  1. Between two cork trees... EDIT:
  2. Francis forgot the poorly executed pavement curb hop (more commonly know as the snakebite)...and clearly not "unpuncturable"...pull out the drawing pin/nail/thorn/screw/cactus and you got a flat! Fail...
  3. Not enough "like" buttons!
  4. Changing hemispheres...
  5. Elevation: 280 000ft Ave Speed: Mach 1.7 Dammit, forgot my GoPro!
  6. Who woulda thought...started off selling a magazine at varsity then LP's via mail-order, started an Airline and then a Space company and now flying to space...Good Luck Sir Richard! BTW he arrived at the "Spaceport" on a white Trek road bike complete with shipping flat pedals with reflectors and wearing takes!!! Legend!
  7. Can't find the old "Post your videos" thread...
  8. Ok so now I see...what teamwork!!
  9. Cavendish...again! HTH did he get out from behind that group!?
  10. Edge owners: You can edit the startup screen to display a contact number: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/08/display-number-garmin.html
  11. Is the grader just ahead of you, round that corner?!
  12. Cois, your bravery to share your story here just blows me away, the entire hub community wishes you well....
  13. They display this stuff too much in your face and right next to one another....we don't stand a chance.....barbag and shirt combo..dammit.... Edit: bar bag feedback...as I read reports earlier, the straps are a bit finicky but very secure, I won't have an issue with the plastic clips scrapping the bars as my bars are leathered to close to the stem....waterproofness not tested (rain is not expected here in the desert for some months to come!) but will soon be back in the Cape so that will happen fast! Volume wise, I could fit 2 water bottles or one full size bidon in it...no issues, has separate front zippered sleeve for mobile, easy to access. Very good material quality and appears extremely tuff and well made with reflective tape in front...only real negative is access to main compartment ...but that I reckon is the same for almost every bar bag if you have an out-front, stem-mounted Garmin device with light combo..... Lekka piece of kit....
  14. Late night dip...
  15. Here's one...not much faster and 2 things.... 1. They got no music so there's that....I think they wanted to have the wind whistling in the mic so it "seemed" faster!!!???? 2. @1.33 this plonker (JK) gives #12...the 10%er....a miss......B-line!!!! (JK = just kidding...he's not the GOAT for no reason!) Also 3: they mention it's "moist" again to hint that they may just have to ride slowly!!!! (Also JK....!????)BTW Moist is how we like it!!!!
  16. Caught trying too sneak past my outside...
  17. Thanks but No Thanks!....
  18. Wow! Many happy childhood holiday memories in one of these!
  19. It's been a while, Dubai has more pretty lights...if that's possible!
  20. Are you also saying they're flat???
  21. Waking up this thread.....hoping we can get there soon!
  22. Snap, I been following this re-build, fascinating stuff, workmanship and forgotten crafts, the real reason for YouTube's existence...
  23. Not a bad price....box and papers? Golden rule for this type of purchase...buy the seller....if you can, verify authenticity via third party eg AD...buyer beware there a plenty of good fakes and dodgy sellers in this universe....great watch...good luck
  24. You! My first memory...when the airport shuttle pulls into Les Gets and you look up the hill on the right for your first glimpse of nirvana, my reaction: V%^^&%&^%K, that's steep! I sh*^*&#t myself, I had no idea what I had let myself into! Between Les Gets and Morzine, my head was spinning...I got 2 weeks here, how they hell and I gonna get down those trails! The rest is history! Pleney remains one the best trails in the area after all our visits....every ride is different!! Each time you go down there, you try another angle...it really is the downhillers downhill! The best trips of a lifetime, hands down..... EDIT: Found Pleney run video.....
