I determinedly went out on Friday night for my last true dry run. Have cleaned/polished/lubed the bike and fitted my all weather tyres for next week as its clear it's going to be pretty nasty by the next run.

I've ripped my bike apart, in the process of regreasing everything and having a check here and there.

Need to get my rear wheel tubeless again, need a new chain and chainguide roller, picking up brake pads this week and having a go internally mounting my gear cable then it's time for a clean and polish before being left in my bedroom till next year.

Hello single speed jump bike in Epping and a lot of street riding.

Went to Thorndon today, it has changed dramatically since last week. But still some fun to be added, like falling into a bush when you block your back wheel in a steep descent :lol:
