Mine turned up too! Looks ace! Many thanks.

Has anyone got a link to these GoPro copies?

The stooge had gone by the time I got home! Oh well

Oh my.........cant purchase at work...if it hasnt gone by the time i get home i may end up with it!

Thats why im looking forward to them coming in so i can find out the details, but according to the cyclescheme website, it works as BenS says, but i wont actually own the bike for 4 years. Im starting to contemplate picking up just a stooge f&f along with wheels from Superstar and transferring b...

Hoping to get final agreeance with her who must be obeyed this weekend!

Just to throw a spanner in the works for you. You get tax relief for just the 1000 quid. There is nothing saying you have to limit yourself to that 1000 though. Just got myself a norco valence in the sale at 1600 which is super nice using a 1000 from the scheme. Throw a few more quid in if you fanc...

If you're on the gentle side of the fitness scale. . What a lovely expression! I thought the same thing! :-bd Many thanks for the advice everyone! I'll certainly be nipping in keep pedalling soon to have a look at both the stooge and the genesis. I really like the look of the stooge and by the soun...

Hey everyone, I have tried to do a quick search and whilst there have been multiple new bike threads, nothing seems to cover my question. My employer this year has changed their cycle to work scheme from the Halfords offering, to cyclescheme.co.uk. This means i have the option to purchase from vast ...

Does anyone know which is the nearest train station to the community centre? Just trying to work out if i can get there and back easy enough before i commit. :-bd Caersws. Although don't ride down the main road. There are some options of back lanes that are a far nicer ride. Cheers Composite, I sha...

Sounds like some numpty was hoping there was more than just badges in these envelopes! Wonder if anything would happen if you all complained as a group.

Normally not, as I like to keep it a mystery, but I'm sure I could make an exception and send something over. I have a longer (scenic) option and a shorter (poor weather/slacker) option to get people to the pub Makes sense, dont worry about sending anything over. Ive a long weekend at the end of No...

Is there likely to be a gpx for the route released beforehand? As always, ill be keen to try and ride some of this before signing up to the ride, wouldnt want to hold you all back!

Check out the bear bones shop! I got a kit which included everything i needed including a small meths bottle! It also had a guide for numpties included too, which i definitely needed

Well done everyone, fantastic effort all round it sounds like!

At least now i know how to tackle fences that get in the way! Maybe i can take gates the same!

Very impressive! Scenery looked amazing!

Im sure the height will be meters, so peaking at approx 525m. The additional bit may be Stu's ride home afterwards! He may not have started/finished where the masses are!

Not doing it myself but i am looking forward to the pics and tales of woe when they surface!

I have two. I have a Garmin 705 bike computer which has a gps. Not invested in a means to charge it mid ride yet. Worthwhile checking this out from Composite! http://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4324 i have his blog post saved in my favourites. I also have a Garmin Etrex...

Love it Si ... so much so that I've ordered a spare. If you look at on-line reviews they get a bit of a slating but in reality I wonder how much of that is to do with looks? I don't notice it's there most of the time, it weighs nowt and vents very well. I'll do a bit of a mini-review shortly. That ...

Looking at the site (not for the BB 200 but im looking to head to mid Wales soon) and i think they charge £15 as its a tenner to pitch up the tent, then £5 for the shower/toilet facilities. Could well be wrong though.

Great read Composite! Ive saved a copy to my hard drive too so ive got a reference point once i start planning out my new build next year!

This is the one ive got http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/30100718 ... 108&ff19=0

Works perfectly for my needs.

Cheers stu, im going to clean them up this morning, see if i can use something on the pads incase they have become contaminated and see how i go with them! Ill leave off buying more for now!

Started dismantling my brakes to have a closer look at them/clean them up, so i thought id post some pics. Discs look like they are ruined as they now seem heavily marked:- Front Disc: http://i1251.photobucket.com/albums/hh557/zoglug/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0016_zpsh08gtsbx.jpg http://i1251.photobucket...
