    MUDDY WATERS (Spanish midlands)

    Hi guys (not gays)

    Just wanted to share summary of a fantastic ride yesterday. We did some hundreds kms along central area of Spain, very interesting after a lot of rainy days ... paths deleted by overflown rivers , a lot of mud on existing tracks ... very very funny. Some pics ...

    It's me after energency land taking I had front mudguard blocked by clay i was trying to unblock it but after several meters with FR wheel blocked ...


    Hi performance 15 years old domi front end ---> lower unsprung mass ===> better ride performance

    And its consequences:












    That bridge (over quiet waters ) was for people only ... then, first volunteer went on:


    And


    And after some time unfloading some bike parts ...


    Started on again

    ................ see this video

    Hope you like it ... Bye

    Look like you had a great time. Riding with a big group who help each other out allows you to tackle stuf you'd never try otherwise.

    No, Chad doesn't speak English either!

    Translation: Well that's extraordinary! Now they are what one might call "puddles"! (i.e. Ironically describing them as a small amount of water.)

    OK?
