Ok lots of threads for the most bling, nice, niche etc etc.. show us your nice bikes thrashed, used and abused. Well used or crashed.....
can I post my BMX in all three categories?
does falling 80-odd metres down the side of a mountain then still being ridden (in the alps) for the rest of the week count as a thrashing?
b17 were you at The White Room a couple of weeks ago?
Trusty Inbred.
10 year old pedals.
8 year old fork.
Raced it, crashed it, bashed it, but I just can't kill it.

kramer - I was indeed. Very glad that Stevo had rope gear!
b17, he made us get off and walk that section. Something about not wanting to have to go hunting for another bike!
It was the off camber rock in the wet that did it! The only really exposed bit for miles around... We didn't ride it properly again after that. There are plenty of other excellent bits in Sainte Foy without 100m drops.
Shhh! Don't tell everyone, let them go to Manzine.
Here is the bike I cannot kill...

You can see the dent in the top tube and look closely for where the dropouts have been welded after the chainstays cracked. Note... there are almost NO original components on it since they are all all broken or worn out.
It's a love/hate thing 😈
I've been trying to break it since I bought it in 1995... I've only managed a few times but never permanently... but I'll keep trying 😀
Even if I do I'll probably fix it so I can break it AGAIN 😈
