Just got back into Mountain biking after a 15 year gap....

Bought myself an e'Bike using part of my Westfield sale funds

.... helping me get some fitness back after years of slovenlyness. 

 

I do still have my 'vintage classic' Marin Mount Vision, which was only used as my Silverstone Classic hack.....

Updating my 2000 entry.   Road biking still remains the largest time consumer.   But Started social mountain biking on a Thursday evening followed by the pub.   My 1998 Merlin 26” hard tail with Judy front shocks was very dated.    Before i knew it I’d also bought an E-MTB like @Onliest Smeg (David Richings).. absolutely love it.

My main ‘hobby’ these days seems to be fixing whichever item my 83 year old neighbour just broke. The curse of ‘the useful man’.

Still got a set in the garage - along with the Marin Pine Mountain frame they were attached to back in the 90’s. Must get an e bike as that’s the only way I’ll be able to take up mountain biking again…

Help someone when they're in trouble and they'll remember you again... when they're in trouble... :oops:

More spannering than riding on the enduro and the occasional tidying up of the garage!! 😂

Standard with the newer KTM more tine fixing than riding over the older models, I’ve gone back to Suzuki

(it's the camshaft)

(without a camshaft, maintenance goes down to hose the thing, grease the chain and pre mix fuel)

Studied photography at a local college as a night course after work and travelling before COVID trashed that one.

Apart from the never ending looking after the ASBO my absolute passion in life is to SCUBA dive, what other image.png.86a13f29f80239ab7714cc621aeabe56.pnghobby gets you away from the bickering of the in-laws and as close to nature all in one splash
