Someone's getting a bargain, especially with those upgrades. Love mine, out of curiosity, why are you letting yours go?

At that price, it's a steal. Problem for me is, the divorce it would cause is more expensive. Grr, looking on with envy.

I’ve got the rear harness and the front harness, rock solid kit. Looks like I’ll need to source elsewhere for an 8l dry bag for the rear harness. For those interested, don’t hesitate, it’s great kit.

Stu, will you be getting any of the saddle pack harness dry bags? If so, please let me know, if possible. They're great bits of kit, I got a handlebar and seat pack harness from you. If not, might need to get my mum to get me some of their stuff, she's Czech and frequently goes back to the motherland.

Headed out later than planned on Saturday afternoon, got back mid Sunday afternoon. For a change I decided to record this ride via the medium of YouTube Shorts, so if you have trouble sleeping, or are just a sucker for punishment, you can watch them all here →https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlS0...

I’m always hungry. My metabolism is far faster than me on my bike. Some great suggestions, many thanks!

Hi all, I'm after recommendations for a new pair of shorts. As a preface, I don't wear bibs or padded shorts, feels like I'm wearing a nappy. My endura hummvee 2 shorts, which have lasted nearly 10 years, are starting to look a little worse for wear, though have served me well. Very hard wearing and...

Thanks Boab and Blackhound, a cracking read. Part of the route is on my doorstep so I'll have to check it out. If it's not too much bother I might ask a bit about the route in the future. Cheers.

It was then back onto some tarmac for a bit after we'd crossed the A17, which was nice, as we could've just continued along the dyke. We did have to rejoin it eventually though, and I was pleasantly surprised to see some double track, but it only lasted about hundred metres, before it was back to t...

A new to me OEX sleep mat, cheers Al.

Payment sent.

I've pm'd you.

Hi, if the mats still available I'd be interested. Going on a trip in the summer with my eldest and he needs a mat.

I really like the Acepac ones you pick up from this very site. Rock solid and very reasonable price.

If Boab doesn't take it, I'd be very interested.

A Polaris enduro jacket. They emailed me to let me know they didn't have any vapours left. Seems pretty good, looking forward to testing it out on a little spin tomorrow. Cheers for the heads up.

When did you order from them? I've not received my order or a refund yet, expecting the same as you unfortunately.

I went for my first ride in months, due to ill health, I'd forgotten how brutal the Fens winds can be. A long stretch of bridleway had been closed off so found myself cycling without really having any fixed destination in mind and ended up in parts I've never been, always fun. Knackered but happy af...

Yeah, that's my thinking too.

Do you think this would suit chillier autumnal rides

It has a fleece lining so is pretty warm. I bought mine for the colder months.

Cheers. Judging by some replies about sizing I might need to opt for the small, I'm 36 inch chest and 30 inch waist. Or do you you think I should opt for medium?

Do you think this would suit chillier autumnal rides or would the Enduro be a better bet?

A pair of nukeproof flat pedals, as recommended by many on here. Not ridden flats for years, hopi g to go out for an early morning spin tomorrow, if I can remember how to thread pedals, probably whilst hungover.

Very interesting video, cheers. How much better is that alpacka by way of comparison?

Great video and footage. That last fall looked pretty nasty.
