What’s grim about it?

POSTED 27 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST

Errrrm, bit wet for me on 2nd half, uninspiring with limited downhill bits until the end and a flat slog around the top – was a couple of years ago, so maybe not doing it justice

Try searching Blue Waffle, that is grim

The blues over the other end of the resort (newly built last year) are also mega mega fun and jumpy . High up last year (the last lift station) was closed due to too much snow, so was disappointing to not be able to ride from the top, although it’s a bit bleak /’desolate

Most places will sell traditional food of pies, buns, chips or all 3 together, plus gravy – do you need a specific recommendation?

Venosc run, recover, cable car up, repeat until you scare yourself witless 8O

Did 3 1/2 weeks last year, mainly in the Alps with bikes on the back of the van using Aires and spent less than 200 euro’s on camping / pitch fees – stayed in some amazing places. My experience is that theft is rarely an issue for bikes. I use good quality chain & locks, with a rack on the outside and then use a long cable lock that goes inside the van and is secured to chassis.

Oh, and going to do the same thing again this year and a about 10 days time…….

Hair drier, heat grips on outside makes the glue a bit more pliable

Ahh, forgot the niche of niche contingent

Mine tells me where the nearest petrol station is if I go into the reserve tank……

You can become a “real” member when you start threads with
1. “tell me about (insert suitable banal topic)”
2. “which (tyres, wheels, shock, frame, inner tubes – delete as needed) are best for”,
3. when you complain about a trail centres, braking bumps, people wearing stuff that you wouldn’t, couldn’t or shouldn’t…

– after that consider yourself a member, oh and you need to drive an Audi.

Welcome :D :D

Poll you say, where is this item you speak of…..?

Another vote for GD from me

6. Jackanape – what does that actually mean and is it anything to do with 70’s radio and tv starts?

Just heard on the news……bit speechless

I love the Canyon sales model, think the bikes and spec are amazing, and the lack of ANY support in the UK put me off completely buying a second one. When I did get through on the phone to the UK chap, he was quite possible one of the most unhelpful people I have ever dealt with – good luck OP, and as per others would think an email trail, and phone call to Germany are the way to go. If still no response, a parcel return, letter explaining all the above would be a good follow up….

You know the word? Right? Haven’t you heard…..

Stop riding, sit inside more posting on STW and watching pron?

Sir Stinky Racer………

Anyone want to ride my stinky racer?

Andover? Tidworth Freeride

I had to actually double take……

DeeW, yes plenty although still gets a fair amount if use. Often trails get plenty of love at the start of the season and limited maintenance throughout as season is very short.

Decent Bongo for that sort of £££’s

My wife seems to think that a plastic carrier bag is an acceptable form of luggage for whatever we take useless or not!

You are welcome, saves weight as well….

Thought this was going to be a thread about ex game show hosts willies?

Can you take your gps on the plane?

And there’s me thinking this was an extension to the “Name this tool” thread…..

Both

3rd pic in, from the OP, man who’s photbombed the picure – is he scraping shite from his shoes?

Antur Stiniog – N Wales – awesome tracks and excellent uplift

Clicky Linky[/url]

Bike Park Wales -if you can book an uplift as it’s mega mega mega busy

Also done FOD (once) it was OK, but won’t be rushing back. Cwmcarn I’ve ridden a lot, which leaves some of the N Wales and more local stuff….some push up locations in the South but nothing with an uplift :(

Ooops double post…

Special massage? Ah, maybe not with the Kids 8O

Sentosa was good, shopping malls were what mine wanted, avoid the reptile centre on/near Sentosa, it was grim when we went a few years back

Is it a proper DH track or just a trail that points downhill?

POSTED 45 MINUTES AGO #

Seems like the latter rather than the former having ridden it, thought I’d was on an alternative Red Trail….

Depends on budget, but £1500 – £2k should secure something reasonable, try Canyon / YT / other online retailers – I’m 6ft and my large Scott Voltage took a bit of getting used to as it felt tiny. Having ridden it for a couple of tears, with my ar*e hanging off the back it now feels the right size…..

Ok, that’s Sunday sorted! Thought the red was fun earlier in the week, so much so I went back and did it again! 1st time there, and really impressed with set up etc

My mrs prefers it if I rub her clematis, leaving just foliage that needs trimming – I’d never rough handle a clematis

If she has the “decorators” in already, can’t they help?

I’ve got an RP23 on mine, which came from another bike – matched with a bigger fork (36 Van R’s) gives a bit more of a “solid” feel – I fancy trying a coil but it’s not the bike I’d take for uplifts or big days out so can’t really justify it
