    Project Car / Motorbike thread. Let's see 'em.

    I've mentioned it before, but the best system I've used so far was in a little Hyundai Kona. So when I received the Toyota I was expecting that level of functionality, it's a Toyota after all. Nope. The Hilux lane guidance is woeful. The AEB is also panics at it's own shadow, and there is just...

    So, no good at track stands then? ;) Many of my riding mates are very jealous of how long I can remain stationary.

    Black Dogs and mental shit in general

    This is pretty small change in terms of the rest of what the rest of you are dealing with, but it's churning around inside my head, it needs to come out somewhere. I have a constant battle going on for my services. From everyone. So many people want so many things from me. Driving home from...

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    They are, well spotted! Jean-Claude has been amazing both times I've dealt with him so far. When I ordered new bearings last year, he remembered me ordering the correct end cap the year before. Even if they can just send me a shell. Probably the cheapest, easiest way.

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    Was just looking. They went on my Procaliber (the orange one) in September 2020. Puts them roughly around 10,000km. I was running Mavic wheels on the orange bike as well, but couldn't get a Mavic 12sp freewheel when I got the Supercaliber. While NBD is always welcome, I like the way Evie...

    Dunno bout that. I had a Coomie KOM that was faster than the pair of them.

    Can confirm the modern 29er geometry is much much nicer. I was worried when I bought my first 29 because the last MTB I'd ridden before that was 26. No concern was warranted. Oh, when new bike day does come, save some coin and don't bother with a dropper post ;)

    What might have been......

    Got a few moments. Leanne at Macca's when we were 15ish. Super sweet on each other but neither of us actually did anything about it. Can't remember her surname now to even start looking her up. 100% the basis of my mindset of giving everything a go so there are no "what if" regrets later in...

    Are they working on the signage? I managed to get "lost" trying to follow a trail every time I've been there.

    Horses for courses. Don't know where you live, but around these parts Calthrop/three corner jack is rife, to the point of using slime in my road bikes tyres just to get to work. This time of year is the worst with the grape trucks dragging everything out of the blocks and on to the roads.

    Exactly, great way to finish off the day and exactly why I stay in Bright when all my work is either side of Myrtleford. It's just no better than anywhere else I've been. Unfortunately the last two trips in a many weeks have had no riding at all.

    Them and the tree harvesting has cut the park in half. Can't get from one side of the park to the other without going thru some kind of no go zone. Can't comment on the downhill stuff but it's no better than anywhere else I've ridden.
