Where's @hippy, to tell everyone to HTFU?

I was about to post that!

he rides a dropper these days

I bet it's broken

That's his approach to maintenance, not things that make him go faster.

You don't miss a shift with AXS in the way that you can with mechanical if you don't push the lever home with sufficient authority - obviously not a biggie for Peaslake, but if you fluff a gear change in a race that can be a place, or places.

Damn, that could move me from mid-pack to slightly different mid-pack!

Although, I'm now more Lurpack...

new fast and furious movie sounds good

"Can't shift; don't want to"

I think that's the beauty of the XC races i have been to so far. People take it as serious as they want it to. Some are just doing party laps while others fight tooth and nail for every position.

You need to understand that trying to actually race, in a race, is not cool. Sorry - I don't make the rules.

Hate to break this to everyone, but riding bikes at all isn't very cool either.

This would now be my coolest year ever then

Err, actually, I ride bikes and I am cool. My mum said so.

She said I was good looking too, so she obviously never lies

We're skirting dangerously close to this level of joke, which may or may not be cool, I have no idea anymore

He's out there in the rain riding across multiple countries, just another day behind hard.

Dangerously close to your mum's skirt.

She borrowed it off your dad.

sounds easy compared to zwift tbh

Rad!!! Such nice looking frames

Didn't know my Dad was also involved with her.

If you're struggling it's probably time for some of these -
