This post should have been Saturday but was too knackered.
Did Glentress Black climb, red descent on Topanga with DaveDH and a vast assortment of others. Fantastico the Topanga really handles well off road and downhill, almost as good as iDrive
Was going to take iDrive but the sapping power of rear bounce when you have lots of climbing was not for me, no rear lockout. This however has put an idea into my head. Sell iDrive frame and some bits, keep the rest including the fabby forks and buy one of those long travel fork hardtail frames. Result good climbing and great descending. Sorry iDrive, your days are numbered :roll:
Other than that my bike building mojo has evaporated so GT Pantera and Trek Y3 plus other bits and bobs will be boxed, covered with a tarpaulin and stored at the back of the shed until spring. Work is knackering me at the mo and resultant fatigue is destroying my will
Finally, get better Eck, things you'll do to get out of a bit of proper XC
