Pic of the Day

[Dirtnvert]

Ahooooooo!!

 

[KnollyBro]

No snow on the mountains yet so we still get to hit the high trails! They were a bit slick today at 5 degrees so mind the diagonal roots!
A Line - Steep, wet and full of roots.

B Line - Slick!

And the video NEVER shows how steep it actually is...

 

[Mcharza]

The gondola was closed today due to high winds. So tighten the chain and go up under your own power

 

[Husky430]

Ruts are a bit deep around here

Great going down only to find a deadend and the inevitable push/walk mode back up. All good exercise tho

Out for a spin last night. Far too cold to take the gloves off for a photo but I've worked out why it wasn't changing gear very well.

And to think I get pissed when I get dust on my deraillieur

 

[RustyMTB]

I've pulled about 30 yards of grass & reeds out of the axles & pulleys along with four tons of mud. Currenty vacillating between a full tear down & setting it on fire & buying a new one.

Another good day riding in sunny Spain. A very good winter escape.

Tell me about it. Only did 10 miles but the grass wrapped around the transmission including the chainring mixed with mud is fecking horrible to clean. Have to pull the strands of grass out of the pulleys one by one. And it was getting dark at the same time. F*ck f*ck fuck (third time lucky )

You lucky bleeder!
It's done nothing but rain here for weeks. I can't even walk on my lawn without it squelching. Even the pond has overflowed!

Harder you work, the luckier you get

I haven't been short of hard work, nor luck for that matter (I too can post plenty of exotic pics taken abroad), I just happen to live in the UK, which is proper wet right now.

lived in Los Cristanos for about 3 years and used to ride my moped (ebikes these days would have more power) around the hills and out past 10 Bells towards the airport on Tenerife, is that where you are/this pic is?

Your max speed is insane!

Max speed 47 mph, bet pedalling up that hill is a bit slower!

Thats got to be a Garmin/strava glitch, if you look at the graph it barely breaks 50 KPH

Yes and when it does break 50 Km/h it’s on a climb

 

[RustyMTB]

I routinely get over 45mph recorded on Strava. I'd always assumed it was my Olympic standard fitness.
