    Sodium silicate sorted my dusty garage floor. Couple of months after doing it, the dust was a bit annoying. Treated it with the above & it sorted it right out. Itā€™s also referred to as water glass.

    Yeah waiting for a collar to fit the 30.9 150 dropper I had siting in a box unused. Man riding without one feels super sketchy.

    Cable is a security device.

    Impressed how smooth & reponsive the suspension is & itā€™s not even set up correctly & the brakes are comfortable with 1 finger considering they wonā€™t even have bedded in yet. Impressive for budget deore stuff, planning on upgrading components when they wear out.

    Was swithering on the carbon frame option but spunked a grand on roller rockers for the Guzzi instead.

    Skyeā€™s rammed again , I think thereā€™s only 1 campsite @ Edinbane open so lotā€™s of wild camping going on. Guessing thereā€™s a fair amount of u buggers here judging by the amount of Mtbā€™s strapped to all sorts of motors. (Mainly german estate cars tho)

    I was fairly certain I saw 2 B52ā€™s last week over Skye & heading due north. It was high hazy cloud & I was late in getting the binoā€™s on them , but whatever they were was unusual. They were high up & well ahead of me but the con trails were weird as in 8 engines weird , Black wide & unusual tail.

    Was gonna post on here for some plane twitchers opinions on how likely it would of been.

    I canā€™t look past Shimano AM 41ā€™s even though getting them now is difficult, if you wait long enough they pop up on ebay every now & again. I bought some 5 10 impact vxiā€™s & thought meh! Buggers for hot spots after an hour + & amazing for collecting wee stones in them while riding along.

    I suffered a lower back spasm 20 years ago & GP said its a muscle spasm & it will get better, blah blah blah. Cue mild back pain & odd recuring spasm for 15 yr + until at my current work place, after I flared it up pretty badly.

    OH sent me to a osteopath wifey in Staffin on Skye & after a strip down & instructed to bend over she instantly said your pelvis (SI Joint) is ā€˜squintā€™ on the table & the old shoulder & knee levering & loud crack. After a day or 2 it was like having a new back , not experieced nagging lower back pain freedom for so many years it was amazing.

    I have an SI joint dysfunction & occasionaly I twist it out with heavy lifting typicaly while standing on 1 leg or uneven footing & if I dont get it cracked it lasts weeks & when cracked , 1- 2 days & itā€™s gone.

    Lotā€™s of people slag off Osteopaths as quackery , my experience tells me diferent. I suffered for years after listening to various GPā€™s.

    @dannybgoode Both I suppose , Deepdish are ace but dubfire remixes more often than not are superb & a wee bit different.

    Was Lucky enough to see Daft Punk in 2007 & it was epic! Other highlights were Timo Mas playing a 5 hr set in a small club & a bangin sound system & still very much in the honeymoon period šŸ˜€

    Morillo doing a more techno type 6hr set in Glasgowā€™s arches in 2002 I think. Faithless forever Faithless tour in the SSC , wicked. Lotā€™s of others but these stand out.

    Still got my 2015 27.5 2 model & I still love it. Itā€™s been hammered down the Fort Bill Red (now black) run a fair few times, I did put the forks to 120mm put a 180 disc up front & add a dropper to help matters though.

    It is pretty sketchy on steep descents compared to my trail bike , but it can do them with a bit of focus. Iā€™ve put around 13k on it & the frame is showing sighns of stress cracking, no doubt down to it getting a bit abused in places it probably wasnt intended for.

    I want another but Iā€™m holding out for a good deal (like I got with my current one). The buggers fair shot up in price after 2017 & I want the previous to 27.2mm model, cause a dropper is essential to me these days.

    Iā€™s a bit triggers broom with only the frame original now, it will be a sad day when its retired.

    Remember to look in your mirrors & let people past, when you inevitibly are on single tracks. Nothing boils our piss quite like a campervan bimbling along oblivious to the fact that they are holding eveyone else up.

    Have to admit a fair amount of locals are similarly oblivious.
