I hope to participate in this ride, but only if I can remove the child seat from the back of the bike.

As for lights I have bought a dolphin, so hopefully Picky or someone else has had experience gaffe taping a dolphin to a Mongoose.

Around Narrabeen Lakes three weeks ago I was flying (I hit 20 kilometres per hour a few times), so I am eagered to test my metal against other MTB'ers.

Cheers bigears

Bigears, I'm sure a dolphin will be fine. SOme of these guys have absolutely ridiculous lighting systems Smiling

WHen riding at Terry Hills with them, at one stop I turned off my lights to save the battery . After a kilometer more riding, I realised that I had forgotten to turn them back on again!

Then the Dolphin can pedal too. Not too tight with the gaffer tape...

the flippers will slip off the pedals, ahh hang on, thats what the gaff tape is for is it Pikey?

Matt's picture

The gaffer's for taping the sardine to your back so the lazy hoop jumping excuse for a mammal put's a bit of effort in...

christine's picture

way you lot are going on it will be used to tape your mouths shut!!
hee hee - sorry, just had champagne!

MEE Smiling

I’m glad there is no torch called a gerbil !!!

Imagine where that could lead?

GAZZA's picture

Stuart M's picture

Volker's picture

I will see if I can keep up with you guys, I have done more running than biking lately.

Buck's picture

I'll be there. But I'm going to take a friend of mine who is just new to MTB. So we'll go slow at the back and you all can race ahead. There's no way he can do Terrey Hills averaging 17kmh yet.

But we'll meet you back at the pub for a beverage Smiling

I’m the n00b friend of Buck’s and have only ridden this bike twice… Am recovering from a knee injury/operation too, so will be taking it very easy.

Just joined the forums, it’s a great resource!

Looking forward to meeting you guys..........

1st at the start..... then as you pass me on the way back..... and finally at the tav (if I make it back Sticking out tongue)

Cheers,

Loz
