I don’t get to go mountain biking much these days but I took my best bike out to the Wyre forest today.

Heading down one of the highlight trails of the area I was reflecting that my 10-year-old bike still brings out the 10-year-old in me. Fab fun.

But then………. Bzzzzz bzzzz – rear tyre is rubbing on the frame. Eh?

Well, it took 10 years, but it’s finally succumbed to the poorly-welded chain stays that the first batch were cursed with. Oh well, glad I kept the free-issue replacement parts that have dwelt in my garage for all those years.

It’s definitely worth repairing, even if it’s considered “vintage” these days.

But, but… where are the photos?
Love those original Mega’s.
