Re: GB Duro Entries open
We'll see - the entry questionnaire still required you to have an instagram account, even though it doesn't get used for tracking. So I just put a gobbildigook name in and I think I got some of the questions wrong... That's a hard no from me then. Shouldn't have to tell someone why they shouldn't b...

Re: Tubeless question
Thanks for this. Weird to hear about your experiences of the Cinturato M as they're marketed as a multi-surface fit-and-forget tyre! :lol: That's more a reflection on my poor show bike handling skillz than the tyre... π I really rate them, especially as when matched with the Orange Seal Endurance, ...

Re: Tubeless question
Hello all. I am considering changing.over to tubeless and had a query regarding my rims which are WTB ST I23 TCS tubeless ready. Does anyone know if these have tubeless valves fitted, or do I have to buy them separately? As far as I know they are already taped. Can anyone recommend suitable valves ...

Re: Bivvy a Month 2024
Here's one for the BaM lawyers... Was pondering last night, as I'm about to go on call on Wednesday and am feeling a bit rubbish; it'll be last chance saloon when I get off. Can I ride my bike on the rollers, pitch the tent outside my garden, on someone else's land (paddocks), then ride my bike on t...

Re: What are you reading now?
Interested to hear what you make of the coffee books. I've flicked through The World Atlas of Coffee in a couple of (clearly the better sort of :wink: ) coffee shops, and it was interesting, but perhaps not enough for me to go and seek out a copy. I like the sound of the other two though. I'm glad ...

Hopefully some were out last night.

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
Went on a road trip with daughter yesterday to get her a new pair of ice skates. Thankfully the Β£480 ones (π²!!!), that didn't even come with blades (another Β£150 - 180) were too uncomfortable. Got my skates sharpened, so we're off to the rink a mo' to try them out. Evens that we're both on our arses...

Re: Bivvy a Month 2024
For a change, I know exactly where that is, having cycled passed it on a few occasions now. It's always looked a bit too busy to pitch up at, but just where you hang a right to head back to the visitor centre, and tap, I've thought about going straight on, and kipping there, on the edge. :smile: Yo...

Not long back from the ice rink, where I had an accidental "sit down". My left wrist is now encased in tubigrip and I'll be taking all the drugs before going to bed. Was planning on a longish MTB ride tomorrow, not sure I'll be able to hold the bars with the left hand. π Time to go and buy...

This is a link to an article, not a question I need answered...
Just thought it might be of interest to those of us who ride partially to help control the amount of food going in.
How far do you need to ride to lose 1kg of fat?
