Share your pics of less than stellar riding, when you felt like a riding god.
Mincecore light, enduro-poop, xc_wuss, we love it.

Me - keeping it real with the kids at bike club, so thought I would try the tabletop they were sessioning.

Ah, I thought I recognised the step but not the pic. I was one of the photographers at the 2018 event 🙂

My own pic: 12hrs of Exposure, Newcastleton, 2012. Lap four or five, can't remember. Finally decided to have a bit of fun and pop the little rock drop on th 90-degree left hand corner. Joolz Dymond was sat below it, much to my surprise...

At a Gorrick XC race last year. Felt massive. Probably about as far as my wheels have intentionally been off the ground.

I only compete once a year as a family team so pics are a bit thin on the ground. I can't even blame the bike as it has had a lot of air time before I borrowed it.

I dont often get pictured in the air. This was a still from a mates video, makes it look bigger than it actually was.

Seeing that has inspired me to get the bike out now and go for a ride.

QECP Enduro a few years back. Just before I fell off cos it was a bit steep. Now [i]that[/i] is what you call less than mediocre! 😆

At the Skatebowl earlier today, just pumping round it definitely not getting air. Shortly after I attempted to exit without enough speed or any force through front wheel and consequentally fell off and now have a stiff neck and shoulder. Awesome.

Ha, these are brilliant!

Here’s me, enormous fatty, thoroughly enjoying the final stage on the Ard Rock 2018. What a brilliant day out!

The focus. The concentration. The intensity. The going about 10mph. 😀

A year ago, with about 25 miles of MTB riding under my belt since 15+ years ago. I'd hope now, with about 1000 miles, I'd be going at least 12mph. 😀

Not pictured, Jedi telling me I ride like I'm stoned. Still not sure whether that was meant to be encouraging or not...
