Well done guys!

V-brakes and suspension forks?! that's luxury for a retro steed! looking good though, hopefully there should be a good turn out of retro bikes at the Glentress ride.


Jamie, it's the Scottish Enduro Series round at Glenlivet Trail Centre, I wimped out and opted for the shorter "Enduro-Lite" category, I'm now classed as a "Veteran" :shock:

 

[Jamiedyer]

I'm sure it will be a good event jimo. I dont think doing the enduro lite would constitute wimping out.
I think nearly all of us are veteran now, with a few grand and super veteran thrown in
If you've just turned veteran then I suppose its a tag thats not appreciated, at least in the road side it starts earlier and you are a master.

Day 3 of the back to using the bike for every journey no matter how long or short regime.

KFC for lunch and pasta for tea.
I'll be on the protein shakes next :?

I devoured half a jar of peanut butter the other day,Well it was actually Cashew nut butter only ingredient is finely ground cashews so is suitable for anyone*. 1000kcal/jar :shock: and its a small jar.

*except those with an allergy

Better watch out Jim, you've got some pretty serious competition.

Might give it a go later in the year. Will see what the missus says (she has my balls in a cupboard) and if I can camp/ kip over somewhere.

 

[Jamiedyer]

If you come way north then there is a bed here for you.
We could do a few coastal rides here and then hit some mountains just to the south with epicyclo.

Thats very gracious. I may need to invest in some new knees and a smaller granny ring
