Did anyone else think that simon1975's second bike looked like it was leaning on a person in dark trousers?…. or are you all seeing a tree like normal people? (page 1)
The first bike I ever bought with my own money – a 1998 stumpjumper. Loving the v-brake action, long stem and crap geometry – oh yeah! 32:16 up here in Northumberland 🙂
Yeah, that's at the hotel in Anchorage where we gathered before the start. The bashguard is not so much for the gnarl as for protecting my big boots from the chainring.
