Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
I just submitted an invoice for a day's work of MTB guiding.

Re: Bivvy a month 2023.
Between Blackhound and myself, there's a fully functioning shelter somewhere. While I had tarp and pole, unfortunately I didn't have pegs. I checked and double checked the forecast, crossed my fingers, and settled down for what would hopefully be a dry night. A little after 3am, I woke to rather mor...

Re: 22g Stove - how much meths?
I once had problems with a cold stone floor sucking all the heat out of my stove. I used a bit of bark as an insulating mat and it started to play nicely. Tricky, isn't it?

Re: French Medical Cert Sign Off?
That's how I did it. I get the impression that many GPs don't like doing it, as it's a slightly meaningless note (more "there are no obvious pre-existing conditions", rather than "this person is physically fit and able to do this event").

Re: Convert 2 x 10 to 1 x10?
I think the limiting factors will be chainring clearance around the chainstay, and tyre clearance around the front mech and/or chain.

Re: Today's Run
New shoes day, turns out they're very comfy.
9.6km, 450m climbing up and down the Wrekin and Ercall. Bluebells are out, I saw a little gang of fallow deer in the woods, and the sun shone. Feeling good.

I red pandas.
I've also just indulged in a bit of retail therapy (new running shoes), so feeling pretty cheery.

Re: Today's Run
Carrying your own camping kit? I'm sure you could if you wanted to. The folk who set it up include Stef from Pannier, so they all kipped at his place in Castelton when they recce'd it.

I feel like I've been on a journey just reading about it! Looks ripe for loading up for a luxury bivvy (camp chair, wine.cooler, wood-fired.hot tub...).

IPA not especially exciting. Kakawa chocolate stout (Thornbridge) much better.

Lidl have a few "specially brewed for Lidl by..." cans at the mo. I'm about to try Harbour's "Big On Sesh" IPA.

Re: Suggest some 29er rims
Kinlin TL-29 are serving me well. Not silly heavy, built up fine, relatively affordable. Also available branded as Halo for a few £££ more (and I'm pretty sure they're what Hunt use for their "Trail Wide" wheels). 29mm internal width has been great with tyres in the 2.4-2.6" range - y...

Re: Today's Run
Did a short loop round the local woods at teatime yesterday, then out and back today along Froggatt Edge. Physio exercises seem to be helping, I'm aiming for some longer runs - 9.3km the longest so far since I re-did Couch to 5k.
