— bikes and things

Kobe Ti to be retired for a while

I’ve been talking about it for a while but I’ve gone and bought a full suspension frame 2nd hand off eBay in apparently immaculate condition. I’ve been riding her since around 2004 time so counts as the longest time I’ve owned a bike. I can’t bring myself to sell or give away to anyone so she’s going in the loft to one day be used again perhaps. I’ve ridden a lot of miles on this bike and enjoyed every moment of it. From the Surrey Hills, Wales, Scotland and even to Les Arcs in France. All has been great fun.

Anyway, I think I need a bit of spring in the rear (snigger) these days to take the sting out of some of the trails. So here’s the last few moments in tasteful black and white – an excuse to use the camera really.

    Build it up as a jump / play bike.

    Good to see you’ve got the important amateur mechanic’s lubrication in that last pic.

    Yeah, not any more room for more bikes at the moment I think and barely have time to ride the one with all my work, photography and internet consumption! (and some time for Emma in there)
