Hi All,

I recently got back on the bike after a few years away, stumbled across your forum and see it has some good input so rather than just browsing have joined up!

Hope to contribute soon.

Welcome along, usual tip, keep an eye on the calendar on top right.
What and where do you ride?

Great question, I let quite a lot of my kit go a couple of years back regrettably so am in the market for something new. My son just started riding and I bought a SS 29er that rekindled the love so have been thrashing that around areas like Warley and Thorndon quite a lot lately (well thrashing as much as fitness has allowed).

I have been looking at the new style trail bikes that are on the market, things have changed a little whilst I was away :roll: :roll: so thinking a 1x10 / 1x11 with 140-160mm travel machine is what I want as an all purpose trail machine so I can head out to some of the big trails. Already replanning summer holidays and think a trip up to Wales is on the cards as that used to be my favorite weekend camping with the bikes.

Welcome mate. I really want to do some camping away with the bikes, pop up tent camp fire few beers then some trails the next day. Can it get any better ?

Nothing better to be honest, I used to go all the time and now I am back can't be sure why I ever gave it a rest!

A little work on the fitness and some new wheels and I am off again! Now time to pack the landy with the camping kit, beers and bikes at get exploring
