Thanks for the nudge, Stu. Need to get my game back on.

Have you been peeking, Reg? : )

Should there ever be a winter bivvy badge competition, there's my entry. Reg-approved no less.

Ah Reg....I'd just about forgotten about the Bishops Castle affair and the 2" ice on the Ridgeway...and you go about bringing it all up again ; )

Will be there in spirit whilst burning in hell/Qld. Miss the sub-zero shenanigans and partners in rime from over the years.

Woke up...grabbed a random CD and shoved it in the aging Discman...this morning is powered by Fishbone and "Give a Monkey A Brain..." Happy Tuesday folks...looks nice out there.

...and dropped me off some fresh Nanos and chainring bolts. Might have a working bike this weekend. : )

Jims got Sat. morning tuneage under control....new ClownC0re from yesterday....Cardiacs Special Garage Concert...and the sound of his solder sucker as he's building guitar pedals.

Folks in Brisvegas ride with zipties pointy end up on their helmet to keep the magpies from swooping. Seems to work as they go for me instead. Had a couple of pecks on the helmet since I've been back. Crazy look though the whole zip tie helmet thing.

...surprising me today. Sub 5 days from the US to Oz for UPS. Maybe things are improving from the 3-6 weeks they were a few months back. Anyways...postie dropped me this to go with the No9's. 100AUD cheaper than the local distributors are trying to flog 'em for. postie_160421.jpg Now I just gotta un...

It's branded as Sonic Mini 4K from Phrozen, Dave. I'll snap a photo in the daylight of one of the demo pieces.

If Mike doesn't snag it, I'm keen. Need to replace the aging Viscacha.

Working too much...decided it was time for a treat... Ooooooooooooooooooooooh those are just lovely. Ride report ASAP please. Yeah...they're well plush. Going from 680 to 760 makes a big difference for me. Yet to dodge sticks with 'em where you have to adjust for being a bit wider, but a quick spin...

My brother has 3 of those things....the SKGo is a monster. But the one that's really impressive is the resin printer. It makes nice Joystick mounts that if properly cured, are pretty decent. Under 300 quid for a semi-decent resin printer.

Comfy riding is fun riding.

Likewise to ya Mike....and to all the 'Boners....have a fun silly season.

Hexus II goes with me on every ride. Chain breaker is functional and has saved me on trail more than once. Like it that it'll do my lockon grips with tiny hex or my Eggbeaters with a large hex requirement and a good mix in between.

Clowncore - Van. How did I miss this album? Going from hard electronica to grindcore to fluffy Kenny G style jazz in the same song...that's a thumbs up from here.

Greetz

Not played one...very happy with normal fretting on my Schecter. Get a Parker and don't look back. I'd trade my Omen6 'and' Les Paul in a flash for a nice Parker Fly from the 90's. Currently settling for the poor mans version - 2004 Hornet.

When my MK7 Joystick was new, I got 5 nights worth of approx. 6 hours each night on the mode 3 low setting.
The current model seems to do the same but double the output (200L vs 100L).

Gosh, how I love that Album; Kyuss, Welcome To Sky Valley... Sky Valley and Blues for the Red Sun...all time classics. Great choice there. Bit o' old skool hardcore this morning with a new twist....here's SOD in quarantine - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDtZLkv5q-Y Habla Español o Muere! Greetz S.

Fair cop Reg. I just remember when I started sleeping in hedgerows...I didn't know BBB existed, but it was good to get out and gain the confidence. It was a couple of years before I started visiting mid Wales and meeting other like-minded folks.

Not having riding buddies is what is stopping me doing a proper trip more often... Nahhh...that's not it ; ) Get out solo...even if overnight. You're missing a trick here. Solo = go at your own pace...so when you get to the top of that climb for a killer view...or you find that sweet bivvy spot, yo...

Burway after the cattle grid when damp and the Port Way grid to Burway junction when windy is type2 at best.

Brown Clee access road / Clee Cycles Brown Clee climb challenge is a good 'un as is Boulden to radio masts to the south of Brown Clee.

Yeah...the bike isn't doing as much swimming as it used to...that may help : )

...and delivered a long sought after set of 'beater 11's. 2 years, 20 quid a month less on beer...goal achieved. : )
After going through sets of 2's 'n 3's every year, will be interesting to see how the Ti wings fair by comparison.

Great title, pics and post, Reg.
