OS Mapping now on cycle.travel

This maybe of interest https://cycle.travel/news/cycle_travel_now_has_ordnance_survey_maps I believe that cycle.travel uses a more sophisticated algorithm than Google maps etc to identify quiet roads. Maybe not as useful for off-road routing, but my go-to for getting between two places on tarmac.

Re: Mix & match. Cam-ano gears

An interesting take on Shim- ergo Before Shimano started to hide cables under handlebar tape on their cheaper shifters I ran a lot of mixed set ups - big Shimano cassettes and Shimano mtd rear mechs with Campag shifters and various tweaked chainsets to get the hill gears that I needed My gut feeling...

Just seen this, and the light / battery / usb cable is now £12 They are claiming 4800mAh from a pack that contains 2x 18650 batteries.

Wheelset WTB STi19 TCS QR Front and Rear Now £75

Do need these gone, so reduced to £75 Long story short, Mango bikes were selling the rims only at a good price that I ordered, but they made an error and did not have the hole drilling I needed and sent the wrong ones. To compensate they sent me these for £85, so happy to pass them on now for £75. N...
