Let's offroad / mountain bike / mtb / ride dirt

Probably set off from Leyton about 10am or so, not sure exactly what time in Chingford, i guess about half 10 or so? Will have a wee look later.

Guys! I fixed my knob!

@Brameses what time train are you getting? I'm in upper Holloway so I could meet you?

Soz guys I'm out, got work to do :(

@spotter glad your knob is fixed

Thanks, it's so nice to have a working knob one can just flick to turn on.

9.29 gets us to chingford for 9.14? maybe even a bit earlier as the change is a 12 minute walk but we will obvs ride between the points...?

It's basically impossible to do the change in my experience @dom and I have managed it once I think. Not enough time even if you ride. Also, time travel train?

@spotter @Brameses let me know what time is best for you guys to get to Chingford and i will meet you then.

@xkittyx @spotter sozza i meant 10.14 the change is just from walthamstow central to walthamstow queens so not sure what you mean by impossible?

Good ride today squad, even though we got made fun of by a small child

^ this is easy to visualise

@7Üp we missed your intimidating presence.

can you send me the "jump" vid somehow?

Jump vid? Share please!

sorry for vertical vids was an ig story

it exist in @spotter s care. unfortunately he missed the dramatic, and surprisingly pain free, "test jump"

slow down for true rad air appreciation

Much gnar. Very hang time.

So chuckable.

i did some sweet skids as well

Make that guy our leader

is slx the go to single ring set up? also, i think i want rigid forks. i want lateral and vertical stiffness. not sure i really like this vertical compliance nonsense.

...has this decision been influenced by the fork compression => front flip => leaf nap mishap?

1. leaf nap mishap is fun to say

2. maybe a little bit

3. just kinda like rigid bikes more and have found some sexc identiti thru axle rigid forks
