Thanks for the eyes all over mk. If it is local its bound to be spotted.
I never take photos of anything, wish i did now.

Just a quick bump, for people who are out and about today.

This has really messed with my head, trouble sleeping, waking up at the slightest noise. Rubbish.
Any book recommendations on mental focus, calmness etc.
Thanks

The embossed logo really finishes the peice.
Slick.
DM

Thanks guys.
Mine is neon green. Think of the brightest green ever, its that colour.
Just finished making the garage super secure.
A phrase about horse’s is springing to mind.
Trying to be positive, everbody is unharmed, i can always buy new bikes.

John Lewis cover up to 5k for cycles. All good.
But it has a limit of 1k per bike.
Excess is £500
I guess I have fallen in to the trap that these things only happen to someone else.
One slip up and this happens.
I am so careful of people never seeing my garage contents.

Thanks for the support fellas.
Still have my c456 to pedal about on,they left my girlfriends kona and myka. They going to come back?
Chaines in loughton, really helpful.
Mate had his commuter stolen from cmk train station a few months back.
He came up with the figure 150 bikes stolen from the station in the last 12 months. Shocking.

Near kingston.
You must have seen me about, i have had my head down working for the last few years.So not ventured to woburn much.
Cheers

I have a five, a riding chum has a zesty.
Both good, feel a bit different to start off with but you adapt.
Get what you like the look of.
Dm

Also looking for a burr grinder. Gaggia one any good?
DM

Tr250 looks the ticket, but way too much new.
Keeping a eye on pinkpink ads, a fair few deals about.
Thanks for all the input, may try to get a go on a wilson only just over £2k atm.
I am off to work, will check in later.
DM

ahem, Simon Bisley

I suspected a full DH bike would be over kill. The other downside is I can not make out that I am lost and had no intention of any DHing.
The german brands look amazing value.

Will google the Kona.
Cheers all

Gutted for you mate.
Will keep a eye out.
My thumb is healing well, I was just thinking today we need to get the night rides going again.
G

I swam every day for a few months. work up to wearing fins.
Indo boards are good. As is slack lining. Get a trampet.
Best of luck.

5.10 on a 16. Spot on as a play bike.
Dm

Rogate looks good.Cheers.
Anymore?

Should have said regular at woburn.
Also ridden at AH,SC.
Will look up Ribbesford.
Cheers.

Cheers. A quick lap then over to stile cop.

Eyes peeled.Gutted to here this.
We spoke last weekend.I also have a c456,lots of hair and a beard.
Hope they catch the scum.
Dm

Surface scuffs, a bit of tape helps. How robust is it in 5/10 years of hard riding? who knows. time will tell I guess.
If mine breaks it breaks, no worries as long as I walk away ok.
Anyone broken one yet?

I use duct tape on mine.Ghetto all the way.

Frame marks very easily, brambles etc.

3hrs around woburn, in brillant sunshine.A bit nippy but soon warmed up.
Hope to be playing in the snow sunday.

I wanted to like it. The RR in green looks so cool.

I echo the try before you buy. Rear suspension was very good for pedaling, never had a plush feel though.
Evans should have them to demo in large or at least the foxy r.

How does the Dune compare?

I posted a few thoughts on the Foxy R last week.Felt really long and low to me, did not inspire fun times.

I paid in full from msteel.Buggers. Custom five also,I was assured 6 six max.

Cannock is alright, not top five for sure, but why the bashing?
Dm

Thanks for the link stevede.
I went for the 16″. I want it to be really chuckable.
DM

Just ordered the zipfit box.
Cheers

Thanks for sharing, I like that. Where is it, not that Iam going to steal it. Just what forest?

I really wanted to like it, ride something different to the crowd.
But the Five is outstanding when descending. It brings out my loony side.
Like the Dixon, but lots of bearings and pricy.
Went for the Five.

Thanks all.
Ordering in the morning. Played around on my 456.
Going to go for the 16″
Cheers

Feeling your pain, I suffered for a year or two with alot of pain.
Get physio, this will hurt. But you should be pain free for a day or two afterwards.
Hit the weights big time. DB press, deadlifts, rows.Heavy and hard, power lifting type movements.
No supplements make that much differnce really, but knock yourself out.
Tried, mega dose vit c 5g day plus. Devilsclaw.Udoes oil. Glucosimine, chondtin, cisscus. May help out alittle.
Good luck.

Excuse spelling

Did try a heckler, felt higher than the five and not as nimble.
Cheers
Dm

I can not believe how much of a drama I am making out of 20mm here and there.Thanks for all the input so far. Keep it coming.
Dm

I have phoned Orange. They said a 16 or 17, no solid answer.
They assured me a 17 would be just as nimble.
Dm

Skywalker that is what i am thiking, seat in the middle of the rail and a 50mm stem and I have the dimensions of a 16″ again.
I am giving my self a headache over this.

I used to ride a BMX a bit as well and still like a smaller feeling bike.
Dm
Gotta hit the buy button by friday.
Maxle
V2
Neon Green
F+r woolly stuff

More info my C456 is a 16″, very similar TT length to the 17″ five.

Randomjeremy going nuts the 16″ felt perfect, hops, jumps, manuals, anything in the down direction all A1. Just riding along, getting to the fun stuff a little cramped.
Would wider bars make it feel better?
Sh#t still confused what to do.
Skywalker if the 17″ just as nimble? The wheelbase is a little longer.
Cheers all
Dm

About 5 10″ with a 30″ inside leg.
Cheers
