Really enjoying the E26, but the fenders are noisy

Really enjoying the E26, but the fenders are noisy

I’ve been riding the E26 lately and I have to say, I really enjoy cruising around with it.

The big wheels make it feel very stable and comfortable, and the brakes give me a lot of confidence. It’s also a really good-looking bike, the yellow and black color combo is hard to miss and definitely gets a lot of attention.

The fenders they look great and they feel very strong, but because of the material they are also quite noisy when riding, especially on rougher roads or small bumps.

They seem resistant, so I don’t think they’re bad quality, just a bit too loud for my taste.

Has anyone changed the E26 fenders for quieter ones? Did it make a noticeable difference?

Found a hidden trail by the river with the M20

Went out with the M20 today and decided to take a mountain path I had never tried before.

At first it looked like a normal dirt road, but little by little it started fading away until it became a narrow trail full of reeds, right next to the river.

The whole ride felt amazing, the sound of the water running, birds flying around me, and that feeling of discovering a place you didn’t even know was there.

The best surprise came at the end: a small stone crossing that let me get across the river without getting more than my ankles wet.

The water was freezing cold from the mountain, but with this heat it actually felt perfect.

I’m definitely doing this route again tomorrow.

40°C, dirt trails and an ice-cold rive

Had an awesome ride today with the M20.

I crossed a mountain to reach the next village, with plenty of climbs and descents along the way. After around 10 km of dirt trails, I finally got a nice break on smooth downhill asphalt heading towards the river.

The thermometer was showing **40°C**, so the ice-cold river water felt more than deserved.

Honestly, this is the kind of ride that makes summer worth it: heat, dust, trails, views… and ending it with a proper swim.

Tomorrow I might have to do it again.

40 km, an ice cream, and now the river is calling my name

Took the M20 out today and crossed the mountain on a 40 km round trip, with plenty of climbs and descents along the way.

The weather was amazing, maybe a little too amazing... it was hot!

Luckily I stopped in a nearby village and treated myself to an ice cream before heading back. Best decision of the day.

By the time I got home, all I could think about was doing it again tomorrow. Next time I'm bringing my swimsuit because the river I passed looked way too tempting.

Summer rides are definitely here!
