Guest EdEdEd Posted June 9, 2014 Share That moment you come back after a lekker 3hour session of base training... Your legs have that lovely tired rhythmic feel (like after being on a trampoline too long)... You scratch your strap chin (ooh lekker)... The swear has caked around your sunnies and you wipe your face with a wet hand to release them...You release your shoulders from the bib - blissThe you feel it... The pressure release prompted increased sensationThe burn creaps in You forgot to put shammy cream!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonky Posted June 9, 2014 Share That moment when...you get a flat and pull over to the side of the trail and start going through your saddle bag: 1. Patch etc? CHECK2. Tube? CHECK3. Multi-Tool? CHECK4. Bombs? CHECK, CHECK & CHECK5. Tyre levers? CHECK & CHECK All sorted... 6. Bomb adaptor??? Then you remember that you left it on the stoep table the last time you fiddled with your bike...

ratherberidin' Posted June 9, 2014 Share That moment when you find a sponge/buffer thingy that belongs on the inside of your helmet in the kitchen.. and realize the dog left it there.. and run to your room to find your newish Rudy helmet in thousands of tear sized pieces on the floor.. AND then see your Adidas evil eyes on the floor too, but only half of it, AND THEN get sh@t on because there are dog paw marks on the bed, where he stole the helmet, the glasses and every single last drop of my happiness and dignity for this month. I hate student budget, I hate that I love my dog, I hate that he's nice to me, I'm generally hateful this week. But thankful (ya, right) that my dog reminds me of why one shouldn't get attached to material things, but this is bike related so I dont get it. Anyway. ffs. Thats it.

deanbean Posted June 9, 2014 Share That moment when you realize you took way too much speeds into this rocky decent and braking is barely keeping speed down nevermind slowing down and you arent riding as much as holding on.........then you just release the brakes and ride on faith in your equipment, that feeling when you clear it...
