I saw someone posted on FB about cold feet with 5.10s and that made me wonder how HP is getting on with them...?

I don’t know yet because they are a Christmas present. I have already used my swimming related presents and would like something to look forward to.

My feet were too warm on a recent ride but how many rides do you ever cut short because your hands or feet are too warm? Exactly

Just reminded myself how lacking in skill and power I am round the monkey at Cannock. Is it too late to beg Santa for an ebike and a year of skills coaching?

Muddy too.

I’ve just been there too, Larkim. Muddy as...

Did bits of the Dog and Monkey, along with some natural slippy stuff - two wheel slides involved at times. It’s a laugh a minute on an ebike though, I must say...

I did a blast around the local woods here and it was very muddy too.

Wonder if our paths unwittingly crossed, Cath. Enjoyed it but always get off to a bad start as we park at stile cop and getting down to access the monkey via one of the (supposedly) easier downhill tracks gives me a rude awakening. Son, on the other hand, just flies down and generously spends time waiting for us!

It was crazy busy there today, so we may well have crossed paths but would never know it! The bottom of the Monkey parking was packed!

Gobi - is Hicks Lodge worth a trip with the kids? (When I'm allowed back to the Midlands anyway)

About This Thread

Maintained by cathrobinson
Since the last appearance of Kaph, some time ago... there are now three wheel sizes, and now new plus (+) tyres for the even more adventurous!

26 / 27.5 (650b) / 29 / 27.5+ (650b+) / 29+ / fat
whatever you ride, enjoy it :)

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
