Thanks Russell. Really appreciate that. And thanks for taking the time to watch 😁

Great route again!!! Have a look at the ‘76 Projects’ Enduro mount. Sticks the Garmin to the top tube out of harms way 👍🏻👍🏻

Cheers rufus. I’ve thought about what you suggested in the past. Don’t like it on the frame. It’s to hard to see without proper looking down and taking eyes off the trail. I just need to be more careful in future 🤣

How you finding those grips Andy? Help with pump and fatigue?…. Thanks for the video!

Hi mate. Very comfortable grips. I bought them because of arm pump which they have helped with a great deal. It’s nice having that big flat section to rest your hands on. Won’t ever go back to round I don’t think. Worth a punt on to see if you like them.

Hi again Andy, done parts of this route, a cracker and will deffo be giving this version a whizz, can I pls ask what cassette set you changed to when you went wireless, yours looks awesome, love the copper look👍

Hi Mitch. Hope your well bud. Yep pretty long one that. But one of those rides where you blast the miles off quickly

Can't help thinking you'd be better off living the down country dream and getting yourself a short travel bike instead of the ripmo. I do very similar rides to you on mine(trek top fuel) and its is a little weapon. Ride it more than my bigger travel bike now.

@TrailFinder

Couldn’t believe it when I saw this comment as that’s exactly what I’m doing. I 100% agree with you. The ripmo although a very good bike, is to much for what I do.

Hard to believe these days they haven't put protection over all the pots, makes me feel sick just watching you - shuffled toward Gaping Gill once before the bottle went, still makes me queasy when I think about it... 🤮😀
