Pic of the Day

[Slymobi]

Cracking ride out today, very hard on the multiple uphills in this heat but totally worth it for the fun sections. Route was something like.... up the road to Crown Edge, over the top to Lantern Pike, down the hill to Hayfield, across over to New Mills, up the hills towards Kinder reservoir, up the insane hill to cross point between Edale and Hayfield then down the tracks to bring me back to Chunal.

Very warm but fun.

The 30mm riser bars definitely make a difference but also definitely missing the suspension post the dropper has its uses and saved me on 2 descents today but my arse is feeling it today

But early in the year, I came across a snake ... quite small tbh

I got a strong stare from a couple of sheep this morning in the moors...

That’s a big one! I can’t imagine the prep work or scramble to get that pic!

Something else than just bike parks. A real Alp trail at Livigno. Been at this trail many times and still loving it. You get 1100 m vertical up and down.

It wasn't always like in the bike movies, now at the campsite and the water and hail is coming down. And my camper van awning is flying somewhere

Bangor, Co Down, N Ireland around teatime today.

Local trails are very dry and even dusty in places, but I managed to find the last remaining mud.

A great day to be out and about

From Behind the Orange Curtain

A buddy from L.A. came out to ride my local trails yesterday.
He's always recording stuff with his fancy GoPro contraption. I had one, never used it, and gave it away. Sometimes I think I should get another.

Came past this today. The lightning strike boulderly single-track descent to Loch Muick. Had a nasty endo here my leg somehow ended up through the frame and jammed with handlebars. Big drop on my left on my own as usual

. No fool like an old fool. Pre electric days

We did the descent on the far side of the Loch..pre electric days too..a few years back following the route in Scotland : The Wild Trails vol.1.... I do remember nearly crapping myself a few times ..but what a cracking ride on a scorching day that was ..

That's the one descends from right to left from 1000 m . Driech day when I did it. Got to be done though.

 

[Slymobi]

Revisited my crash track for the 1st time since bit conscious about it but went well.

Friend at the start of the ride..

Danger zone..

Longest down section..

Higher Swineshaw reservoir ( looking low )..

Another friend at the end of ride ..

All in all a good day and came home unscathed

 

[Mcharza]

Good times at Mottolino, Livigno bike park.
I gathered the courage and dared to ride even a few drops. Although not the highest.

I'd give my left nut to be able to ride trails like this!

Up towards Dow Crag before descending down Walna Scar Road by coniston old man.
started of sunny and 27 degrees , raining at the bottom: hard climbing , even on the the e bike . Lovely views to make it worth while

 

[Mcharza]

Following the stream, such a nice scenery. But sometimes no mtb. @livigno

Getting an Ebike over five deer fences without dismantling is a good workout in itself.

The battery won't last as long as when you carry it, but it's generally easier and more fun if you try riding it. There's probably a youtube video somewhere which shows how ..

If you do insist on carrying it, I'd consider buying a lightweight eMTB like a Levo SL or Orbea Rise. These bikes are designed for people who prefer to carry their bikes rather than ride them and they come with tiny tiny little batteries and motors from electric razors because they're not really designed to be ridden.

If you have any complex's about how you look, Specialized make a carry bike just for that Market. The Kenevo SL ! It has a funkier looking suspension setup so owners can walk peacefully and confidently around the countryside carrying their bikes, knowing that people will be looking at their bike, not at them.

Yes they go out in the dark with all the folk that don't switch the motor on at all , have a rare old time I hear.

 

[Pascal Funk]

Oh no. It's for fun, this photo.
I need watts in turbo...I'm weak
Good save Bosch

May the force be with you. Never underestimate Kenovo SL owners
