Another photo of my bike, just to get us back on track

Load of rubbish ^^^

 

[TimC7]

I think their for the bin . Everyone has a different opinion as to what they are. Juniper was mentioned today.

PictureThis identifies them as Burnet or Scotch Rose hips - it's a great free app for identifying vegetation, either on the fly by taking a photo or selecting from saved pictures.

Yes that could be them I picked them late September and froze them . Bushes had bright red ones as well i only pickedthe darker ones. If I cut them they would be full of seeds.

Haha probably half Jocks and half English in the picture . Most likely a jock idea right enough. Hope it keeps us going till the Glencoe weekend meet at Hogmanay hoots man.

Great photo but something doesn’t add up! How did you get your bike to a location like that in the Lake District without a single splash of mud or sprinkling of dust? Even the tyres look brand new!

And the O rings on the suspension are too low!
AI photoshop?

Well I was trying to work out which one is you and thought you must be the guy with plastic bags over his feet in case your boots get dirty.

As no one is wearing plastic bags I have concluded you’re the guy with no boots on and a knife stuck in your chest ?

I noticed that too but didn’t want to completely rip the photo apart

 

[steve_sordy]

Clean bike before my ride simple, enjoy the forum instead of being a house cat and finger pusher who complains about folk I thought this was a friendly forum

It is a friendly forum, don't take the comments at all seriously. It's all fun.

I took the pic. Leave the fancy dress for the young team.

That mud looks fake!

You see a lot of EMTBers starting to use the new "MuddyFrame" and "MudWrap" products on their bikes nowadays.

Some of the more expensive versions even have "Real dried mud" incorporated into the wrap to give a 3d effect and "A texture which even feels like you took your bike outside"

My first thought was; Wow , that’s an almost perfect picture. My second thought was; That must be a green-screen photo.

My prescription glasses must need updating cause I never noticed the suspension “O” ring. Good find .

I don’t think it’s AI Or photoshop either. The lighting equipment must be perfectly placed.

I will have a Haggis and a Dram for you when we eventually meet . That will be on the first Sunday that lands mid week. But stranger things have happened.

I’m sorry to hear about your circumstances but I think gifts are reserved for those that are truly sincere.
I’m not taking sides though. Btw, I’ve never received a gift either.

Finally got some riding after covid symtons. I'm excited to see what the mood will be like tomorrow.

Hmmm, photoshop or AI made? When zooming in on spokes, speed cassette, tire profile or brake discs it lacks details.

After analyzing the photo several times, I noticed that the air valves are not exactly centred to the XX on the Maxxis logo. I just about fell off my Throne.

Back on the bike after 6 weeks of recovery (peddle strike foot injury). Rode some trails looking for winter storm damage and catalogued for some later attention.








Several tree branches blocking some trails …but what a great morning

 

[Stihldog]

If you lineup my seat to the background in three of my photos, you’ll see a jump, a landing and a berm. The bridge kept my feet dry.

You really position the valves in the middle of the XXs! Now that you mentioned it……… …….no, I don‘t think I will rotate the fuckn tight fitting new tire on the rear wheel of mine.

It is really easy to align....though I tend to scrub away the yellow Maxxis Yellow along with a few other details about which tire I am running such as 3C or Exo+/DD

I use that as a guide as to who to ride with. If they can't be bothered with the details, they will have problems on our rides, which I do not want to deal with.
