WNT:primaloft jacket for sewing project

Hi
Has anyone got a large or extra large primaloft jacket with hood to sell?
Holes, snags, broken zips not a problem as I’ll be canabolising for a sewing project. Could be that jacket lurking in the back of the wardrobe, that could be repaired ?
Thanks

Re: For the runners amongst us.

Great advice from Greg! If you’re urban based, then find parks, commons, tow paths etc to get some off road running in to condition your ankles, knees and hips. Cross country, tracks and trails will then lead you to fells and mountains. Fitness, skills and preparedness become more important as you p...

Small mtb/hybrid wanted

Hi. I’m looking out for a small bike (16 inch frame at most)to get my sister out on lanes and forest tracks.

Retro- V brakes, suspension fork, 26 inch wheels would do the job. Disc brakes & larger wheels also considered!

Anything you got lurking at the back of the shed?!

Re: WANTED: Decrepit Rear derailleur, 9 or 10 speed

Hi restless
I took it off my Kona Explosif 15 years ago. It worked fine then. The return spring feels tight and strong.

If you pay postage you can have it. A small donation to air ambulance would be a nice touch.

Looks like I’ve touched a raw nerve there bringing up the D Valley. Please share your thoughts...

Stu
Would also be interested in knowing what your alternative is. It’s not an area I know too well, but got down there on my first WRT.
