Re: Making biking safer

Unless it's like the collision warning on our Volvo!

Keep turning the bloody thing off as it gives so many false warnings, especially parked cars on a road with a bend in it.

Re: What are you doing today ??

I'm shattered. I did an easy 20-mile road ride on my MTB this morning and I'm really feeling it right now.
Ah well, one bad day once in a while is a small price to pay for all the good ones.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

No time to clean it.... been out riding it.... Ha ha.... Was a nice day out yesterday, lots of flooded roads, closed roads and detours. Glad I have my route checker on, could see where I had been... it was a bit of a follow the road and see where it goes time of day :D https://scontent-lhr8-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/394524831_10161287368896948_386973040546531609_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=5f2048&_nc_ohc=EneIV_AM9BkAX9idUwi&_nc_oc=AQmMfPd7PP6yBFmsmlepDg70lrAD58yvbD0-BONjDr6YOz-nHO1H-xbMYVRQXNK_J11hvVTZGWHR8ZZg5umWpT4V&_nc_ht=scontent-lhr8-1.xx&oh=00_AfCPEhnkkYUDwKadGmelTzbvX2shH7OS-_C-bkStoZKQmA&oe=653C07DD ...

Does it need to be you that removes the bits?

We've been around Loch Ness and visited Ben Nevis. We did a walk along one of the Ben Nevis trails. Those of you who like your off road cycling would love it there. My mate was speaking to some YouTube bloke called Tom Cardy and his girlfriend. We're currently on the A82 Skyfall road heading ...

... £60 it was hard to refuse. Tested on a phone app db meter and there is no real increase, but will be interesting to see how loud they are on the road. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231011/4b6521e90705a55624693f8cee9bd441.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231011/93ad5c48eeb5fa5127d75b9f1f8523bb.jpg ...

Re: The new improved fitness thread

Did a fast road/dirt MTB ride today.....except I'm not that fast anymore.
I'm wrecked, knackered, etc.
I need a new hobby....lik low-impact lepidoptery, philately, or something like that.
