Haunted cottage round to the right. (SWB pic, not Golspie).Did you boulder in the bay? Nice pics.
Red tyres AND wheel reflectors, omg
How are you liking your Stumpy Adam? After initially not really liking mine that much at all we've now clicked and really enjoying it now.
You could beef up the tyres a bit but then pure XC would still suffer. Enduro can certainly take a lot of abuse. I'm confident my stumpy should be able to take most trail-centre abuse, especially now I'm a lot less fat

Off to Afan valley next week so will have a go on my mates enduro.

Then again, not sure about the extra weight. Its a tough one. Other than that, i love it. Might buy an enduro for the harder days, and keep the stumpy for the longer, more xc stuff off the man made trails. Did a 60k ride in Scotland this weekend, with a fair bit of road on it, i struggled on these sections.

Surely the Enduro would be better for the tougher xc off road stuff and the Stumpy better for (smoother) trail centres and mileage?
Maybe change my big bulky tyres out for some smaller ones.
Hike a bike, exposure, big mountains – all things we like. Harald Philipp and Martin Falkner head to the Ortler region, climb some big old mountains and ride some nice steep slopes. It’s beautifully shot and we particularly like the fact the pair of them ride with an espresso maker, gas stove, big lump of meat and some proper china cups for their coffee. That’s class.
