    The rise & fall of U-Brakes (?)

    My first BMX had the same type of rear brake (and a gyro), and all it was good for was gently slowing down/controlling speed.

    1995 Sunn Vertik 2 - 'Tis a new bike on page 4

    The steering felt a bit weird with the 155mm. stem. So when this 120mm. Ringlé I'd been watching for a few weeks came down to a reasonable price, I decided to grab it. The closest to a side-view I've got of it yet I think this pic from last night's shake-down ride turned out pretty cool

    Today's Ride

    I missed yesterday's retro mtb group ride because I needed to sleep in. But I met up with some of the guys after for a few beers and a chat, and to check out their rides: Then I went to a proper rock concert for the first time in over 1½ year :D

    Copenhagen is hosting WorldPride. So my Sunday ride went through a city clad in rainbow colours. The city hall square almost felt like things were back to normal: The Royal Theatre: A sign I came across on the way home: I also got a couple of new pins for my jackets. One of the...

    Today's Ride

    Yesterday's ride, listening to some tunes through a ghetto mounted Bluetooth speaker (as it's too unsafe to wear earbuds when riding) was just the ticket after a tough week at work. And since I ended up being in the neighbourhood, I decided to pay a surprise visit to an old friend

    1995 Sunn Vertik 2 - 'Tis a new bike on page 4

    I remembered that I had a Softride stem lying around, and decided to try it out yesterday I was planning on a test run at the local pump track. But it started to rain, so that was a no-go. Instead I cruised some dirt paths in the same area, and got my tyres good and muddy :) The...
