20 minutes of mud.

Edit 50% of a charge used in the mud.

Oh Kentucky.

It was awesome riding down here with the mud tacking up just enough to remind me of morning motocross practice when everything is watered and tilled. Coming up was blood, sweat, tears... and thrown chain.

Not sure how, but my gopro app basically created this little frantic video from my morning ride clips. I was trying to figure out how to highlight various scenes. Lol. It reminds me the baby shark song my grandkids go nutz over.

Rating my IXS Carve Knee and Elbow guards for comfort so far. More and more comfortable everytime i wear them. Never bothered with guards before on the MTB, but figured it was time to get jiggy with it. Sick of barking myself and my knee's and elbows have been coping a bit a hiding of late. Stupid probably as i would not ride my motor bikes without it.

P.S. THE MUD WAS ADDED AFTER THESE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN!

Yesterday afternoons ride. Leroy pinched a sharp edged rock and split the edge of the tyre. Out with the tubeliss valve and in with a tube, we were away again. Just as a matter of interest, the large C02 bottle whacked in about 14psi.

Curious about the archer and what you think. I almost pulled the trigger on one when I was struggling with the 12 speed tuning blues. How hard is it to get at the battery?

You will love it. I have one identical to yours. It is the best bike I’ve owned. Haven’t found anything it won’t handle. Have fun!

The Archer Components wireless shifting is awesome. It shift soooo much better now. Its super simple to set up, you can adjust each gear individually when indexing the gears. plus you can make minor micro adjustments on the fly direct from the remote whilst riding.
Now that its set up sweet its amazing and worth every penny.

It shifts faster that my previous shimano shifter as well. Plus will work on any derailer.

I'd highly recommend it. As for the batteries, you can get them out with a flat screw driver or a small allen key. The thing is they last for months and months riding several times a week. So every few weeks I check the app to see what my battery level is. Even if they run out it has a 'Get you home mode' so u can do limited shifts. I think you would have to be pretty unlucky to get caught out thought. Once they start getting low pull the batteries and charge them up if your concerned. Then you have another 3 months or so of wireless shifting.

I thought I'll attach a video here is my last ride here locally in Cape St Francis, South Africa. Just to show you guys what a 63 year old does with his Trance-e. Also why I ride a Giant. It's tough and reliable and awesome ?
