Typically the only day on the weekend I get to go out biking and it's bloody raining and windy as hell.

Had to buy a new saddle today, done a 30 miler yesterday and realised my saddle had seen better days. My arse aches today.
Also gave me the excuse to by a reverb at the same time.

Trying to decide between a hybrid or a 29" wheeled hard tail for biking to work and back. Road bike is too much hassle in a city centre tbh.

It does this:
It's for riding to the train, folding up, getting on the train, getting off the train, unfolding and then riding to work. Which is what I shall use it for...

How quick can you fold it up or down?
I think it's strangely cool.

You can do it in a few seconds, you see people doing while getting on and off the train. I'm a n00b so it takes me longer, need some practice

Christening the boy. Well that's what I've been informed. Would've been nice to be asked or consulted on the subject. Must be a need to know thing and I don't need to know to pay for it all. Lol

Suppose I'm somewhat spoiled with having Sambo and Miami riding my local trails so you see them out and about also cutting new trails in a lot.
Almost had a big over the bars earlier, I was giving it some down a steep track and almost got buckaroo'd on a steep section with 3 1 meter step downs in close succession.
