gravity dropper for me. all mechanical and every component is replaceable (not had to replace owt). iv had mine approx 6 years its just getting to the point where im thinking of replacing it. a riding mate has had his 8 years and its just broken to the point of not worth repairing it. id definately get another one.

i'll be in bed after nightshifts, but keep a look out for nick, they often ride the peaks on weekends. hebden bridge looks a right mess at the moment. no surprise as in some places round there the river banks are higher than the main road.

to cut a long story short, some garmin gps devices (including mine)are crap at measuring altitude gain on a ride. at the end of wednesdays ride mine showed approx 4500 ft.....i knew this was way over measured. so decided to plot the route we did on my basecamp on the PC. so not including the bit extra where we (I) missed the turn off, the plotted route measured almost 2800ft of climbing. is that anywhere near anyone elses measured height gain from the ride?

excellent ride today, good to meet more new faces (to me) lee and jack.heavy going in parts, dint help by overshooting the turn off on derwent edge by 2 miles, but was worth the descent to the waters edge in the end.wonderful views from up there. i'll post photos soon.
