@Absolutemtb1 The Santa Cruz SL is definitely worth a look. Only 18kg. Closest biggish travel eMTB to a normal bike feel.

A friend had asked which is the best light weight e-bike for, in their words “a small weak person to lug about” Any suggestions? 😎🤙👇

@_AshleyRichmond What about if you are lactose intolerant? I use oat milk.

Plant-based milk isn't the health food marketers say it is. It's full of seed oils and weird ingredients that are anything but healthy. Stick with real milk (raw if possible) or water.

@Absolutemtb1 Dominican Republic tomorrow. Full send at FoD today🤣

I know a lot of you don’t do it, but I don’t ride a week before my holiday in case I break myself! Turbo trainer it is. Have a great day all 😎🤙

@Absolutemtb1 @ski_57 @UKMTB_Chat @Hotwheels_1978 Nice double day for me and Tom. Cwm carn Saturday. FOD on Sunday

Q3 #UKMTBChat What plans have you got for the weekend? Any riding taking place?

@Absolutemtb1 @scarey13 @WillPoole That sounds fun. I like the 1 bike idea.

I’ve got a challenge idea @scarey13 @WillPoole & anyone else that fancies it. 1 XC loop, 1 hill climb, 1 DH run. All back to back. I have the routes in mind. Fastest total time wins. You in?

1st race of the season went well. 1st place vet 50 at materley basin. Course surprisingly dry after the awful weather we’ve been having. Thanks to TY cycles in chipping Norton for their support 🙏

1st pre race ride of the new season done. Even blessed with half decent temperatures and a bit of sun !! All set for tomorrow at materley basin @SouthernXC #tycycles

@scarey13 @Absolutemtb1 @WillPoole @AbsoluteGravel Downside is the price of them.

@ChamberlainMarc @Absolutemtb1 @WillPoole @AbsoluteGravel Will have a look cheers

Looking at new XC bikes hit me up with your suggestions, see if I've missed anything? @Absolutemtb1 @WillPoole @AbsoluteGravel

@UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1 I’m up in Cannock chase this Saturday and Sunday. Anyone know any decent 5-6 hr routes around the chase. I’m familiar with the trail Center but may get a bit repetitive for that long.

@steviewood_1976 @UKMTB_Chat @WHOOP @Absolutemtb1 @UKCycleChat Hi. I’ve used a whoop bsnd since March. Good for tracking HRV and lifestyle factors that can improve/worsen it. Not going to essentially improve your training, just tell you if your body is ready for it. I think if you truly listen to your body you know that anyway.

Anyone on here I know use @whoop Good, bad or meh? Basically wanting to move my training/fitness/lifestyle up a notch and it seems to be what I want... Any of your followers @Absolutemtb1 @UKMTB_Chat @UKCycleChat have any experience?

@Absolutemtb1 FoD today. Little group of 3. As wet as I’ve seen it. But still great fun.

So where’s everyone ridden this weekend then? You all had a good one? 😎🤙

@BreathingByEd @FitFastCoach Ed

It’s well-known that sleep is the no.1 performance hack. Today, I am releasing a breathwork session I give all my clients that guarantees 8 hours of sleep a night. My clients pay $$$ for this recording but for 24 hours it’s FREE. Like & comment ‘Ed’ & I’ll DM you a copy.

@Cycling_holiday And then some. You will get so looked after you will not want to come away 😍

Building on a superb reputation! We look after you well here! cyclingholidayspain.com

@skullcrusherco Why does the flash 50 code never work? Tried it on 4 separate occasions. Each time, this code is not valid 😡

Truer words have never been spoken. Who else literally is only alive thanks to coffee? #coffee #coffeeaddict #strongcoffee #coffeememe

@scarey13 @Absolutemtb1 @UKMTB_Chat Amazing. Thanks a lot.

@ChamberlainMarc @Absolutemtb1 @UKMTB_Chat Sent you a couple of options , give me a follow on Strava and you can get routes off there

Looking to do a loop around the Brecon Beacons. 4-5hr. Anyone got any recommendations. @UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1

@scarey13 @UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1 I’ve rode the area in several MTB events. Merida marathon series etc. I know it a bit but not enough to piece it together. Started out from crickhowell once. Stunning area

@ChamberlainMarc @UKMTB_Chat @Absolutemtb1 Gap route is a good route, got a couple of good routes around the Black mountains, when you are thinking of doing this ride , obviously better with good weather

@Absolutemtb1 @UKMTB_Chat @scarey13 Hoping to do it in the next 3-4 weeks. Depends how the weather treats us.

@ChamberlainMarc @UKMTB_Chat @scarey13 That’s the one. It depends how fit you are though cos I can do the gap in under 3 hours and I’m not super fit. There are variations to extend it though. When are you thinking of doing it?

@Absolutemtb1 @UKMTB_Chat @scarey13 Cheers. I did the gap road in a MTB sportive called the Brecon beast about 10 years ago. I remember the descent down from the top of that to be great fun.

@ChamberlainMarc @UKMTB_Chat The Gap is the most common one and possibly the easiest to follow. @scarey13 may be your man for advice 😎🤙
