April ticked off for BigDummySteve and I courtesy of a late call and a free weekend. A two day out and back jaunt in the Black Mountains, a route cobbled together and the rest made up as we went. Saturday, good weather if a bit nippy and breezy on the hills. Cracking views, steep hills. This was the...

Well, back to square one here. March bivvy done on Cannock Chase with Reg, MaM and the others. A really good couple of days riding, not been there for a looooong time so effectively all new to me. Second E-bike BaM but the first one with company and charging up en-route. This was of course the only ...

Nice one Nick!

like most of us, I'd rather see folk riding than not

I'll have to factor in more cafe time

Whether folks like them or not, they're bloody good fun!

I'm near Stratford upon Avon, happy to box up for collection or I can post as well.

No, this still for sale.

Interested in the surly ogre if it still for sale?

It surely is still for sale! Do you need any more info or pics?

Pm sent re phone

Al, nothing’s come through

Rich, are you assuming these are picked up from your home? Interested in that Brompton, are you ever down further towards London?

Ben, I am occasionally down there with work, but it's a bit sporadic.

Do you need any more detailed pics or information? Give me a shout if so.

I'll be poppung in to see Pickers within the next few weeks so could bring a bike back to the Thame area (and I work in London so could aways bri g it in by train)

Many thanks Nick - very kind of you. Looking forward to meeting, must set a date!

I need the space, I don't really need the range of bikes now that I've built up over recent years. This is a list of the bikes that are currently for sale - if you would like more details or pictures please shout up here. Some of the bikes will appeal to folks here, some likely won't.

Pete, no probs, drop me a pm and we can sort it out.

I've bought a s/h Iphone 7 so my SE is now surplus to requirements. It's around 3 years old but holds charge well. It's a 64Gb model in black, unlocked and in mostly very good condition. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4882/39760475073_0c45c383fc_c.jpg iPhone SE 64Gb by Richard Picton - Flickr2BBcode...

Very nearly back to pre-Xmas levels, a good thing.

I've one of these... A bit unfashionable in these parts maybe but I've been pretty chuffed with it for my purposes. Got to say it's been faultless. I have a set of Ioffer UK OS Maps that went straight on without issue, just needed a couple of goes to get them in the right folder. Nav is much like th...

I'd got down to 13st 6 lbs pre Xmas so emptying that cupboard has taken its toll.
The target is to hit 170 lbs / 77kgs, let's see how we go

That might've been the first BBB E-Bike BaM..... I'm sure I'll be corrected if someone else beat me to it. December done, just in before the deadline. A short ride out via local lanes and bridleways, 25 flat slow miles so no range anxiety. A lovely evening for a ride, roads absolutely empty, tempera...
