Re: What you done t' your bike today
Very rarely come to this corner but.... 2007-2024. A triumph of Hope over adversity :smile: . https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53763261467_96ddac1afc_z.jpg Is it a goner now Reg.

Re: Todays ride
Glad to report, another 21 miles ticked off. Came to mums and having 'roti' :-bd Tomorrow is gonna be tough though as I have a 3 hour drive to work and finish at 2030. Either way, at this end or that, I'm gonna find it a toughie. Am hoping to get home and sleep for some time. Then family (wedding st...

Re: Todays ride
Nice one V. I love where you can ride your bike into get work/choose done. I've just picked a couple of home visits at York (40 miles from me) for next week. So that should interesting if I manage to ride there and back. Though if I catch the train then most of my wage will go on that (£22.50 per vi...

Re: Todays ride
Lacking of motivation and/or time or determination. I started up this little competition https://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=324439#p324439 to try and defend my light (not yet bought) to push me into action. On day 2 of consistent riding today so hopefully its working. Only 21 ...

Re: 21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!
If anyone saw this and wondered about entering. But couldn't due to lack of notice. Feel free to start today instead - if like me you lack motivation/time and need something to aim for - and day 1 (yesterday) can be had for free. I'm cheating a but cos I'm wearing my 100% gloves acquired from Allen ...

Re: 21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!
Oh... Ignore the Strava bit. General reports from people who don't use Strava will do. It's mainly a self motivating exercise but why not fight for it (Exposure rear light), hey

21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!
Idea is simple. Every day you go out and ride at least 21 miles without any significant coffee shop stops. First one to complete the set of 21 days (sorry. Strava or some form of recording the event required) also wins a rear Exposure light. USBc chargeable and all round a good egg (or, light). Othe...

Well I told him he shouldn't filming. But he insisted. Will be interesting to see what he ended up deciding. Ber he managed to get enough quality footage for a half hour popcorn movie.UnderTheRadars wrote: ↑Sat Jun 01, 2024 8:14 pm Ha! You should’ve been on the finish line to tell him that

Thanks Phil & Bob. Allan... Just about to complete the HT550 God Willing. So fantastic. He earned it as he's been consistently slogging away at all sorts of trail/weather for the past year or so

Re: Website problems?
Not sure if its related but earlier in the week my messages service stopped working. Kept shutting down. (Soft) reset everything but still the problem persisted. Had to do a factory reset of the phone and now its back to generic annoying settings and another of files lost.

Re: how to convert 142mm x 15mm DT Swiss 350 rear 6 bolt hub to boost standard!?
For completeness of information: So I split the front wheel with the DT Swiss boost hub (M1700 27.5).

Re: rear wheel dilemma (boost/axle stuff)
Watch this space ☺️ I will although it seems a cr@ppy idea. :lol: :lol: We all love in a land of confusion. To be honest, with the M1700 Boost Hub (yes, its 27.5) I couldn't be bothered trying to figure out spoke lengths as my Wheel builder book is too old to have needed to go into that. Plus, Alle...

Re: rear wheel dilemma (boost/axle stuff)
Another option I suppose is to get a bit of a mullet setup going on. Not sure how we'll the geometry of the Santa's Cruz Highball would take it though as its supposed to be a 29er!

Re: a forum without advertising revenue nor subscription fees!
Yes, good point and I guess it wouldnt be a bad thing as long as it didnt start looking like YT. An ad a minute or whatnot. Never really looked at a brand helping out without making it all look like you're in an edition of MBR (back in the day) with Specialized plastered everywhere. Very good point ...
