9c this morning, a pleasant enough plod about, all on the road unfortunately. 25 miles in the bank. Just over a thousand for me this year which is down a bit on previous years as my regular cycle mate has packed it in due to heart problems. I'm surprised I've been out as much as I have really on my own . It's not many miles compared to some on here but it's still more than I've done on one of my Ducati's this year. Oh dear...
Thanks. I'm 52 in a few days time and we have people at work who are 32 and they get out of breath walking up the short set of stairs .
I’ve barely been out of the garage for weeks. Today would have been perfect but I’m down with manflu.
One day they'll have a nasty health scare, the piss taking will stop and the exercising/pedaling will commence.
Manflu is definitely holding me back, but I cycled to work for a few hours and back home. The wife wanted some meds for the dog so I went out again but included a few miles off roading on my way home.
As my right knee is buggered and will be so for some time, I was contemplating my bike and wondered if anyone has converted their mountain bike to an electric motor. I see there are some options to fit one in the bottom bracket. Any opinions ?
Plenty of ne'er-do-wells flying about on converted bikes. These kits look like the motor is part of the rear hub and the battery slung under the crossbar. Each kit comes with a free balaclava and stab vest...
A quick search offered me this as a retailer. https://electric-bike-conversions.c...et-standard-and-electric-bike-conversion-kits
Cheers, thats where i had been looking. Anyone done this, or has everyone still good good joints.....
Me and the youngest got out for our traditional Christmas Day cycle, only 10.3 miles but it was great to get out.
