This really is a beautiful bike and that is a real HTFU saddle.????

Nice!....would like to go ride my boat rather than my bike around there.

Now a barbel must put up quite a fight on a fly rod.I have tried and tried with no results,even tried flyfishing for Bass but nada. This was before winter though,will try my hand at it again next year when things get a little less hectic at work.

Ooooohhh......that looks like a nice little swearing session.????

Would love to see that fork in action,but dont know if I'd trust it on my own bike.

On that note,here's my non-cycling related brand-new-second-hand purchase.

Lucky Basterd!????Congrats man,thats a super nice machine.Makes me extremely jealous.????

Went for a ride on some of our club trails that I havent ridden for some time now.

Nice bush.[emoji9]

Had nice run on the back roads around our beautiful valley this morning.

Should probably consider the skin cancer warning as I also work in shorts and shortsleeve shirt and spend 80% of my working day in the sun.Also my other hobby is fishing(more sun). Having said that my son is cursed with a fair skin and lighly gingered hair:ph34r: and my wife and I always see to it that he is properly protected when he is going to play outside.

Cool man,hope to see you around again.

Did the Funky Fynbos event in Gansbay yesterday.Was an amazing event with some beautiful views.Was to nackered to take photos,but my wife took this at the finish line.

Now thats a nice spot to chill.

Hey Nick,were you perhaps the guy wearing The Hub cycling kit?

Hey Goosebay,I thank you and the other organisers for a great event. I too had a feeling you were one of the guys at waterpoint 2 and I also enjoyed a short chat with you. Had to push my bike for most of that section as my legs were shot by then.I think having cycled from De Kelders via Grootbos to the event was a big contributing factor. Will contact you in the future as I come to Gansbaai to visit my folks once a month and would like to go ride these trails again sometime.

+1 on that,I am blessed with a slightly tanned skin,I dont wear sunblock and I dont like hats,so I sport a nice golden brown tan on my legs/arms/face all year round.

Was thinking this aswell earlier.

Yeah,from the videos it looks like a nice,rough,non pampered trail,with some nice climbs and rewarding downhills. I might opt to ride this one and enjoy the scenic views rather than race it.

So who else will be there this weekend,I've been looking forward to this event for a while now.

Think it would be best to consult youre LBS on the dis-asembly of the frame. But for starters you can call it a full-suspension or dual-suspension instead of softail. All the best with youre project.

A mate of mine has had 2 frames replaced by Momsen. First was his son's alu hardtail that cracked and as they had no stock they offered him a carbon frame at a huge discount. Second was his own alu dual-sus that cracked and was replaced within a week. I have however heard quite a few of these horror stories aswell so I am still undecided on my next purchase. We have two other big brand dealers in town aswell namely Scott and Merida and I have heard nothing bad about either of them.

How was the ride,better than the Zaskar?

Double post.

My little man is also mixing it up between the Y-bike and the bicycle. Hes got the pedaling down on the bicycle and the balancing on the Y-bike,but cant seem to bring the two together. Thats why I want to get the balance bike,looks like the logical step inbetween.
