Ozzie NL Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 Choices choices, what to ride. Cant decide. My wife says it is because I have too many bicycles. I accused her of being childish and threatened her with immediate divorce. There have been numerous studies that have shown that you cannot have too many bicycles. You cant argue with science.1555652524215.jpegSurely that roadie deserves a chance to have its wheels touch the ground again???

RocknRolla Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Rode out to Avianto this morning, Lots of mtb traffic from the front, confirming my late start. Hit the blue trail, but I soon realised that my mojo is nowhere to be found. Weird lines into and out of corners, no commitment on the climbs, it was dismal. So took it way easy from there on, so as to not cause bodily harm. Had a couple of stops, took some pics and ate some winegums. Germin battery died on the way home. Luckily I had a fashion accessory on my wrist, and could record the rest of the ride home. Rouxenator, DJR, Me rida my bicycle and 7 others 10
Bonus Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Hit the blue trail, but I soon realised that my mojo is nowhere to be found. Weird lines into and out of corners, no commitment on the climbs, it was dismal. I occasionally have a ride like that. If I've planned a tough or technical ride and it's just not coming together I call it a day and, like you, calm it down, enjoy the ride, take some photo's and most importantly avoid hurting myself or my bike!

Bonus Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) (From my "Pyrenees" Thread) I've been out on the (new rebuilt) bike a few times over the last week. The first ride felt a bit strange - I haven't been on an MTB for a month! Had to make a couple of small adjustments but now it feels good. Yesterday I went out twice. A long ride in the morning and then in the evening I put on my "racing kit" and went back out to put the bike through its paces. Happy to say that this bike is FAST! Here's a pic from earlier in the week - a ride along the river with the Pena Montenesa mountain in the background . . . . Edited April 20, 2019 by Bonus geomark, Skubarra, Andrew_Smith and 5 others 8

Mojoman Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Rode the cradle for what feels like the first time in ages.Nice morning out. Cooler temps means later starts....AD3A9448-E62B-4B1F-ACC1-B71FB2A00F1E.pngSome of the summer green has also disappeared from the highveld. Not my favorite time of the year.Agreed, soon it will be those hazy smokey frosty winter mornings and fields of black everywhere...Still, no mud to be found really so there is a benefit! RocknRolla 1
Bonus Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I see that mudguard works really well... I love the way BOTH sides of the mudguard are covered in mud! ;-)
Reme Le Hane Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I love the way BOTH sides of the mudguard are covered in mud! ;-)Yeah, don't think any mud guards gone be of much help in that much mud and that recon was not helping either, was sliding round every turn. Think it's still a bit early to switch to winter treads though. Bonus 1
BenReaper Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Remarkably like the Worcester, Robertson, Montagu area in appearance.Nogals nou dat ek so kyk. Lyk veskriklik baie soos die Rawsonville omgewing. DJR 1
PhilipV Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Think it's still a bit early to switch to winter treads though.I'm already contemplating taking the hardtail back to singlespeed for the winter.
