Hi from Bolton!

[Sanjeeves]

Hi all, having recently snagged a Trek Rail this forum has been a godsend to help me make sure my new steed stays in one piece. It’s been a hell of an upgrade from the hardtail I’ve been riding for the last year and a bit!

I’ve been out riding around the Bolton area and up Rivington but is getting a bit sketchy riding some of the rougher stuff out on my own so I’m looking for a few partners to go out riding with. I’m not averse to riding further afield either.

looking forward to meeting some of you! ?

I'm in Chorley and just did 26 Miles at Rivi, Belmont and Darwen Hill this afternoon.

We'll have to get @Kilowatt out too.

Welcome!

Thanks!
Yup the 9 is something special in the flesh!

Hi @Tonybro, thanks for the warm welcome. I did the run towards Healey Nab on Friday…..didn’t quite make it to the Nab tho as it was a bit warm so I bailed and went for a pint at the brewery instead ?

Nice bikes. I'm looking to get a Rail 9 Gx as soon as funds allow. Rivington is my main riding area as well.

its a stonking bike, you won’t be disappointed. Only negative I have to say is the stock saddle though. Brings a tear to the eye on anything longer than a quick hour blast ?

I'd be swapping a few things from my current bike.
Brakes
Bars
Grips
