Wife tried to use the popular eco substitute for meths now that the preferred school supplier (a popular outdoor shop) will no longer supply meths or white gas but instead the substitute What really happened was I ended up comissioned to buy meths from the DIY shop and donate it to the doe scheme or...

I need a set of those.....but for carbon oval seat rails :(

Still not got round to it

Yep so a completely arbitrary set of numbers compared to the you who has been puking and shiting from every oriface for 3 weeks. Just try riding sans numbers to get your body used to it again without getting your self paniced that you have gone backwards (which if you have been puking ,shittinf and ...

Of what FTP ..

Unlikely to be a current one. So your riding harder than you think.

To be fair by my last trip I'd have happily cycled home or even taken a walkadile.......

cheery here too ..

signed my uk contract . No longer do i work for and travel too Angola its only taken 9 months.

win.

ride in the garage then

trying to do any kind of interval training straight off the bat is counter productive.

"tried an easy session on the trainer last night and it went badly. =/"

Try a couple of weeks just riding and enjoy it before getting back to training.

As usual for the shires a day after everyone else my BB tee turned up.
Cheers Stuart

And very boringly a few sets of hope hub bearings .

my old man winters arrived.

promptly to be sent back .

ordered the next size up - while i could have got away with them they were tight and certainly not the *wide roomy last* they advertise them as .....

i already ordered an 11 when im actually a 10 - now im into a 12

nice one !

Aye we were displaced with sea water ready to unlatch and go to survival draft on Tuesday night as I slept soundly being rocked to a great nights sleep.

It's a great Friday. Spent the last 2 weeks on a floating penal colony West of Shetland in 8m heave. Woke up on the shore of loch morlich this morning ran up meall a buchallie and back down , swam in loch morlich , had a mountain cafe lunch and coffee and then walked up to the chalamain gap with the...

No worse than any other food if you exercise portion control and balance in your diet.

Supermarket bread on the other hand deserves to die.

Glutafin is the bread of choice in my folks house .... even i can eat it - it doesnt turn to explosive sawdust when toasted like the others.

IIRC its only on prescription though :(

the wifes 45nrths turned up the other day , handed them over last night , Strange woman not only thinks they will be ace for riding bikes in the winter at strathpuffer but says *they look funky just for wearing out and about"

Coeliacs runs in my family - develops in older age. What to watch is A. most things marketed as gluten free in the supermarket tend towards (not always) having too much sugar and salt in to make up for lack of gluten - so pay attention to that. B. There are a lot of gluten free options available on ...

immodium is like duct tape. ive had guardia and a colleague had typhoid. both times the doctor said - the worst thing you can do is immodium. Your body is trying to flush the bugs out. Immodium is not going to cure it , its just a loss prevention material till you can get the drugs that will cure it...

the meer fact i have to use tyre levers means they are hard work.

We used to take comp 24s off 321s by hand.

WTB and DT swiss is a bitch of a combo certainly not one i fancy field servicing.- randomly the Nanos on my other bike as slack as chuff.

WTB mtb tires are a ballache dont feel bad about it.

Ive got some vigilantes on some old DT 5.1s ..... i have to use the Park MX tyre levers to get them on and off..... I run backer rod in them to ensure i can get back to the car iwthout removing them if the tubeless fails.

For 235 quid on those roads I'd want an escort round :)

Not really according to the plot certainly close enough to plot ontop of which track we were riding on. Thankfully Strava et all ignore barometric and apply the map data to it so our climb data matched up and we didn't ride the same route -one thousands of metres above the other. Equally where in a ...

we are not flying an aircraft we are riding a bicycle. Map related height data is close enough ime which echos that of PAD when it comes to the barometric data. Me and the wife both have edge 500s with barometric altitudes. while riding through the rockies we could have varying spot numbers of circa...

another event made by someone with a map ?

This country being England anyway I'm sure.

Quite often in the -3 to -10/-12 during winter up here at commuting times
