Wise words in a subscription blog-email yesterday, I am working on slowing the rhythms of my life down, perhaps like a hibernating animal slows its heart-beat. I feel like now’s the time for life-advice from people who spend years living on space-stations or alone in arctic weather outposts. Ooooo,...

I'll tell you what I did to my bike today..... .....I blimmin' well rode it! Admittedly it was around the garden participating with my 6 and 8 year olds on an MTB skills course I've made for them. Highlights include: the balance beam (1m long, 10cm wide, 10cm off the ground), the seesaw, the tree s...

Parcel guy came With my suss forks (first set since some pace RC35s!).

I've got one. PM me your address and I'll post the bits

Strange how the villain is almost a Poirot.

only if you've been face fitted for it and are clean shaven at all times when wearing it.

Am gonna have the best tool kit holdall in town.
