Started an instagram where I do a manual everyday. I’ve done it 10 days so far, and it’s like riding a bike. Those several thousand hours spent alone in parking lots from 14-21 years old riding flatland wasn’t wasted time then, and it’s helped me get active again.
Right now I have a mostly stock 26” Eastern, but thinking about getting a 24” Laird Frame as a reward if I stick to this manual everyday project for 6 months.
44/yo started riding again 2 weeks ago.

The first day, I couldn’t even get 10 feet. Now I’m at a couple hundred feet (slight downhill) working up to being able to lock in and do 450 feet consistently (10 feet for every year I’ve been alive.)
I’m up there with you…..and I cannot tell you how many times I have had some weird dream of me manualling some long ass distance…..so awesome lol.
Thanks for letting us all know
I’m 39 and haven’t rode in 18 years time to check out dans comp
