I wouldn't call anyone a ponce for asking the colour of a saddle... Tart, maybe, but not ponce :D It's the 'slate' dark grey. Looks pretty good on my black Cotic frame, but sadly only works for me in an aesthetic sense, not an ergonomic one. (Slightly shonky phone pic, but it gives you an idea!) IMG...

Couple of other bits to go while I'm sorting out:

Wingnut Hyper 2.5 pack - Sold

Brooks Cambium C15 saddle - Sold

That might work - I'm in Horsforth, Chew, can meet or drop off if needs be.
I'll check what I've got in the way of boxes and have a measure up Stu.

Edited first post with better image links and descriptions!

Just realised, looking closer at these, there's no way to run a front mech?

I'm definitely oot then. (Not that I was ever really 'in' in the first place...)

How long are the Middleburn cranks and would you be interested in selling just the arms? Hiya Chris They're 175s, and I'd think about selling arms and the Uno ring together if that would work? Don't really want to separate more than that as I think it'd be harder to sell the Uno ring on its own if ...

Edited to point link to the right folder,sorry to anyone that looked and just got one image, my bad!

I shared a room with him in Alaska last year. He snores.

All of these variants - Trek, On-One, Shand etc - all look a bit 'meh' to me.

A bit of the Milky Way over North Wales at the weekend (though I was sleeping in a log cabin rather than a bivvy...)

Does this mean I'm no longer allowed to ride on gravel in either a) my Endura baggies or b) my bib tights? Damnit...

Lael rules : ) was thinking it was only time before a woman proved that the longer the race the more even it gets between the sexes. Great thing for cycling in general I think. Indeed. There's also Lee Craigie's 3rd place in the HT550 and in fell running Jasmin Paris has done the fourth fastest win...

That's Cadair Idris, isn't it?

Both from up in the south Lakes at the weekend on one of the Adventure X series events - Sunset from How Barrow and the bluebell woods on the eastern shore of Coniston Water

I was warm and a little damp kayaking on the Tryweryn and the Dee on Sat and Sun then warm and dry around a nice cosy camp fire and then in my tent both nights. I'm now warm and very damp sitting in a lovely hot bath at home. Might go for a ride on the CX tomorrow if I'm feeling enthusiastic.

I can see the problem. You've pitched it upside-down...

I binned both a Numo and a POE Ether, very similar mats, both massive delamination problems - what looked like hundreds of tiny pin-prick holes when dunked in the bath. Back to Thermarest type mats and probably staying that way.

If he doesn't want it, could you drop me some pics please?

Was over in the North of the Welshness staying at Tremadog with a bunch of kayaking mates, aiming to paddle, bike and take pics. Rode Llandegla red and black in blazing sunshine on the way over on Friday, took pics of the others paddling in the rain at the Tryweryn on Saturday then all the rivers we...

I'll take one please Steve - have one that swaps between two bikes, buying a second would probably be a good idea!

PM me payment details and I'll sort it out ASAP.

Cheers!

Go on then, I'll nab that off you. Have the 200 but need something a wee bit bigger for weekends where the missus is with me.

PM me with details and we'll sort it out. Cheers!

Still for sale, open to offers. £350-ish?

Blazing Saddles.

Apart from a bike-related pun, naff-all to do with riding, but makes me laugh a lot. Also, M*A*S*H.

No worries Ray!

Ha! No. It was late and I'd had a beer...

Forks now sold, brakes still available.
