Ooh I like that a lot.
It looks very purposeful.
Mean and Moody.
Wish I had the knees for singlespeed.

Chinese special.
Solar x2/magicshine etc or similar clone
Available from ebay or direct from somewhere like light malls.com

Find one you like the look of and google it for reviews.
Uk suppliers provide peace of mind for a small increase in price.

Mtbbatteries.co.uk is one example.
Tk.

Shimano deore.

Hi Today I booked myself in with vankru cycles in southampton for a bikefitting session in early December. I get foot pain/lower back pain and shoulder pain on long (6 hours plus) rides. Anyone else ever been for a bikefitting? What sort of position do you favour for long rides-sit up and beg/long a...

Have one on each of my bikes.
If you use the above site, be sure to select
The correct size. 1 1/8 inch

Had some smart sams on my old 29er.
They weren't bad at all.
Cheap too at the time,from on one.

what do you mean we are sleeping here tonight?

So what you're saying is yes Trystan, I think you really should buy the Surly ECR. It will easily last you a lifetime..... Hmm. Am sure that I would still have one or two of the bikes I used to own 20 years ago if they hadn't been liberated by scum sucking weasels. Then again I broke my last "k...

ah flaps!
been checking that page all day at work.
oh well.

Don't even talk to me about cycling shoes. I have the most retarded Hobbit feet. size 9 length size 99 width and the right one always hurts no matter what. Um..... I had some Lake ones once that were quite nice. Sidi cater for just about any size. Got some shimano (yes I saw what you wrote) m088 45 ...

Hi so have ridden the SDW. Does anyone have any route reccomendations? Maybe you know of a good circular route off the SDW? I have heard that there are a few epic loops in the Worthing area.......? Can anyone reccomend the North Downs? How does it compare to the south downs? Has anyone ridden the Do...

Well
I will be getting some more miles in.
Riding in the bontrager 24/12 at the end of the month and am not fit enough really.
Cant seem to get out of bimble mode.

Hmm, like the sound of the Holster as a cheaper alternative to a mountain feed bag......

Maybe its a double ended drybag?.....

I rode half of it on sat the 22nd. Have also ridden 8/10ths of it in one go. Have never ridden all of it at once. The chap who I was riding with this saturday was was so impressed with the route that he wants us to ride the whole thing in about 3wks time. I struggled with 50 miles of it! Gotta get s...

Stumbled across this method of making coffee at the weekend.
My mind was momentarily blown.
Has anyone tried this?

Comfy, sturdy bike picked up half price on ebay. Yay.
The grit and poo of my winter commuter route has eaten one drivetrain though not my rims as it has discbrakes.

ah...............um......
nor me. Only ever bivvied with a mate or the dog.
have not done it solo yet.
I did sleep in the garden in my hammock on my own.
I'm guessing that doesnt count?
Am planning on doing a solo or two this summer but have an overactive imagination.
did you hear that?

Have alpkit gamma.
It lives on me helmet all year long.
Heh.
Handy in the summer with its bobby dodger rear light.

Unless you are going to be using them as fuel, and consuming them every hour or so I would probably just rely on normal food and take a couple of gels for emergencies-bonking etc. I really like the Torq rhubarb and custard. It is a bit like swallowing someone else's snot though....... Energy bars ho...

Hi
I know some of you are gearing up to ride the wrt.
I fully intend to enter next year....

What I would like to know is, are any of you doing the bontrager24/12?
Just curious to know about any fueling/riding tips etc.
I will be riding the 12hour solo.

I live close to the foot of a spur off the south downs way. The SDW is about 5 miles away. Across the Road is nutbourne marsh, replete with cheeky camp spots cut off by high tide. (although coughing badgers scuttling across the flints in the night give me the fear). mixture of terrain on my commuter...

ooh i like the gubbins for the mytimug.
I could do with one of those for er...my mytimug.
wherever could I get those bits and bobs?.....
Is that a stove as well?
