The pickled egg (and other bar snacks) thread
https://www.instagram.com/p/C6N3QLUIrZv/?igsh=cWJmMGt0cmx3aWl0 I love crisps, but one gets to a certain time of life and realises they're not the healthiest of sports nutrition :cry: Then one evening pickled eggs entered my world: low in saturated fat, high in protein, it seems the perfect accompan...

Cheers Sean .
I considered it could be a swing bridge, that no longer swings. Or they could have left it on my side if the brook
Or made it into a ramp

Re: Is this 'bikepacking'?
We're not destroying, maaan... we're creating...uncool and unmonetisable names for "having a kip outdoors between bike rides" (that will instantly become cool because of their nebulousity :geek: ). But I like JamesO's "camping sportives": it's rooted in chummy reality, rather tha...

Re: Travelling across Europe quickly - how?
Prefer smallish cars... The ferry from Italy is another good one - it would make yhe journey far more interesting. Caterham 7 Nothing smaller or greener (if you buy a green one :wink: ).

Re: packable fleece?
I had a minor revelation last November when cycling in The Lakes: my techno-baselayer top became damp and clammy, so I removed it and spent the rest of the weekend wearing the fleece direct to skin and was warm & comfortable all weekend :-bd. Back home (after a bit of rummaging in the cupboards)...

13/14 April: Berwyns from Chirk/Gobowen Railway Station
Evening All, I'm a bit more prepared for April BaM than I was for March. My general plan is to arrive at Chirk or Gobowen Station about 10:45 Saturday morning then pedal westwards, past the Wayfarer memorial, to Corwen or Cynwyd for dinner & bivi (both villages have a pub and a shop). Sunday: so...
