Just wondering if anyone had any the would be willing to exchange for cash? I has some previously (woodchipper 2 in 46cm) and sold them for Jones bars, didn't like the Jones bar! So, sold the jones bars (on here) and now want to go back to "off-road drops". Anyway, to save the planet, I wo...

I don't know about Chavs being a problem so much (yes I have met plenty in my time in the bothies) but what I find increasingly annoying is the amount of people who think the sole reason a bothy exists is to have the biggest fire imaginable and get absolutely pissed out of your mind. Don't get me wr...

Alas, I too am in Norway that weekend

Denmark - Autumn is coming fast now.

Bike do go missing in Mid Wales.. but you kind of get the feeling that its a "good" or "bad" place to leave your bike unattended. So far I have been quite lucky with only one complete bike theft (in Tywyn) which was locked with much thicker cable lock than any seen on this thread...

I like my 29er Inbred BUT as the other posters have said, the ONLY problem is its rear tyre clearance not being up to more fashionable sizes. I can get a 2.2 in there but that as big as it gets. You have too look at it for what it is (and has always been) a CHEAP steel bike frame, that is generally ...

Glyn Tecwyn Uchaf - this is an amazing spot - best checkpoint on the board and was the main reason I endured the awful weather that afternoon to get to it

Was a nice spot - in the rain - and wind - completely on my own too - kind of remote feeling.

This picture kind of sums up day 2 of this years event...

Just like my thanks too.... and Dee; the lemon drizzle cake was the best.

All you need to know here: http://cycle.travel/advice/cycling_by_train Ariva are a nightmare on the Cardiff to Crew/Manchester route (Via Hereford, Church Stretton, Shrewsbury etc) as its only got space for 2 bikes, always busy and the guards enforce the on-booking = no travel rule. Booking by phone...

Snowing.... nice!

Winter sleeping bag required?

Superglue.... lots of uses but mainly for tyre wall splits.

Too slow... but second dibs

Nice to know as all the images I have seen (and the OS mean high water mark) suggests you run out of sand and hit boulders for much of the high tide range.

Is there anywhere near the beach you can cycle heading north after Aberdyfi, or am I best sticking to the A493? Three options: 1. Ride along the beach... as long as its not at anytime between 14:00 and 15:30 as the tides in... 2. Ride alone the "naughty path" - through the golf course, an...

Thanks for the route... I know around Shell Island is off limits to riding (due to ground nesting birds at this time of year)....

More things to think about...

Thanks.

right... Having spent most of the night fretting about this (and getting the latest aerial photographs of the coastline from the Ordnance Servery) it would appear the tide goes all the way to the seawall and there sections that will be unride-able (where the railway "sticks out" into the s...

As the WRT can* go along the beach - the tide being in at 14:35hrs on Saturday going to be an issue? I don't know the beach by the golf course so do not know how much beach is likely to be left exposed at high tide. And, I really do not want to have to ride along the footpath by the side of the golf...

Scotland... but drive at Night. Not only are the M roads less busy, and you don't miss out on the riding time per se (as you just get out at other end around lunchtime and ride off into the hills). I tend to leave Friday night (just after the rush hours starts to die off) and can be in Avimore by 13...
