SLOW afternoon spruit ride - 05 Dec 2012

[RockCoach]

 

 

I will be joining 17h30.... wont make 16h15 today....

 

As for my 29er.... dont judge some bikes just have big wheels.

 

You see its just that the big wheels tend to be a hassle. Look at Karma whose big wheel let him down and BBN's big wheel couldn't roll over an obstacle without self destructing.

Im not joining this week.

I am still 'broken'. Slept for 14hours Monday eve (one go) and I woke up still tired, ate something and went back to sleep.

Dont know whats up, but I guess I am off the bike till I get over this.

Have new big wheel/tyre, tubeless this time, and have been practicing my bunny hops, so hopefully no more blow outs!! Anyway, last ride was 2x26er flats to 1x29er, if I'm not wrong???

I would like to do down with the early group, and then back up meet the late group and from there go up.

Only problem is, apparently william nicol is impossible to cross at that time

If the early group is heading down first then I will join. William Nicol isn't too bad to cross. There are 2 sets of traffic lights that it can be done safely at.

Something's come up at work, not sure if I'm gonna be able to make it today
