Restoring a neglected 90s bike - 20km test ride

Ойын-сауық

I shook off cabin fever by test riding a rusty old mtb. This battered old CCM mountain bike still has some life left in it!

    The bike is an old Canadian-made CCM mtb. I'm not sure when it was purchased, but it's from the late 90s or early 00s. I learned quite a bit from this ride, so stay tuned for the next installment!

    @@radarbase Exactly. It's not much fun with new E-bikes, GPS devices, panniers etc.. Old bike, rucksack, paper map and just go😁

    Glad you were able to get out! Being sick is the worst glad you are better! Beautiful views, I have to admit I'm jealous of the drone and your editing! The biking in the cold makes my lungs hurt just watching! 🥶 Yes just because something is old, doesn't mean its useless. Another fantastic vid, looking forward to more!! Merry Christmas!! 🎄😀 Oh and nice Singer 4411 behind you!

    Merry Christmas to you too, Jim. I hope it's a good one. The drone is a ton of fun, but a little nerve wracking to fly in certain conditions and locations 😂 Good eye for the sewing machine. It won't be until after Christmas some time, but you'll see some of what I've been working on with it in the next video!

    It was a little early for us to have so much snow too -- it's all slushy from rain after today! Glad you're still enjoying the videos 😊

    Lots of potential with this, looking forward to seeing where you go with it. Are any of your trails rideable? Can`t help thinking a Fatbike would be perfect .

    A fatbike would be ideal -- but for now I'll be fixing up and modifying this plain old mtb! The scenic East Coast Trail segments are for hikers only, but there's a lot of other trails suitable for biking that I'm excited to check out
