Jesus, Rod Stewart needs to stop shoving blow up his nose.

Looks horrible. Never been a fan of Fox Kashima it just looks so tacky.

Superb video. Cheers for putting this up.

Intend Edge fork? Mine are set up with 140mm travel and are under 2kg with Ti axle.

A similar thing happened to me a few years back. I ordered 2 pair’s of new suit shoes from a premium shoe shop in London. After being messed about for 3 weeks I cancelled the order and got my refund. But 2 weeks later the shoes showed up on my doorstep, so I contacted the shop and told them that they could have them back if they organised a courier. They sent 2 emails and then went quite, so I kept them.

@dlr yeah the ant hills are impressive. I build and maintain most of the DH/jump trails in Cock/Duke’s Wood. It’s pretty vast and a lot of trails are very well hidden but I’ll gladly give you a tour sometime.

I was born and raised in rural West Yorkshire, which is a beautiful part of the country to grow up in. Then in my 20’s I decided on doing a very long (10 years) tour of the world. When I eventually came back to the UK I decided to buy a house in Hexham, Northumberland as it’s an absolute stunning county with so much wilderness to get lost in.

8-bitDO also do a controller now, which gets good reviews.

I use an 8-bitDO adapter and use my xbox controller. The 8-bitDO adapter works with pretty much any controller. Here’s a few links.

I’d honestly stay away from Sram SX as it’s their budget drivetrain. The Vitus 29 VRS is a cracking bike for the money and comes equipped with great Shimano gearing.

Yeah I do the same but only when dropping the baby

Fox may want too have a quick look on eBay and see how many companies are copying their patented Kashima coating.

I used to own Vaults but got sick of a £100 pedal needing so much servicing. Now I ride Chromag Scarab and I don’t have to service them every couple of ride’s

I bought a Calibre Astronut for £550 that I use solely for pumptrack sessions. It’s a superb bike for the money.

If Dominic Cummings can do whatever he wants, then so can I.

@MrTall cheers mate. I’ll PM you.

I have a Commencal Meta AM hardtail frame on pre order. It’s due in at the end of the month. Might be worth having a look at them. There about £400.

UPDATE

I bought some “Get Off” as suggested and it seems to have worked. I also painted the top of my fence with anti vandal paint so at least I can find out where the little buggers come from.

Best off looking at the German sites like Starbike, Bikester and R2-bike. I’ve just bought some Manitou Mezzer fork from Starbike and they were £100 cheaper than CRC and with plenty of stock.

Superb pedals, way better than the crap DMR Vault’s they replaced.

Only ever had one dropper, a 9point8 Fall Line that cost a fair bit (£370) 4 years ago when I bought it. Since then I have used it on 3 bikes and re-charged it with air once.

There are tons of trails in Thrunton Wood. That’s the closest to Alnwick, other than that you have Kielder and chopwell

I’ve got lot’s of tattoo’s although all mine are big pieces. Smaller high detail tattoo’s will look rubbish in 10+ years time, especially if they have words in it. Also fine line and dot work will fade a lot quicker than bold lines. I have a half sleeve in fine line and dot work and don’t expect it to last past 15 years.

This morning in Waitrose. I still get paid in cash.

Thinking they got rid of them. I used to have a pair but found them to be too lethal with the steep muddy terrain I like riding

Rightmove will be your best bet. Also you might want to check out your local Facebook market place.

It’s time to get yourself to a pumptrack.

@cb unfortunately the AKG don’t have noise cancelling.

I used to work at an Evans store and saw some pretty horrific practices going on by the mechanics. One time a mechanic scratched a carbon road fork and decided to colour it in with a felt tip. The customer noticed straight away and ended up getting a new bike as compensation. Both mechanics in the store had zero cytech qualifications.

I’ve got a set of AKG Y50BT and there superb. I use them for gaming as well as travelling.

My cousin is a police dog handler up in Glasgow. He has 2 lovely working dogs (Alsation and a Cocker) that live with his family. Their amazing dogs to be around as their so well trained.

Working for Evans Cycles. Getting paid minimum wage with no commission to hard sell bike’s is a piss take. Went back to selling BMW’s.

I swapped my old DMR 898 jump bike for a jet ski while living in NZ. Drowned the jet ski after a week

I’m running an Industry Nine Backcountry 360 setup. Very good wheels but very expensive

I’ve got an Addon T3. Won lots of award’s year’s ago.

Maybe do what Remi does?

Landmines should do the job

God that’s ugly

@ravingdave just out of interest what paint job is on the car in question? My mate has the metallic gold version and it’s one of the best looking paint jobs I’ve ever seen.
