Is sticking sardines in your ears a well known Scottish custom? Just asking.

Sardines or Kippers,guaranteed a seat to yourself on the train.

its a lot of bike for 3K (euros)

Perfect conditions at my other local today. It's only a small forest on the edge of the city, but one of those places where the more you look the more you find.

New motor and suspension tunes almost makes it feel like a different bike!

First ride out since mid December ( for all sorts of reasons ..but mainly constant rain !)..and as the " natural " trails we prefer to ride are too sodden ..Whinlatter Trail Centre in the Lake District was our destination of choice ...
Ant ,Jaco & Wayne..along with myself braving the freezing cold but remarkably dry & firm riding conditions ..spending time riding our mistresses on Valentines Day

What led to the need for a new motor?

Just a new motor tune and new suspension tune.

Just checked mission control 12 rides from December till yesterday probably another 3 on road bike. Thought that was down but on checking on last year about the same. Just seems its been a wetter last 3 months. This coming tuesday will be the best day in my area.

It has been coldest january in 15 years here in Helsinki. Morning commute has been in fresh -18 celcius many mornings It was cold this morning also but it changed fast to -8 so great riding weather. 31km’s fast (mainly) damped snow trails

We don't often get that cold here but if we do it doesn't seem that bad as there would no wind. Whereas we get 3c and wind and it seems Baltic. Just back from france skiing minus 7 or 10 most days but not cold as no wind. That's how I find it anyway.

Dont do snakes give me a highland cow with massive horns any day.

Something to hold on to Im guessing

Yeah, in the woods there`s not much wind and you stay warm anyway because of active riding but it`s nice when you ride to work in the morning in -18 celcius and it`s headwind

800mm the best

Normally but not this time...just a quick run out to the trails at Banchory. Good for shorts loops and jump time

Il fiume Tagliamento, the home river pictured in the photo, is one of the last major European Alpine rivers with a torrential character, flowing along an almost entirely natural riverbed.

 

[MeatBike]

Had an hour to kill so went for a quick blast along the coast.

Looks a bit rugged there, mate.

Cove to Torry.

I always wondered about Peterhead to Collieston but probably a walk more than cycle. Used to fly over it when working offshore. I can get from Buckie to Sandend hugging the coast or cliffs. Love coastal rides.

Aye, probably a bit sketchy in places that route. I do like a coastal ride too. Usually do this one on my gravel bike but new ebike novelty hasn't wore off yet.

It's been a long time since I've ridden an EMTB.
Great winter trails and even with summer tires. The weather was -10 C but the sun is already warming up a lot
