Wheels up for extra GKnar

Some lush bikes here - a little light on the Gnar though ..
Some really nice bikes, I'm happy with the gnar level to be honest 🙂
A wild ride this morning
This is a good start from the coast

Here is me pulling a Gnarmac pose

Your gnarmac pose is identical to my "contemplating a shit" pose.
It's actually more like 'I contemplated that shit for too long, now I'm touching cloth'. 😀
Someones ram has been doing well!
So has anyone tried an offroad tour?

So has anyone tried an offroad tour?
I've done a couple of Sustrans/cycle path tours but nothing proper off road. I think the Sustrans cycle network is ideal for this type of bike - quiet lanes and gravel tracks, cycle paths etc.
Have seen on the Bear Bones forum that someone has planned a LEJOG gravel CX route and is doing it in October over 10 days so it will be interesting to see how it pans out.
Mine is soooo gnar, sometimes I have to shoulder it to stop it getting out of control.

Some pretty awesome photos here guys. Nice work.
Loving the bike tang and great to see it's colour coded with the environment and ridden correctly too.
All good, but my pics will remain on the "show us your" thread.. Don't want to confuse things now nor dilute.
A few pictures as well, including some from GW's video. I love riding CX bikes in total inappropriate locations, I remember when I rode my old one down The Beast, that was testing.

great pictures, I need to get my Croix De Fer away from tarmac touring more perhaps 🙂
......although, and maybe it's just me, but quite a few of the pics look like the riding would be a lot more fun on a HT MTB !!!
And what does one call one of the these brave souls who ride their Gnarpoons on the Gnarmac at Gnar level 9??
Gnaratroopers?
Gnarchers?
Gnarseholes?
Jist wonderin'?
Gnarseholes I reckon, purely because we're just Gnars'ing about on bikes.
Gnarcissist of course!

I'd been on an unmetalled road and got mud on my tyres - how much more gnar can it get?
[img] 
[/img]
Answer: none more Gnar.
(Except Mr epicyclo, who's clearly all over this like a boss)
[url= http://www.pinkbike.com/news/dirt-merchant-a-line-with-a-cross-bike-video-2015.html ]Probably shouldn't count, cos it's not me, but some gnar on a crosser[/url]
But there's a northerner at 00:36. Maybe someone off here? 🙂
Gnarcissist sock doping. Haters gonna hate.

You been taking fashion tips from Dan Treby, tang?

He knows what he's doing that lad!
He's walking carrying a bike and yet knows what he's doing? I think not.
That picture is the antithesis of Gnarmac, not a lot of riding off road there.
.
3 peaks, yeah no Gnarmac there! 😀
No Gnar as its pictured in the garden and I'm banned on medical reasons from any riding. Sprayed up by yours truly and running 35mm rubber.

Thanks for the updated pics peeps, love them, those socks are awesome. Any more pics from the lake district or moorland riding from the pennines at all? I just got back from a bikeless week in the Eden Valley with the family and walking along I could see the back of Blencathra one side and the pennines the other. Would love to know what I was missing out on!
