I’m crap at cycling now, I walked away when my friends started this “downhill” business. I didn’t understand it, have the skill to execute it or desire to die, and they were buying bikes that were heavier than a metro, whilst I was still cutting down purple bars and drilling holes in chainrings to save weight.
I love Mint though; takes me right back to carefree, happy days of trackstanding, crappy tabletops and SPD induced mega bunny-hops, long summers and seeing how fast you could go down a massive hill(52mph for me 😀 )- all the memories why I recently went to such silly lengths recently to buy the bike I wanted back in 1996.
Shame I hardly ride it 😳
Edit: Just realised RTC used the phrase “carefree happy days”!
