I thought for Strava to be working you had to be masturbating at the same time

Well if you think that'll help I'll give it a go :shock:

I don't think it counts if someone else does it for you.

Anyway, today I started pulling the Kona The King (pish name BTW) apart for its long overdue winter rebuild (pivots, bearing & suspension) so I hauled out one of my old favourites the '08' Specialised Stumpjumper Expert, it was like slipping into a old girlfriend all the old memories came flooding back, the fun, the tears, the tantrums, the external B/B's, talking of which that seems to be the only thing that was needing serious attention. I expect a B/B to last more than 8 years :evil: then again if you ride like a God these things will probably happen anyway, it took me 7 minutes to find a NEW XT B/B from my spares dept, long I know but its the aftermath of the workmen turning the house upside down I can't find a bloody thing :facepalm:
