Yeah I'm not a fan of the cold but it's nice to see the sun and blue skies

Looks great - what's the bike? I'm tempted by a new Marin every time I call in at Hayball's.

Hello. It is a 2019 Pine Mountain. It is great fun.

Considering a frame swap

old age brings its specific needs, ie. full-sus and added torque?


how do you like the Cascade?

Yesterday evenings ride was ace, and defo needed before the rain comes. The trails were nice and grippy with next to no mud. Perfect Still nippy but once again, with layers and elevation, it's rarely cold.

Looking to get further afield with the longer days, and has anyone been to Cardinham Woods recently? Small trail centre/routes but might be handy for sessioning and I'm always up for an exploration.

We had a severe weather warning overnight for 'damaging winds' so even though it was bright and sunny, I procrastinated for most of the day while the gusts came through at up to 70km/h. Finally cracked at 7pm and did a bit of singlespeeding around the local dirt roads. Was tempted to go further afield but the best route was into the teeth of the gale and that was just unpleasant. A short and rather unsatisfactory ride.
