Yes
I'm sure I won't be the only one to dig out their old bike for the virus exercise ride
Here is my Specialized M2 Stumpjumper Comp circa 1998, forgot what a nice bike it is to ride
Groupset mix of LX, XT and XTR with a Syncros seat post, Race Face stem, Easton CT2 risers and Odi Lock On grips
Fizik Gobi Ti saddle, Magura Quake oil/coil forks and DMR V12 Ti pedals

Pumped up the tyres, lubed the chain, checked all the essential bits and off I went (tentatively)
Here is mine, what you got?

I have a Giant terrano brought back in 2007. This bike has been bomb proof, and has been my daily hack for many years. It must have done thousands of miles!

I am using this down time to do maintenance tasks I never normally have time for. While I replace chains, brake pads and cassette's as I go, as it was feeling a little notchy I have ordered a new bottom bracket, and also gave her a polish.

The things you do when you have time on your hands.

Was a reasonable spec, and has lasted the time well.

Put some road tyres on the Charge Duster, hardly done any biking in a few years except for the spinning bike. Got a Saracen Morzine and Helix in the roof too but need to get my legs going first.20200410_161709.jpg
