EPPING RIDE TOMORROW

https://www.komoot.com/tour/443809778?ref=wtd

Joined some dots up too and from the station, clicked “mountain bike”

Some of it might be unridable?

It’s probably muddy af right now?

Bring your best bags and sandwiches

Underbiking overbiking, it’s all good, you can see the rough root so just ride what you thing you’ll like

If we get the angles right we’ll get some rough stuff esque shots without having to ride Audax distances

I will have stickers

Please check in if you’re coming so we know to wait or can just crack on

and you can dm for my number

Group of 5 already, mixed ability and inclusive, if you’re the shy sort and worried about “the people who go to these sorts of things”

Social distance please, take adequate prep and assess yourself, vulnerable people etc

Meeting at chingford station at 10am (hopefully)

Last time I rode Epping was with @BareNecessities and @Howard and I rode there and back, its a nice ride via Quiteway 2 if you want to extend your day on bike.

Receiving contrasting opinions here, @Thrasher is adamant it’s a shit ride to epping

Do you have a map/ gpx of the route you took?

Not trying to push my product, but if you fancy a tried and tested route, there's a bunch to be found here

I'm up for this, if you'll accept a forum n00b on a creaky 80s muddy fox?

Would be riding there from wood green, dunno if there's any other north londoners joining but happy to meet up en route if so

These look good, I will be taking one of these and replacing the link in the post later!

Hell yeah @jtfh more creaks the better!

Aw I'm busy tomorrow morning

rip,

there will be more of these i'm sure

my bike is falling apart / it will fail tomorrow so don't worry.

@Thrasher is adamant

lol I had two riders up there both times I guessed my way.

Sure q2 is lovely. But I'll be getting the overground.

Pissing it down, will be MOIST tomorrow

Personally getting the goretex hiking boots out and quick dry everything, still, no mudguards

I'm unashamedly envious, but chuckling at reading “the people who go to these sorts of things”

RIDE POSTPONED

It’s absolutely miserable down here??

Worse up there??

I’m on dark sky and it just says Somme???

We had one instant cancellation, another 1:30 am “what’s the start time again?”

I’ve let you know @jtfh

I don’t mind riding if the grounds muddy or the sky’s wet, but together it gets into “gotta get out on the bike….because ….ummmm….uhhhhh……UHHHHHH……”

Better this than a cold I guess

Looking forward to seeing some Epping photos when the summer comes back :-)

we're simply getting all the rain out of the way now so we can have a sunny rest of the month ...right?....that's how it works

The size large pompino frameset will be available in a couple of weeks, with the original fork, maybe some other parts too, just giving first dibs to friends and stuff, also working out bits I’d like to keep

I’d sell it complete, minus pedals to someone, with all spare wheels and forks if someone wanted to put £800~ in my hand for a gas pipe single speed in 2021. I’d be tempted, even if it meant saying goodbye to the mini motos

but I doubt most would find value in such a bike, conservatively you could probably make 30% on top of what I’m asking if you saw the full part list and wanted to strip it, but who can be arsed? It’s also exactly what everyone who tries to sell their mash says and we all know they’re wrong.

I actually wrote a really cracking for sale post which detailed it all

but I had nightmares of getting bullied having asked more than £400 for a single speed bike in the year of 2021 so mention it quietly here on the off chance

Me sowing, me reaping etcetc

I had nightmares of getting bullied

Just put @amey on ignore and everything will be fine

missing key sticker IMO

So we’ve had:

The fake faran - somewhere in Bristol
The fraudax cinelli - dead
The fake bmw - deceased
The Blue slug pomp - soon to be dead
The homer - alive, stronger than ever
The fake rivendell - fit, healthy

And now for season 7 “the saadx” (date tbd):

1 Attachment

Will also accept working titles of

“Dbad 2, 8speed boogaloo”
“Wanker crosscheck”
“Brexit Ronnie wagon”
“Fraudax reloaded”

All the gears? Or 1x?

Most of those bikes seem to be sporting doubles

double, sub compact, close range casette, less speeds, down tube shifting

At least in my minds eye!

All steel cross bike with gears, my blue slug pomp with a cassette basically

Discs? 😳

Sounds dreamy if you ask me. I'm also lusting over a good dt shifter bike.
