Got out on the Tazer FS today


Love that Tazer Chris, where you riding at there?, dont recognise it.

Anyway, managed a quick ride out today, was at my daughters and every bike i have there has at least one issue making it unrideable :roll: :facepalm:

The only one i could get close to rideable in short time was the Sex Too, but as you can see the forks are shot, but it was only a short flat ride :D and very boggy in places from the overnight rain.

Re:

Went out for a short ride around my home town today, in OK weather..

And in the fall that means that cleaning takes just as long as the ride itself.

Well, after a drizzly morning, I popped out for a few hours before sunset around the leafy sunken lanes, disused railways and towpaths of the Staffordshire Moorlands.
Steed for the day was my Overbury's Cross Fell, 1985.




All the best,

Re:

I love that Overbury's.

Despite best intentions I didn't get out on Saturday (I did, however, dig a long trench and run a cable to my bike-cave, ready for power in the winter months to keep me tinkering in the dark nights)
 
Thanks...after a few years of meandering through the weird and wonderful world of early 90s suspension, I'm coming around again to the simplicity of an 80s rigid steel bike like the ones I started riding with.

We'll let you off the ride..it was for the greater good of winter tinkering :D

All the best,
