I use an old phone with komoot, my route saved for offline use and 3 battery's. My current phone I use if I need online info about the route if I get lost.

They even try to make the pissing rain something exciting and adventuresome. I am from Scotland, its not. Instead of racing like a warrior they could try fighting midges like a warrior, though i wouldn't call the armour ultralight. As far as recovering like a king, most Scottish kings ended up face ...

Cumulus 350 here which i love, i find it perfect for 3 seasons

Being a member of AA and having had no booze for 24 years, giving up alcohol gave me a brand new life which would definately not have happened had i kept on drinking. I drank to deal with life, when i stopped, life got worse so i started again. For me i needed help to learn to live with out alcohol,...

Ive heard a 10 speed chainset would work, there more readily available, anyone know if this is true enough ?

I am finding it impossible to buy a SHIMANO GRX 600 DOUBLE CHAINSET 11 speed 36/40 172.5. Are there any more available alternatives that would do the job with an 11 40 rear an ultegra gs rear deralliuer and whatever front deralliuer it needs, as i've still to buy a front. Even Amazon is out of stock...

I didn't wash my hair for 3 months. After 2 months it got very shiney and sleek as the natural oils came back. Unfortunately when it rained I smelled like a wet dog.

Thanks for all the advice. Im going with the 11 40 on the back option as the rest of my set up won't need upgraded. My chain is 118 link and according to online chain length calculator it should be ok as well. Maybe in the future i will upgrade to full grx one part at a time. Is it a new chain? If ...

Just bought an Outdoor Research balaclava for £10 and noticed they have a pretty good clearance sale.

Just to say the titanium mug I bought is fantastic and fits perfectly in my frame bag.

So basically the advice is cover your electricals in beer and curry and your good to go.

My partner bought me an electric horn style thing in the name of safety. The first review I read about it contained a warning that using it could lead to violent altercations with other road users as the reviewer experienced. I pressed the button on the horn and even got angry with my self. It was l...

I use my old mobile phone as I only use komoot routes on offline mode and 3 spare phone batteries, being an old phone the batteries are cheap. I only need it to connect to my home network when adding routes as it doesn't have its own Internet. My normal phone I will use in emergencies if I get lost ...

My Tomshoo, "Amazon special" 750ml titanium mug fits in an Acepak fat bottle stem bag but it's a bit of a tight squeeze.

Looking for a mount to fit my front light to my fork as no room on handlebars. I have rack mounts on the forks that can be used. Or are there better places like helmet mounts ?. What light?
