new bike day, trek 3 disc

Hi

I'm new to Head-Fi and I was delighted to see this Bicycle-Fi thread as I love cycling as well as music and headphones. I ride Moulton bicycles pretty much exclusively now, I rode my first Moulton bicycle probably about fifteen years ago and I've never looked back from that.

I have a blog here:

Moulton Rider

and here is a pic of my SST taken on Hove seafront (South coast of England) in December 2020. It was a cold windy day but it turned out to be a fun ride with friends.

I'm impressed at the restoration job and your love for the bike.

@piglet you're just down the road from me (I'm Worthing)

Also I took my Vitus Nucleus for its first outing, not a long ride but it was very wet and muddy. Enjoyable and looking forward to spending more time out on it when the weather is better.

Need to play around with some pressure settings on both the tyres and forks too to find my sweet spot.

I love Worthing pier. It is so nice to have a stroll out onto it and then sit and look at the sea.

That Vitus Nucleus looks ready to conquer the South Downs!

Reminds me of when I love to ride my bike. These days I am so buried in my head-fi gear. I should ride again.

Something I really enjoy doing while cycling is stopping for a period and listening to music. Currently I use my iPhone and AirPods Pro, however more exotic portable gear could also be used.

Personally I never listen to music while actually riding the bike, but I do like to stop and listen for a while, then go again.

So I guess the two things, cycling and headphones, can be mixed.

The only problem is like to listen to music with full size open headphones and big headphone tube amps and a proper dedicated dac and source.

Okay, that is indeed a big hurdle!

Looks like you had a grand time on the Vitus maiden voyage I'm with you on that weather break as well, my 17 year old seems to have absconded with my KHS 29'er so I've put a new hill climber together for myself when we get back out I've got the itch but sub freezing weather is holding me at bay

I adore that bike

Buy one. You streamer in front basket and tube amp back basket, helmet is your open headphone and you’re ready for Tour De France.

Buy one.

Naah, I'm good with my Cannondale bought a decade ago. Still goes strong

Got itchy trigger finger and wanting to go Carbon bars and seat post so bought some nice Bombshell bars and EC90 post, always dropping that weight

I’ve gotten a few rides in on my newest, a custom build from Ellis Cycles.
