Part of the CSG news is that Mongoose will be leaving the UK market I thought?

it’s been a bike that I’ve used – and enjoyed – a lot more than I expected it to.

Yep I can totally relate to this. I bought a Nukeproof Solum on a whim earlier in the year from CRC in one of the sales.

I love it! It has improved my pump track / jumping technique a lot. Still fairly rubbish at it overall mind you.

Another thing that I've found as I have got older, is that my usual XC/trail riding is not really improving any more...and if I am honest is maybe even going a bit backwards slightly in terms of speed, as I get older/slower.

The great thing about starting right at the beginning again with a different sort of riding is that there is so much scope to improve at so many new things. The mind boggles what to work on really.

PS: Also a great way of keeping your hand, skills wise, in when the trails are all muddy and you CBA

They’re great when you only have an hour as you can nip to the local pump track and exhaust yourself in 30-45 minutes.

My LBS used to call bikes like these 'mid-life crisis' bikes.
