Bike park day before Mother's Day celebrations.

Rode up to Alport Height today (Derbyshire) worth a ride up of your ever in the Belper/Wirksworth area. The views are amazing, on a day like today you can see as far as the Wrekin and Long Mynd (60 odd mile away). Zoom it up in the picture viewer. That big column of rock in centre is the Alport Stone, some say it's neolithic others say it's remnants of centuries past quarrying, although they don't say why anyone would quarry the very top of a hill, when they only had pack horses to get the stone down.

No photo from my short ride this evening but I did chance across a fellow rider downed. Two of her friends with her , waiting for the ambulance. Obvs offered any help they needed but they had it buttoned down. Timely reminder this sport is gnarly. Take care out there.
 
love it, 21.5kg
Let's play Amflow "Top Trumps." 20.2 kg. :ROFLMAO:

You need to name your bike in the App. Her name is Libby, short for Liberace, as she likes all things gold ...... 🤭

Libby and I love coming to this spot, as it's just coming into Whale Watching season. But there weren't any yesterday. But peak viewing is in June, so I told Libby she just needs to be patient .......

Anyway ....... Nice ride. The ocean has always been a great head clearer for me ....... And is why I have always lived so close. 500 metres to the sand from my place.

4x4 with steel wheels. Rusty heap, no ladder frame chassis (so not a Landy) - Fiat Panda 4x4?

A few more details that may not be obvious in the pictures, 5 stud wheels, vented front discs, I was thinking Japanese but you may well be right.

Having arrived up there with a developing cold ( still not fully shaken) ..which I eventually decided to share with Dave & Tony ..it could be that like me others are still recovering & are too knackered to post anything right now ..apologies .
I will get around to it eventually ..in the meantime here is one from a glorious ribbon of singletrack which we were going to ride as a circular loop..( having done Heartbreak Ridge in the morning but having climbed for nearly 3miles to the high point decided that it was just too good not to ride back down ..so that's what we did ..twas superb!

Gentlemen, get well soon! 👍
 
What handlebar do you have and how much rise ?
Are you asking about my Amflow ? If you are. They are Renthal FatBars Lite Alloy Bars - Gold - 35mm - 20mm Rise - 760mm width. I needed the narrower width because of the tightness of trees in some of the trails I ride. And I didn't want to cut down my carbon bars.

Last night I fitted the Alloy Mullet wheelset I have. If I stick with the mullet wheelset. I will replace the alloy rims with carbon rims in the future, and in which case I will probably cut the carbon bars down and refit, to go with the lightest possible options.

Lightness without compromising power or range is the reason I chose the Amflow PL Carbon Pro. So I do want to maintain the lightest options.
