I’ve had before from Back Country Scot in Aviemore

I’ve crossed the Strath na Sealga twice

- first time barely ankle deep
- second time last year it was above the waist

Depth depends on the amount of rainfall
Can be crossed in most states

Yes - I’ve got a Singular Pegasus MK2
Love the ride and the weight.

The Mk1’s were prone to cracking
Spoke to Sam about this and he said they had too thin a tube. These were made by Nevi

Not sure where the Mk2 frames are made but i like it a lot.

Let me know

Must say I love the spearfish and it has a massive space in the triangle for two 1 ltr bottles

Mike.... do you have a framebag made for your Spearfish? Photos? Ta.

Mark - I think Karl’s got one of the salsa frame bags that is especially made for the job. Give him a shout for photos

I’m loving my new this year spearfish - I test rode Karl’s and it’s a very versatile frame

It happens - I lose my mojo when i don’t have a goal or ambition Once I have a target then i find it easier to get out and focus on the objective (it could just be training for an event) sometimes i like to be on my own but love the WRT/Winter events etc when I ride with Jay / Paramart and others an...

I used to hate choobless, i used to really struggle until Paramart helped me I always us gorilla tape now and put a few layers on the rim before putting the tyre on You need enough for the tyre to be tight on the rim before using the track pump Too much and you won’t get the tyre on, too little and ...

Knackered pedal just before getting to Culra bothy for the night.
next day Walked/freewheeled back to the car parked at Dalwhinnie.

Or try your own ground beans in a reusable tea pouch (both reusable or paper disposable options) I get mine from Amazon

That way you can have the coffee you like best

Yes please Dee & Stu, can i have an XL please

Thanks for the reminder Colin.
I’ve forgotten to take my Smidge with me and was quite shocked how many little buggers we’re attracted to me - I’m definately a tick magnet

It’s that time when out and about to check thoroughly for ticks

I’ve been twice this week and found some on my legs both times (one was attached )

Get checking!

Also look at BlueFlow wheels near Nottingham for Carbon rims.
Different widths available to suit

I’ve got the revelate harness - it works very well

I’ve got headsets, front and a rear hub on my sunday best Headset - never looked at it since install Front hub - never looked at it since install Both still operate like they came out the box Rear hub has had a couple of clean outs but apart from that faultless. Easy to strip and rebuild in the fiel...

Summat tells me the end of the BB pole isn't designed for flimsy tarp designs (although I have no clue if it is flimsy... I definitely know my knowhow is)... https://i.imgur.com/SORom74.jpg :smile: These work great on the end of the poles https://www.diy.com/departments/verve-green-cane-protection-...

Creaky seatpost on today’s ride so stripped, cleaned and regreased all the bits.

Surprised me when i pulled the seatpost out the frame. I thought it was well lubed, but it had dried out

Test ride tomorrow

oh ....
And other than that I swapped my sus forks out on the hard tail and put my carbon forks in
Just fancy a change as I have the bouncer now and wanted to have rigid for a bit of variety

Blimey, GRX hasn't been out for that long and you've already got it rusty and worn :-bd 🤣 Mostly that's just the colour of the dust from the last long ride I did into The Brecks. That chain had done 5,314.3 km, so I'm still slightly surprised I didn't have to replace the cassette... Thats some good...

Mine failed the state way Steve
I’ve got a Apidura Race on now (just a flap)
Liking it a lot

Tonto - I’ve PM’d you
Mart

first priority i think is to try the width of the C15
then i can think more about carved/solid

Anyone got a Cambium C15 they could lend me to try out? Either carved or solid doesn’t matter
I’m using a C17 at the moment and wondered if slightly narrower would suit better
