      Just the other day, I haven't been riding on the trails recently due to not living near any :'( also will you guys ever look at doing a race in southern Africa? My suggestion would be the Desert Dash in Namibia! It's a 373km race across the Namib Desert! Would be nice to see you guys try something like that. Love the vids, keep it up!

    Every time I go out in the rain I dry the thing off with a rag, helps clean it while it's still wet but as it's all drying on that corrosion starts and then it's more difficult to deal with. It might take a little while and you need a proper place around the house to do it but all the little things you check as you go around with a rag saves a lot of time with maintenance in the long run. Also your not polluting anything except the rag and that's easy to store out the way and then dispose of properly in a variety of ways.

    Not to forget, washing your bike in a pond releases grease and oil into the environment. People who preach about picking up trash from the trail and then do that kind of stuff are uncool.

    • @mtbboy1993
      @mtbboy1993 6 лет назад +1

      depends on the lube used, but grease won't get out as easily, due to seals, but water can come in.
      there are temperamentally friendly lubes, that don't hurt the nature, but most lubes are nasty stuff.

      I fell knee-deep on a creek once - fat bike, early winter, broken ice on a dubious trail. The bike's smell was unbearable. We stopped at a car wash. Best $5 spent on bicycle-related stop.
      Done as well after obscenely muddy frozen cross races. I only really do it when it's below zero since I prefer to do this calmly at home, but for those conditions car washes are great.
