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

Only that 3 mins gopro, is the whole race up somewhere? Looked like madness.

Yeah, I'm watching it now. It's on YouTube.

Bike Park Wales, round two. Didn't die, again! Did some nice drops! Cleared some tables on Popty Ping! Only crashed once!

(On the biggest drop in the middle of Root Maneuvers. Was a bit fucked by that point and it was very slippy)

See you tomorrow @t_w

Also, the new Remedy doesn't actually suck, which was a nice surprise. Still don't get on with Rockshox tho (although the Lyrik air spring is definitely an improvement on the Pike)

I fucking love Root Maneuvers, best trail in the park. See you tomorrow.

I crashed on that trail too. But still think it’s the best trail there

I bet it's spectacular in the summer. And less knackering than Terry's Belly. Win.

Hah yeah it was drenched when I did it. Still, had lols.

Rigid singlespeeding round Gower tomorrow. Wish me luck...

Rigid singlespeeding

That's Howard's favourite thing ever

Rigid

Because his Lefty has broken again?

Found it, pure nonsense.

You done alright today, Tom. I definitely wouldn't have done some of the climbs and descents you did on a rigid 26" single speed.

Hope you all enjoyed the Gower mud/slime.

Did he bring his own pump?

I can't wait to show you my pump upgrade

Loved it! I think we all did. Great to meet you all, wish I could cycle here more often.

Pretty good mud. It's no Epping slop

Not sure, but Tom and Kate did bring the fava beans.

mmmmmmmmm......

It's no Epping slop

You've not been when it's properly muddy

MTB and homicide. A winning combo every time

Crazy fucking race, yeah.

Yeah, I brought up the Hannibal Lecter thing and they were like "It's just a salty snack, dickhead."

I still have not-so-fond memories of 2" XC tyres turning into brown, 3" slicks

Cwmcarn rocks. Great day out.

No idea what weird event was on today, but we managed to avoid the horde of endurobros pretty much all day. Easily two or three hundred grand in bikes in the carpark

You could train to Edale, ride to Hayfield then easy ride back to new mills train.
Or train to Marple and loads of good loops round Marple/ strines/ Mellor area
Train to macc and pedal out from there?
Train to Delamere for easy stuff

Also within Manchester there’s clayton vale for easy trail loops

Does anyone have a any grey Rock Shox bottomless tokens knocking about?
