Hi Rich, how much space is there in this in terms of length? Will I fit in it at 6’4” ish?

Cheers

Happy birthday Stu!

I got a wiz viz bar bag for xmas and it is great for day rides. Nice and stable and big enough for a jacket, tools and a few snacks!

Payment received and now sold
Thanks Barney

I’m selling my Jones loop riser bar as I have gone back to a Stooge bar instead. 710mm width and good condition, only used on my ss bike. After £65 posted, or a bit less collected from Sheffield/Peak.

Hi, I have a pair of Hayes cx cable disc calipers and 2 spare pairs of pads, still packaged. Will sell for £20 posted if of any interest. In full working condition.
Thanks

I love Fugazi (and Minor Threat). One of the best gigs I’ve ever been to was Fugazi in Wolverhampton’s Wulfrun Hall

Mine is a 7mesh freeflow jacket. Part lined with polartec alpha, it strikes a really good balance between warmth on cold days without being too hot. Bought at a good reduction, it has become my favourite cold weather jacket.

Long Dale/Gratton Dale has been a shitfest every time I have been down it, regardless of the season!
I agree that wet weather makes chunks of the White Peak section almost unrideable. A frosty winter spell would be nice, providing it wasn’t as icy as the weekend!

7mesh do a pair with removable bib straps. Good if you can get them in a sale!

Done!

Enjoyed that Mike, ta for posting.
...don’t know what the tent is either though I’m afraid!

Hi, I’ve got a surly sunrise I’m not using-I swapped it out for a stooge bar. It has only been lightly used, so how about £50 posted-or a bit less if you are anywhere near the peak and want to collect it?

Hi Ton, I’ve sent you a PM as I’m interested in the whole lot if still available?

Hi Ton,
If Mike has taken the cassette and chain, I’d be interested in the chainset if still available.

Hi, I’ve got a pair of hayes cx mechanical calipers and two spare sets of pads. Happy to sell for £25 posted. Let me know if these are of any interest.

Hi, I’m interested in the halo carbon wheel. What kind of hub does it have? What about the adaptors? 15x100, or is it boost? Is it a 29er or 27.5? I couldn’t read the side of the tyre in the photo.
Thanks

Outer Cairngorm Loop and then Glen Tilt finish as others have said would get my vote.
The northern loop of the 550 is great, but will involve a lot of pushing with the ground as wet as it is (it involves a fair bit of pushing when dry to be fair!)

Hi Andy, that is similar to the speed that we managed!

Good luck everybody. I did the section from Kielder to Kirk Yetholm on Wed night/Thurs morning. The ground up on the border ridge was very wet and slow going. Hopefully it will dry out a bit before people reach it on Sunday.

I’ve also registered on the Montanas website.
Thanks

Thanks Duncan/Chew. I’m keen to avoid too much heat, but equally don’t want to end up carrying a huge amount of extra clothing/warmer bag etc in order to keep warm. Typical April temps sound ideal, I’ll keep an eye on the forecast and do a bit more research. September sounds good, but I am tied to s...

Thanks Duncan, that is really useful. What would be a usual daytime and nighttime temp in the area in early April?

Hi Duncan, thanks for the tip re the weather. Easter is early April I think next year, so we had wondered about the temperatures-I guess it gets pretty cold away from the coast, especially at night. I’ll do a bit more research and see.

Hi Duncan, I’m planning on (hopefully) riding this next Easter. I’ve registered my interest on the montanas vacias website for an A3 and A2 version.
Thanks
Mark
