Re: Brakes; mechanical or hydraulic?
No, the Hopes are full hydro. They do two versions for SRAM/Shimano to cater for the different fluids.

Re: HT550 - 2024
I'm just looking at Alex M's tracking history, and can't see any obvious points in his speed vs time plot where he's had a sleep? Maybe an hour or so just after the 40hr mark?

Re: Today's Run
Made it all the way round the Round Sheffield Run route. 25km, a bit over 3h10m. There was a certain amount of walking, shuffling and stopping to inhale jelly beans. Approx. 10km more than I've ever done in one go before. Legs are now toast.

Re: Bivvy a Month 2024
Definite feelings of reluctance to leave the house, but once I was out into a warm, sunny evening, all was well. Soft pedalling through the woods alongside a burbling brook and admiring the spring hedgerows, I made good time to my chosen spot. A few midges out, but some Smidge and a lil' bat friend ...

Re: Wildlife
A good morning for me. Woke to Wrens, Blackbirds and a Nuthatch, then went to meet a friend for an alfresco brew and saw a Curlew, Lapwings, a Meadow Pit, and...
(drum roll)
...an Osprey! I think that's a first for me!

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
I'm sat in the woods, with a can of walnut whip imperial stout, a good pork pie, and a well pitched tarp (even if I do say so myself).
Midgies are out, but I have Smidge, and some little bat friends swooping about.

Re: Missing the point?
If an inexperienced punter gets to equate 'adventure' with an enterprise that carries no risk they might find they are not then properly prepared when they sign up for an adventure which actually is an adventure and end up getting into difficulties. Mmm, I was thinking more the super-experienced fo...

Re: Technical question
It points to them keeping the head tube the same length. They may or may not have adjusted the rest of the geometry to compensate. If a-c has gone up by 10mm, and stack height has done the same, that would suggest the BB has stayed the same height above the floor, and they've adjusted the rest of th...
