Man, there's a lot of people doing a lot of miles around these parts lately. Kudos to you lot but I think I'll stick to my gentle twenty-mile bimbles. I associate cycling with sheer enjoyment and wouldn't want to anything to break that connection.
Obligatory hangage daguerreotype from today:
Also, check out this awesome ramp, well over five feet high. Shame somebody parked it right in front of big concrete bollard.
I attacked it a few times but bottled out right at the top. There's a big enough landing gap to the side (especially with the pallet moved) but a wonky landing could bring the bollard into play, and I was on my own. If someone else was with me egging me on with emergency services on speed dial I might have attempted it. Maybe.
But probably not.
I've done drops of slightly lower height but not onto concrete.
