is awesome, I find I have to keep it at a low pressure (1.8 bar) otherwise it tends to start boucing around on rock at high speeds!
I quite enjoy the Conti Mountain King 2.4 on the front. I find it rolls nicely and grips the dirt like dog k@k to a shoe! The problem I have is I cant seem to find them apparently they have been discontinued.. Does anyone know where one could buy a few? (the cheaper the better!)
