that’s just the news i was wishing for! Going up there on friday

ive got some, had for a few years, never had any probs.

but, after a go on an other bike i thought mine had a lot of sag and could do with a servise. but on stripping them down they was fine inside, so just a oil change.

but i did find out the spring that comes with them is for a 63 to 70kg rider. i’m 85kg so have just got a new extra firm spring (80kg+) not fitted yet but will see how i go

also i never used the u-turn. but this winter i had a play with them and found it really makes the big climbs better when you turn them down

got an other this morning 😳

Ben10 – email me pics and that please. what size is it?

email is user name @gmail.com

well i was at work all day 😥

But went for a night ride 😆

good good, thanks

to be fair the ride back over cut gate was much better, after we (more so me) walked our bikes to the top. Could ride it all really, the ice was a little tricky tho 😳

thanks for turning out guys!

was hard work in the snow, but i had fun 😆

just a few quick pics

looks like it’s going to be a cold one, so as said, wrap up warm! but also looks like the sun will be out too 8)

the more the better by me! I hope the ground will be nice and hard anyway.
piston, that code phrase will not do, you’ll have to show me the rose….. (that’s if your on about the film i think u are?)

i’ll be the one on a bike 😉

got a blue/white beone hardtail, prob be in my ghay red hairdressers car 8)

my bro has one, he loves it! nice and light, rides well. but the tyres that come on it dont have much grip in mud 😆

Right then think i mixed my car parks up!

But because this one has no barrier, near to pub/cafe and toilets 😳

meet here at 10.00am, Langsett Barn car park –

http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=421020&Y=400460&A=Y&Z=120

piston- yer thats the type of route i was thinking of, if you know the area and don’t mind leading that world be great!

Steve- i was thinking of the carpark near the roundabout, but where ever is the best for everyone? I just picked it at random really!

Anybody know what meeting place would be best?

how about 10.00? At langsett barn carpark? It’s my only lie in of the week! Steve- i’m not all that great at hills aswell, will always ride 2 the slowest rider, or wait 2 catch up anyway! piston- are you up for friday? Would be good 2 have someone who knows where they are going.

i’m free all day so up for whatever suits

anyone free on fridays? i have fridays off work and normally just ride on my own. so if anyone every want a ride on a friday i’m up for it.

i’m in Rothwell but dont mind poping over to the other side of Leeds

thats gona hurt!

is this to hurt people on bikes or to get you to fall off then they nick your bike?

Pook, i’m coming anyway 😀

if a 1st timer can come, and i can get a pass 😉

i’m on it like a tramp on chips!

i always think of a boot as a “get me home” fix, so i’d say bin.

but thats just what i’d do, maybe cry a little at having to buy a new tyre 😥

i’d say MTFU,

but i live just down the road from you, in Rothwell and work in wetherby and would never ride to work anyway! to far for me before work!

just seen the on-one for £20, will give a 70mm a try

right then, looking like i’ll get on ebay and get a few cheap stems

anybody? i was thinking an Easton Haven 70mm is this short enough of a short stem?

yer no need for long travel, there is a short bike track (250m) with a few log drops, table tops, bearm etc if you want to add a little bit of fun

well from thorpe park you can be in temple newsam in 5mins.

this little loop would be ok, Avenew wood has some cheeky trails, both sides of the path

link wont work, but its not hard to find stuff, cant get lost as well

Garforth is more east leeds 😉

i’m from Rothwell and offten ride around garforth, lots of stuff in Temple Newsam to keep you busy for after work

this is a nice loop i do,

(if it works)

not sure if setting off from helmsley, but Dalby in only 20mins away.

if you ride over the moors this time of year it will be boggy and hard work.

ive got one, 7bvhhxiedrjpnm

thanks Tess, forks striped and all work fine now 😛

are people free most fridays? i’m off every fri and would be up for a regular ride, even if its once a month or so!

well i did get there, but at 12.30 🙁

i thought i might as well have a ride and could bump into you.

well ride was cut short after an hour, thought i’d use the u-turn on my forks (i never do) so wound in down. when i got to the top of the hill i wound it back up, but because i dont use it the u-turn bit had seased, so i ended up screwing the top of my fork off 🙄

well i did get it back in but only had about 80mm travel and not knowing if it would pop off again the ride back down was not as good as it could be!

but still had a fun hour.

i’m free most fridays so let me know if you meet up again and i will try and get down on time.

if i’m back in time i’ll be there, look out for the mincer in the cheap convertable 😳

that takes some balls and skill.

good work guys

i’m only 30mins or so away….

would it be ok for me to pop over to tag-a-long? (the cat is at the vets in the morn, but if i’m back in time)

do u mean the bridge next to salts mill? where can i park round there?
how long ish will ride take?

an other good little vid 😮

i need to get some more skill from somewhere……..

well if i had £600 for a new bike it’ll go on 2011 specialized rockhopper (if you shop around :wink:)

i must be as bored as you, just watched it all the way though. good little vid that 😆
