Re: Build your own bike building course

Yes & Yes.

Was quite a while ago now. 26" wheel Singlespeed frame, now living in the loft.

Stayer https://www.stayercycles.com/product/framebuilding-101 are looking like they're a good option.

Feeling the itch for a change so what to replace the El Mariachi? - 29'er - more modern geo - Steel (Ti's generally out of budget) - Tidy sliding dropout or EBB - will mostly be run Singlespeed - Up to 120mm fork friendly - may run it rigid Would love to build a new frame but that's a project to man...

You'd probably be better off with this kit - https://www.easycomposites.co.uk/fishing-pole-repair-kit If the loss of material is mid crown area, I'd look to locally patch fill that then over wrap bandage style with some strips of the carbon. Then wind over the top the Shrink Tape to consolidate - pu...

Re: new tent for a tall wide person ?

I'm liking my OEX Pantha II Ultralite at the moment tonnes of space for the weight/cost balance.
Thought I' would probably have got a Durston X-Dome if they'd been available then superlight for a similar cost.

Re: Today's Run

Saturday was spent shuffling around the Purbecks on the inaugural Wessex Orienteering Club's Purbeck Hill Challenge. Went with the Medium, Technical option (30km, 550m climbing). They gave us 'all checkpoints' maps, which we had to mark up with the route for our category. Starting at Knowle Beach, S...

@dave, obviously depends on your budget, but my current kit choices are: Head Torch - seems to work pretty well for night orienteering. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Petzl-NAO-RL-E105AA00-Black/dp/B0B2X4YFLP/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3EQG94FG47YRE&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Vf3Mp8jUZ11U56953LDcEQB9XKbw8wPlgj_LMaswEGOAnw...
