Don't wait for me, if you can get it gone that's fine. I obviously need to research a little more so I'm honestly OK if it goes. :)

Re: Capital Trail?

The start is in Portobello so you can drive there missing out Embra. We're heading the capital trail next week - what's Embra - and should I really avoid it? Plenty of parking near the start point. Would you just dump it somewhere around here? https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48673607671_2307dcf...

Re: Size up, or down?

always use the size down as you can make a smaller bike bigger, but not a bigger bike smaller. May have worked in the past but less so now? I guess it depends how far you look into it, I still swear by the rule at 6ft 1. Larges in most brands will or can go to 6.1 and XL starts at 6.1. I'm 6ft one ...
