I'd go Garmin. I have two and they also work nicely with other garmin accessories you might/might not have such as car sat navs, HR monitors, watches, trainers etc. Touchscreens can sometimes be a pain in heavy rain but can be easier in the dry. Bigger screens are easier to use/see but tend to use m...

I've just ordered 5m of the 30mm. 2m for the 650x47 Ventures and 3m for the 29x??? The 650b is needed more urgently as I haven't got the 29 tyres of choice yet. I was going to get 40mm for the 29, but the postage increased by £16 as soon as I put the 40mm in the cart. If 30mm is too small, then I ha...

I had the first puncture in years that sealent didn’t sort, so I want to add some run flat to my tyres just in case.

This is how it look Egan it’s not active, on their website. IMG_0307.jpeg Wow, thanks for this post, I never realised you could get inReach without Garmin's subscriptions. The Protogear subscriptions look far better. Just to make sure I understand you right, you are paying the yearly fee (£49) and t...

Yea that correct, so far I have been billed the yearly fee, some daily fees and some extra message fees I sent during testing. I did get them to email me the details before I signed up and they were happy to confirm this. Once it is set up, you go to a webpage on their site and select the date you w...

Sure if you pm me your email address I’ll send some over for you.

Thanks for that info very helpful. What diameters did you use in the various wheel sizes you mentioned?

Thanks

It’s a great book you will enjoy the recipes.

Friends say it's like I'm sleeping on a giant bag of crisps, but if I'm using it then I'm normally so tired I'm asleep in seconds and so have never heard it myself!

Not all things in Ali express are bad. I have bought stuff from a responsible company who just doesn't have the staff and time to deal with outside their local area, so they use Ali express to do all their non local sales. They can charge a fair price for their product and Ali Express deals with all...

Is this still for sale?

Thanks

Hey, those of you that have made your own inserts, can you suggest a good uk supplier for the foam and also any suggestions on what diameter for 650x47 and 29x2.6.

Would these be any good?

I ave owned a Spot Tracker for several years and used it quite a lot intially and I now have a Garmin Inreach mini, which I have had for almost a month. After using the Inreach a few times, I can now offer some thoughts on the pro's and cons of the two systems. I am comparing the Spot Gen 3 to the I...

Well as I had the route and its local ish to me, I rode the route of the mid September CCP Time is Miles Audax. It seemed easier as the climbing was much less than the previous weekend's one but almost double the amount listed on the Audax website, but I did have a head wind on most of it some how. ...

Have just booked in at The Mount Inn, Llanidloes for the night before the event. Was fine when I stayed there before the WRT, and not too far away from the start (saves me a 5am start from home). I noticed The Star was doing rooms again, but I think it would be odd to stay there now (for me at leas...

10.7 kmh average .....you could run it :wink: I know, that's what makes me smell a rat..... Or perhaps I just did the most difficult one in the South and the next one is the easiest one? The third one I have entered at the ned of September is 100km dead, 662m and 10 hours. Hoping that I can complet...

Nice one mate, that last one I did in the Peaks was a Grimpeur (Someone who climbs apparently) :???: 106k 2250m actually enjoyed the route and weather even tho it lashed down for all for 10-15k of it. 2 hilly ones end of August :-bd One of the guys that I ride with for a bit was telling me that his...

Can’t remember now, I’ve ordered a replacement so it’s got to be one in one out.
