    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Certainly been very wet around my neck of the woods. :) Sadly localised flooding prevented me from taking some of the route that I wanted to take. I still had a good ride though, and when things are as wet as they were today, the mud just disappears from the bike and cleaning just takes...

    Flecc, you have just reminded me of this little bug/creature that I spotted a few years ago. Quite an amazing sight to see at the time.

    New ebike time, again

    I shall also be out tomorrow regardless. :) I'm kind of tempted to pop out tonight as well, but still haven't warmed up yet from working out in it all day.

    Enjoy the bike Denis, just 0shame that the ride conditions might not be the best for the first outing. :(

    Sorry Gubbins you have misunstood me when I said about the hosting. What I actually meant was, the best place to upload them to, before adding images to say a forum. Like Photobucket, Postimage, imageshack etc. But in line with your comment, I did used to belong to an online club/forum sub...

    It would be a tough job, but someone has to do it! :D

    Welcome Phil, and certainly no need to feel that you have highjacked anything. It is a bike forum before anything else. :) SW, that is any street cred that you had gone well and truly out of the window. :p While I think about it, other than not taking photos into the sun, what is the best way...

    That is something else to sort out. A decent place to host photos.

    It must be quite a tough call for a company like Orange, but then they aren't exactly stupid, so must have accepted that the mtb market is changing, and that they have to move with it, or loose out.

    Lovely. :) Flecc, you had me thinking a few weeks ago about this shot of a colony of bees that I came across whilst out on the bike on the South Downs. They have been in the same spot for two years, and last summer I thought that they had gone, when in fact the land owner had moved a gate and...

    Orange skunkworks proto...

    I was told yesterday that the expected launch date isn't July after all, it is going to be at some stage early next year. One thing is for sure, when you look on Instagram and Facebook, where photos have been posted, Orange are getting some major flack for the bike. Kind of expected given the...

    My thinking was to fit a 36t (ish) on the rear, so one way or another be it front or rear, altering the gearing will certainly give the helping hand that is required. :) Obviously front would give the most benefit. .

    No, I have never tried that. The camera has the option, so I'll give it a try. :) I have still to investigate all of the functions on the Sony, and it seemingly has many, which is kind of daunting at the moment. I should really take a look at Youtube and watch and practice from user help guides.

    It is just a free one called. BeFunky. https://www.befunky.com/ I say free, as I have been using it for a while as my old Lumix has an issue of under exposing every photo, but last weekend I decided to pay my $34.00 to have all of the available options. In many respects I am lucky as I work...

    A few shots taken when out and about over the last couple of weeks. I have been playing around with a bit of editing, and have a lot to learn so the following is just a bit of fun for me, and not to be taken as a serious effort. :) This one from a month or so ago amazed me. It was taken...

    I really should add this thread as I started it, but just for now....Gubbins, would you believe that those moth shots were taken using one of these. :) http://www.trustedreviews.com/Fujifilm-Finepix-F11-review You wouldn't believe just how scratched battered and worn that the camera is now. I...

    @Wooshbikes Just out of interest, does the Zephyr-B use the same final drive gearing as on the Karoo that I tested? I realise that the wheel size is smaller on the Zephyr, but I am wondering if a lower ratio cassette would help with things.
