And today I did......

[zigzag]

It lives! Nice one velo, would be a shame to instantly consign it to the Bike Station.

Washed the iDrive after Kirroughtree, and contemplated it's future. Will try and cure it's sketchy front-end with a decent tyre (Kenda Nevegal Stick-E, well I like them). Some more air in the rear shock too I think. It seems like I spend the first half of every ride on it trying to get comfortable (is the frame too big for me, or is it just the high BB?) and find some confidence, typically after the front-end washes out. Then the 2nd half of the ride, it all seems to click and it begins to make sense. If I can't get my head around it, an On-one 456 may be in my future.

Also finished putting in a new headset on the Rockhopper, as well as new 16t cog on the rear and dropping the half-link from the chain. Also swapped out the bars, seat and seatpost so I can use them on the Stumpie. Looks right although it wasn't what I originally was planning, but means I can now move on with the build.

Decided to have a recovery day after yesterday, remember guy replenish your carbs after a hard session.
Dug the 'V' (Stealth) project out for a photo session so I could record the project.

nice dale- should look cool

I love the on-one geo. ZZ was out on it today and it is just perfect (for me anyroads) indeed would consider a geared version with better tubes than the gas pipes I have at the momenet

my legs are sore after my second run out, 10 is going to kill me :?

I think that looks great to eck but I must admit to not really getting the big bouncy thang and as such do not know what looks cool and what does not so my opinion is pretty worthless really

Went round the front and saw the very F#CKERS walkin down the road, into the car to see if I could see them lost the B#STARDS :x
