Did'nt read every post, but have you or do you have your shoes to tight it has been known. if its already been suggested then serves me right. I only say it as i suffered a good few years ago for some reason i felt i needed to have them super tight.

Lycra 99% of the time & Endura FS260 Pro shorts work well on my gooch, have a pair of Endura baggies which are comfy too but only wear them now and again (worn pad & need replacing really). Myself personally I go for a good thick pad everytime & being comfortable is the main priority hen...

Looks a great jersey, may have to have one of each

I'm using the sixmoon copy at the moment and coming in at 740g I think and 75 english pounds ish, only used once in good weather up to now this year but the previous tent was similar just a different design and worked well in all kinds of crap rainy windy weather. For the money they aint bad tbh lig...

Had the same DD superlight to start with but the dog chewed the corner only last week on a overnighter in the garden :cry: , Anyway after a look around and considering an alternative I ended up just ordering another one. Still have the old one to trim down and make something out of it, maybe a small...

surely most gravel riders are roadies who can't quite bring themselves to being seen on a mountain bike?

Exactly my thoughts

Local rides consist of 1 tube (tubeless) 2 x C02's, multitool and 2 levers I check my pads every few rides anyway and whip em out and clean up takes seconds to do, but as for multiday rides I'd carry a spare set of pads for sure or replace with a new set before the trip, no real mither to swap out a...

I got bored with my original concrete floor in my garage after painting it several times so decided one day to go buy tiles and tile it up, looks the part tbh. get the kids to hoover & mop occasionally to earn their pocket money
To much sub standard in there now to have small sofa, kettle etc

I'm not sure it fits all your requirements, but when I was looking last year, the Brother Big Bro looked good. I bought myself a Brother Big Bro not so long ago feels brilliant to ride lighter than expected tbh takes on the local terrian with ease, which is mainly around the clwydians/llandegla etc...

Hunt getting a lot of fans I like hope/stans but haven’t tried many others https://www.huntbikewheels.com/products/hunt-xcwide-mtb-wheelset?variant=12211051233357 I have these fitted on my Big Bro. Good build quality, look good and at £329 which is great compared to some other manufacturers and lig...

I’m lusting after the free stuff, like watching the sun go down in the hills https://singlespeedsimon.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/June.jpg?w=1168 Or riding through amazing valleys https://singlespeedsimon.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/May.jpg?w=1168 Looking over from Moel Fenlli, great shot mate

Great little film that one, dropped on some good company too by the looks

Cheers chaps, any other recommendations on tarps will be appreciated

Anyone used or have one they can comment on, reviews look good for the price and the size seems to be spot on for a solo outing. Weight wise coming in around the same as the DD superlight but think it comes without pegs etc. Dog chewed the corner of my DD superlight after a back garden overnighter t...

No real Friday cheer this week as on nights & I've still got Saturday/Sunday to do yet

Copy of Singletrack and my Festive500 badge, Oh and a new pump after losing my old one last week

Never knew such a thing exsisted, thanks for sharing

Having two gravel bikes I thought they were the mutts nuts for off-road and gravel type stuff However, I have since bought a specialized epic comp carbon Holy sh!t that thing is fast. Okay, not as quick on the road, but way quicker than the gravel bikes off-road. Maybe I’ve been wrong, maybe gravel...

First I heard of this tile collecting was my first ride on the WRT last year and Richard G was shooting off to collect a tile and i was like WTF is that all about, but seems a great idea to ride new pastures. I've still not committed to Veloveiwer to get going yet tho but may do

Is Strava still completely useless for doing off road routes? As for how I've been doing it. Acetate on my screen (with a grid) then using GPSies at the appropriate zoom level. Old skool tech! lol I don't actually know of any mapping sites (aside from the Strava addon mentioned above) that will sho...
