eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

All lovely photos, but the last one really stands out.

I love it at night time when out riding in seemingly nowhere all on your own, yet within sight are towns and cities. It is quite an empowering/invigorating thing, which is made even better on a clear night with stars shining bright.

As for the sign, I wonder how often that we all come across signs like that.

Took a ride through the forrest downtown. Not often I'm there these days so it was cool exploring the hills in the city. I was up to a few churches and then crossed a great bridge with nice view.

/edit: was thinking of something else

Those signs are not really valid, they put up signs of prohibition on some places but only in rare occasions do they have legal ground. But anyway, here on some trails it is actually prohibited so you have to stick to the other trails, there are ALOT of them here. Really crowded area, don't like it so much, prefer the wilderness at my place

Thanks, it was sure a great view, wish I brought the real camera.

Had to take the lunch off and take a ride in this fantastic weather we had today! Like -5 degrees and a strange feeling because the autumn leaves is still here but it's only a few days until christmas. Great whatsoever!

Totally in awe of both the terrain and photos.

Very inspirational.

What is both depressing and funny to me, is that I am looking at those photos whilst sitting with a hot castor oil compress on my knee, unable to ride, whilst my mates are out for a night ride. Your photos have just rubbed salt into the wound.

Lovely winters evening for a ride out and stopped to take a pic or two. .
I realize this might not be everyone's cup of tea when compared to other night shots on here, but in an earlier life I used to earn money with my camera and always liked night photography without flash and am continually amazed by this humble phone camera.

 

[EddiePJ]

Good to see you out Gubbins.

Keep the photos coming.

 

[Gubbins]

Got some bad sh*t in my life at the mo, so a night ride out really hits the spot!! And guess what? 10 minutes in and main light battery went!! LOL Need better prep next time..

 

[EddiePJ]

Sorry to hear that, on both counts.

I can honestly say that going for night rides, is by far the best way to clear the head and to chill.
Even better if you stop to take the time to star gaze on a bright cold clear night.

Hope that you get things sorted soon.

Yes the battery thing was a bit of a bummer, especially after all SW's help and advice.. I didnt take the spare battery but good job I run with more than one light..

Does your camera perform better with the red tail light than the bright front white light ?

Just stopped for a "P" and used my phone without its flash but if I were to point it at the front light we wouldn't see much!!

 

[IR772]

If you look at the tree bark you see good detail from the red light.

The white front light just provides a glare.

You were playing Block Busters when you were out as well?
