Test order placed, cheers Ordered Sunday, as above Email from Gavin on Monday morning saying 1 thing was out of stock and would I like to wait to get it all together? I explained that I needed it for this weekend and he sent out what he had and a few freebies to say sorry https://farm9.staticflickr...

Can you see the file on your GPS in a folder somewhere?

If so click "show on map"

Test order placed, cheers

I'll be on my 29er version of the 3" on 45mm rims next weekend if you want a spin on them. They are very fast tyres, they roll really well on tarmac and gravel roads, but they are awful in deep mud or for beach riding. They do like picking up thorns quite often and they are baggy on the rims so...

2 x bib shorts and a pair of knee warmers from Planet X's offer day yesterday

Not for 12 months now, to much gear slippage and nuts into headset interfaces for me when under pressure.

Got 2 Rohloff's now on 2 bikes with 3500 miles on them (combined miles) and never looked back

Here's mine



It's a SilWing .

but I have another question if you don't mind a slight hijack.

In what weather conditions would a bivi bag be needed to keep the sleeping bag dry under the Siltarp please?

Doh, waited until the Yorkshire one became available.....

Now they are a pound each

Why didn't I order all the rest for free then pay a quid for Yorkshire today?

I remember an advert from a few years ago for the clothing company The North Face

'The beaten path is for beaten men"

I think Stu took this to heart with his route planning for other riders to "enjoy"

Just pack wellies and practice pushing your bike.

Congrats Ian and Beth

Sorry I don't understand your question.

Yes it's a solid strip with drilled holes for the screws.

Don't stress, you don't have to go to any check points at all, there are no rules, no winners, no losers, it's just a bike ride over 3 days and 2 nights.

Cheers for the update

Just $21.49 Australian Dollars including postage about £11.12 all in.

Not bad eh? Hardly worth the hassle of making one yourself.
