I’ve managed to get out at least once a week without the kids for the last month. I’m still in the sore arse stage unfortunately though it is getting easier quicker than I expected. Probably just means I was far less fit than I thought I was (which wasn’t very much). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had a dicky knee but it appears that actually riding seems to help it. Feels a lot better as does the rest of me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGinge Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 It has been nice being being out the last couple of weeks, managed to catch some nice sun without being too hot. The nettles aren’t too big yet either; didn’t stop one of the fellas from work landing in a fairly large patch last Thursday night though.

rushboy2004 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Love the cool but sunny evening we have been having recently. Good to get out for a hour to unwind after work. My worn out 2012 Specialized Hardrock Sport Disc The chain jumped and jammed on my front derailleur the other night and left me with a some bent teeth on my middle gear. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasminee4 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Oh hi, new bike day a week ago. This thing is a beast. Most recently I'm coming off a 2020 process 134DL 27.5 so the wagon wheels and back to a 6" bike make me feel like nothing can stop me. 2021 Chilcotin 151, threw on my oneup 210mm dropper, other than that she's stock. And raw. So beautifully raw. Did I mention it's raw? Also... I'm not a new account. I have one going back to last few years but lurked un logged in for years and can't seem to recover my account. Oh well.... I hadn't realized I made this one 4 years ago now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyper7ftxoutlaw Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Here’s my newest 1! A gt helion 2016. It’s a weird bike because it’s accidentally ahead of it’s time. It’s a down country bike (from before they were called that) and it has high pivot suspension! It rides awesome as it’s my first full squish. × Also, anyone else go the the Surrey hills?

LunsfordRich Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Got a few but the main two are a Cotic Solaris hardtail that I built up, and an Orange Switch 6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work as a bike tech so a lot of what I do involves building frames up. Always much more satisfying than just a straight boxed bike. I do enjoy a wheel build to!

Craigyboy83 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Yeah been riding for 25 years, I was lucky to grow up in a great area for riding so it has just been part of life for me, mostly raced and rode Downhill until my thirties then I switched to riding and racing enduro, now I just ride for fun and fitness. Just built up this new frame as a warranty replacement from SantaCruz after my old frame broke (lifetime warranty is a great thing). I like to run a big burly bike as we have the terrain locally and it’s always what I enjoy the most. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
