    seen a kool little MB hanging on the back of a car while on the way home
    from work last night...
    Was no longer a bush bike... had cut the crank bearing houseing off it
    and relaced it with what looked like one of those little 50cc 2t pit bike motors..


    My type of push bike

    speaking of pushies I went for a ride today - it was so spectacular i have to go again tomorrow. I love Spring!

    Went up to the snow on Thurs with the kids class. I missed out on the snow bike they had had up there - apparently a ski on front & studded tyre on rear.

    Didn't get last either...

    I broke my 2nd hand Fizik Gobi seat a few months ago.
    It's quite common for the Gobi's to snap the plastic of the shell in the middle.
    Mine was otherwise in mint condition and looked brand new.

    Today's email...

    Dear Fran

    Thank you for your e-mail and sorry for the problem occured.

    I will send you a new saddle asap.

    Regards

    looks sweet, other than the seat angle, that looks mostly uncomfortable and somewhat intimate.

    More comfy than the Fizik Tundra that's going on it.

    Single speeded my fun bike to see what it was all about.
    39/18 gearing and a Surly Singulator to take up the slack.
    50s faster over a 25min ride around Bridge and Gibbs valleys.
    Wasn't consciously going any faster and the grind up the hill felt much shower but was actually about the same speed.
    The first 6 (of 8km) averaged 5kph faster than normal.
    Looks like that with this gearing, if the ride is from 20-25kph average speed, then it's more efficient for me than gears.
    At about 30kph on the gravel stretch home, it was geared too low...

    Numbers are fun...
    Until they hurt your knees...
