Having been for a month, Apologies. Combination of work, skiing injury and illness keeping me off the bike.
But chomping at the bit again now.
Anybody riding tonight?
I'm hoping to be there. We had a disrupted night so not yet sure I have a pass.
I am off to Madrid for work in a few hours, striking Spaniards allowing.
Will definately be there next week, it's been too long...
Did you find your crown race?
Yeah, cable tied together with a completely different headset...
Have ridden it a few times, forgot how good disc brakes and suspension can be!

Yep i will be there
looks nice, what are those forks though!
I feel like I'm in that Volvo advert, you know the one where they land back from space and see that new Volvo and wonder how long they have been away
Only been away a month, but the last time I rode Lordswood, you were on a totally rigid bike with canti brakes.
What happened? Too mant face planted river crossings.
May have to dust of the Five with 160mm Lyriks to keep up!
Yep i will be there
shim arrived then?
i'll be there
shim arrived then?
yeah all done ridden it round the garden and nothing fell off
I have to admit I'm hoping I will crash less on this. Higher front end & more brake modulation. Forks are Suntour, and are actually surprisingly good. Most importantly they cost under 100 pounds, which is lucky as the frame cleaned me out. Will replace them when I can afford something better but they are as good ad the Recon I had on my last full sus. You need something to take the mick out of anyway...
I've heard good things about those, especially for the price! No mick taking here.
