There you go, that gives you 6 to break before you get down to a working 114 ...

Yeah I also thought that... it’s breaking because the chain is too short perhaps?
With three broken chains you should be able to stitch up a proper length with another quick link?
You must have rode past my old house “ Camden court” in Brecon ! Some good views of pen y fan from there ?

I couldn’t find one anywhere bud, I’ll have another look cos they are pretty cheap and I would say stash a spare for long rides the way I’m going ?
I'm not 100% sure, but I think .. only from what I can find and no longer find .. that the PC1110 in 120 links was renamed the PC1130 ?

SRAM only show the PC1110 as available in 114 links now and everywhere which did stock it as 120 links now shows it as out of stock.

Remember if you fall off and don't video for some reason, go back and do it again with the cameras running !
Looking forward to watching "Mind the GAP" ...
Nope. Funnily enough the 1130 is the next teir up from the 1110 in SRAM's chain line up (the chain plate finish is different, otherwise they both perform exactly the same)
PC is the code for chain, the first two numbers dictate speed, next two it's grade
ie.
XX10, XX30, XX50, XX70...

last time I did the gap I had a significantly larger engine
Then this happened, which was a good example of a terrible piece of riding skill - and it sucked.
Looked to me like you were just a bit warm and wanted to cool off ?

New chain is so much better, twice I’ve had that KMC POS and never again....

ok I admit it, this video is pretty dull but it does include a descent down the trail pictured in the post above.. gopro took all the peril out of it though.

haha, its not a well populated area, very rare that I see anyone when out riding, it will usually be guys on crossers etc.
its a bit of a struggle on a mx type bike, the loose rocks send you everywhere.. before it got really bad I managed to get up it on my old KTM.. loved that bike!

my excuse for adding this video is that my Levo does at least appear in the video
I have no excuse for the lockdown lard !

cheers mate, its not a patch on what it used to be.. I had moved everything into storage to set up in a new location but it was actually 3 days before exchange that the buyer pulled out.
im still rebuilding the spray booth and finishing room, the assembly area (behind the double doors) is getting there but, when you worked in a shop for so many years its hard to replicate that evolution if youre not in there all the time..
the lard is an abrasive cleaner..

That must have been "frustrating" ...... !!!!! Putting it back equally so !! Are you staying there now then ?? You do have great riding on the door step and a peacock ? (That's with regards to the bird, not a personal statement).
As a youtube sensation, will this now be where you apply your "Trump L'Orange" before filming ?

A very rare moment of Zim in a video.. a short segment near the house called "Stairway to Heaven".
Normally I don't carry a camera and it's rare people let me go in front because I fall off too much and cause multiple pileups
My crash rate is dropping off so this time they let me go first !
EDIT : the OH was bored and edited some other bits in, so my bit now starts at about 23 seconds. 1st of 3 riders, camera on 3rd. Best played in 1080 or it looks crap.

so I decided to make a load of noise in the workshop instead.. sorry, this is just old bloke shuffles around workshop and not old bloke falls off mountain...

I’ve got workshop envy (your pro tools... drool). Most of my tools are entry level DIY - but fine for what I do. Working on a double bunk bed for my grandkids at the mo. At first your chessboard made me think like you’re making a new guitar body. Oh man... really cool CNC! ????

That’s some pretty decent pace you guys are doing there! Pretty close to trees too, very little room for error... ?As promised .. better late than never ....

Cheeky !
You do realise how rare this is ? Unless someone has a super high speed camera, it's normally impossible to capture more than one frame between my floor floppings - that's not a video - that's a photo... I practice a technique which normally involves more error than room ... What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger ! - I think they might have over simplified that statement ..
It must be irritating to find someone keeps dumping logs in the middle of the trail, it's probably those bloody horse riders you keep chasing.
