T-Bob Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Right kids, heading down to Tokai for the weekend boogie. Issue is I've just washed and lubed both rides and now torn... do I ride my dualie as I have for the last 2 weeks. I'm getting the tops of Cobra down through snakes and a couple of DH sections wired, getting good flow and want to go harder and faster or do I mix it up with my 160mm steel HT 650b which is slower, ignore the brakes and hold on for dear life? Love the HT on the nth 'burbs for playful, dumb ass fun but tokai is rolling with a few more cobbles, gaps and drops.. or should I just man up, not worry about the speed and see if I come out the other side and if I don't then just get up laughing!
Jewbacca Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 All of Tokai is smashable on a hard tail.. comfortably. Just trust your flow and hit it.
T-Bob Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 All of Tokai is smashable on a hard tail.. comfortably. Just trust your flow and hit it. Just what I was thinking but not backing myself. Don't want to waste a ride suckling in tha' gardens and coming up short on drops. Should listen to my instinct and that the kids are asleep early, Mrs is out and I've lucked into Kill Bill 1, a half decent Pinot and a bit of Gemsbok for a warm CT evening man braai! The signs are there, stars are aligned. Have to ignore the Tranny looks hot!
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Dude. Tokai is AWESOME on a long travel HT.
T-Bob Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 Dude. Tokai is AWESOME on a long travel HT. Okay, okay... HT it is. Been keen to give it a shake up there so will lock it and load it and see how it goes. Will be riding Sunday so can always take run the Tranny then as well.
T-Bob Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 Hardtails for hardtrails ! Bwhaahahahaha.... to true.
