Thought it would be fun to do a 20 year MTB showdown – my old 1991 Specialized Stumpjumper vs the circa 2011 Ibis Mojo HD. Over the next month or two the ‘plan’ is to take both bikes out on a few adventures — XC, AM, Downhill etc — and assuming the Stumpy doesn’t kill me, see what differences 20 years of MTB make out on the trail!

It’s been ages since I’ve used the Ay-Up Lights as there’s been no need for night riding to escape the Summer heat — it only made a brief appearance. Bit of a bummer in a way as being out in the bush at night is great fun. So with the days getting shorter and the end of daylight savings not too far away it was time to charge up the lights and go nocturnal Mojo HD style. (more…)

Dunno what it is with this one tree in particular. I just seem to keep clipping it with the end of the handlebar. (more…)
