Hey i wore a dork vest for most of the race. Only ditched it for the last stage.
I need to borrow a bum bag just for @kidwoo . I know he'd appreciate the effort and totally never bring it up repeatedly in a mocking manner.

Did you sit down the entire way?
Hell yes...why waste the energy...I can saddle almost anything.. jumps too.. standing is for beginners... Real seasoned old dudes just sit back and cruise...Did you sit down the entire way?

Just got back to Oz from a couple weeks in Madeira, Portugal doing the Trans Madeira and drinking beers. Was supposed to go in 2020 for my 40th but COVID sharted on that plan - lucky the race guys let me postpone my entry. Proper quality scene over there. Two big crashes scared me into behaving myself, but still managed to finish mid-pack in the old boys category. Got to ride the "best track in the world" and can confirm it certainly isn't over hyped.
Euro Monkeys - if you haven't been, I can't recommend enough going for a week of shuttles with the FreeRide Madeira crew. Its well worth the visit.

you have a dropper. -5000 Gary points.Took the old @Gary ™ bike out today (26" wheeled hardtail with 10 year-old single compound tires on skinny rims, 80mm coil fork with no damping, cable disc brakes) to ride some wet east coast roots and rocks. Still had a lot of fun / arm pump!

One of our home trails is getting a refresh.
We had a solid apéro huck session after the ride. This bike hasn’t been ridden in 10 years. We pumped up the tires and hucked it to flat. It was surprisingly good!
