I really cant .

the appeal of disc brakes, and more than 60mm of front suspension was too much this month .

and some many nice retro frames to buy .......................

Ride the stumpy you big girl ...

i let someone else ride it the other day and kept stopping them ride down the chalky downs way and made them ride on the grass verge instead in order to keep th eunderside of the down tube intact...

she ain't being allowed near the peak district.

:shock:

 

[ededwards]

....the big fast rocky downhill!

Oh lummee!

Max and I have checked this route especially for damage limitation - he rode his Shockabilly and his Buck Shaver, I rode my Ibis and Alpinestars without any scars... I don't think you need to be too paranoid about your bikes on this particular run - unless they're Kleins or you normally only run them on carpet :roll:

There are line options throughout the route where there are rocks - you just have to steer the right course and not fall off!

That's me f*cked then...

How can you ride both bikes? Thats pretty awesome skill there to say the least!

Anyway - whos bringing what and riding what - name your beast.

Im working out what bike I can afford to break....

okay it looks as if somebody is smiling on me and hopefully I'll have the DOGS BOLX finished in time and so have that and Yeti with me!

I'll probably bring the Litespeed. Although if I have time to sort the Yo by Friday I may bring that.

Think you can add one more to the list. James W is coming along on saturday.



Since this is a Dad's Army themed ride who is who?

Jezza must be Pike

Other than that...

So we have

Jez = Pike
Mr K or Hilts = Wilson (both are suitably diffident)
tintin = Godfrey
Max = Frazer
Wu = Jones

any more for any more..
