Old fashion temperatures , 80 s were what we called sweltering in Scotland , few and far between.

Happy Belated Festivus! With the hints given I was finally able to finish off my next season Park bike (is it me or has anyone else had their Kenevo SL lose a few motors from excessive pounding a few days in a bike park provides?). We were able ride it around the Badlands of Vancouver today, after all the snow cleared.

Knolly Warden 168mm rear with a Fox Factory 180mm, in mullet of course.

Parklands, site for 2032 Olympics mt. bikes.
It will be interesting to see if this bit is in the course, I studied carefully before I walked down : p
Photos don't do it justice, I got up it and went "oh nooooo, there's a whole pile a pain there for any mistake" - 2m very steep, rocky to 90 degree right.
Someone with more skills and lunacy would probably just launch !

 

[SparAu]

So why do I love e-bikes?
The ability to bounce off uphill switchbacks? Yeah
Turn long uphill slogs into no hands water breaks? Yeah

I'm on day 5 straight of 2 hours / 30 km downhill sessions. So for a 50 somethin y.o. who spent too much time in front of a desk the past few months I'll say cause I need the help
I got a better photo of the moss forest yesterday, it was 30, humid and raining, I think the moss was singing.

I definitely live in the wrong part of the world.

Little round today to loose some balast gained the last days.

Trail with trees of the years

Another clue is that it must be Irish ..surely no Scottish person would make that basic mistake ?

Ouch . No it's been pilfered from somewhere by an honest distillery worker . I got a pepsy max 1.5 ltr bottle a few years ago with 18 year old zzzzzzzz writen on it , acquired by someone setting up the cctv cameras in the place .

 

[SwampNut]

I've got a very special Irish arriving today, cask strength, mixed distillates from a copper pot still and single malt from the same distiller, aged in Mizunara oak. Even the purists should recognize that this should be fun, extraneous 'E' aside.

The color of the bottle above is just beautiful.

It's excessive HDR and saturation, image processing after the fact. Here's a subtle one.

And the original.

The color of the sky makes me think you're riding your bike on a quest in Mordor.

 

[SwampNut]

I vaguely understand that to be a fantasy video game. But yeah, AZ sunsets are always red, and you can tune the red however you want.
