Interest pending design and manufacturer.
Endura perhaps?
Discrete inbuilt Custard cream dispenser?

June bivi was a botch/fail. Yeah I camped out. Missed the planned solstice ride due to fun police intervention. On a working holiday in france the following week. Decided to bivi at a fave spot. Weather turned bad, realised I had not done a road test on the new tarp. I set it up in the garden (event...

My place of work is 12.7 miles away. It is about 200 metres higher than where I live with a two or three minor ups and downs in between. I have a choice of off road or on road routes. I ride to work 4 days a week all year round. Been hit by two cars, crashed on black ice, been half drowned in the wi...

14 year old karrimor goretex paclite jacket.
Always take it on rides.
Bit thin in places.
Still waterproof.

Aarrgghh my eyes!
Bucket/Turbo

Nice.

Hmm reckon it would take 11 hrs.
Much easier with a tail wind.
I think it would take me between 11 and 14 hrs.
Never done it all in one lump.
Have done eastbourne to qe park.
And numerous other sections.
The hills are a lot bigger at the eastbourne end.

Hi Yesterday I was knocked off my bike whilst travelling to work. A car pulled out in front me at a crossroads and I piled into the passenger side. I have a painfully bruised thigh and a few stiff joints but nothing broken. The bike needs a new brake/lever and the mech hanger straightening out. Can ...

Quick blast to the beach overnighter.

Why are gas clouds always "the size of Nebraska" in movies?
Maybe its like using Wales or Switzerland as an approximate unit of measurement.
Anyway. yes it does happen to me. See above. You have been warned.

I enjoyed reading this.
There is some potential crossover...

How about a partial frame bag?
Wish that is what I had gone for.
Or, how about relocating your bottle cage with a monkii clip?
Sure as eggs is eggs, if you strap a bag to your back you will carry more stuff and get a sweaty back to boot.
Just sayin.

On one Mary Bars here.
Referred to by some as wendy bars.

I thought Doggers were a myth like Narwhals or Roller-Cam brakes.
It disturbs me to discover they are real.
I suppose that they were more scared of you than you of them.

I really really want one of these.
I don't need one. It's lust.
Just think though, two wheeled beach combing!

Bees/wasps entering clothing and Stinging you. Ow f**k f**k f**k. New shrub/tree growth getting jammed in the small gaps between the spokes near the hub flange and winding round and round, steadily winching you into the undergrowth where you will ultimately cause hilarity to all of those around you....

The stem that I fitted to the GT peace was an "aber hallo".
Hideous but useful In setting up a workable position on a bike that was a bit on the longside for me with the midge bars.

I sold this bike.
why did I do it?
I really miss it.
I know it's an underbraked frankenmunter but it was fun.
Sold it to build up an OO456 ti which broke.
(Don't get me started).
Oh well...
Anybody pining for an old bike? Or maybe lusting after a new one?...............

So, what about the saddle?
I would go for a charge spoon or, maybe a scoop.
If money were no obstacle, I might try a brooks cambium.

Bought some of these recently.
They are pretty good for the money.
The rim tapes are crap though.....

Aaaarrghh!
I hate Shimano external bottom brackets.
I buy at least one a year.
That cant be right.
Can it?
I like their brakes though. Oh, and their gears but not their chains.

"The Upon is an ultra-light and very packable tent – it packs down to about a foot long in its own dry bag and uses your trekking bike as the main support for the sleeping compartment. An awning flap gives further protection from the elements, and the V-support at the far end is inflated to cre...

Might be of interest to some.
Steel cross bike.
Reynolds tubes.
Low price.

hi
I use this as a year round commuter jacket.

Tough but not too heavy.
roomy sleeves and cuffs, long back.
not too dorky off the bike either.

I have downloaded bits and pieces from radio 4 library. In our time (mainly just the science ones) Also, quite enjoyed Short Cuts. There's a few of those. Some audiobooks might be worth a go. Really enjoyed Iain M Banks the Player of Games. Although you may not like fiction let alone science fiction...

These look like they might be replacing my Marys if/when they become available.....

Should be a slightly less financially painful experience compared with Jones and the like. Maybe?
