I have an XL and an XXL Bearbones royal blue “Ride, Eat, Sleep..a never ending cycle” t-shirt/ base layers Neither has been worn at all, I have just washed them as they were at bottom of wardrobe. They are a close fit, so one to size up on maybe £10 each posted Uniqlo down vest, thin and very small ...

Read the Twitter feed as above, its all the other Corporate accounts wading in that is funny even the NHS:

The fine given to the hikers should be double what the rescue cost, with half going to the injured team member.

Could almost do with attaching some straps to a zipped pencil case?

Any of the 76 Projects stuff any good?

https://www.76projects.com/

They do a really good ASS system, stick on mount for top tube, so top-tube bag can slide on and off easily without any straps?

I've been using Laka Insurance, community funded so premiums can be fairly cheap too.

Personally best thing i have used to remove sealant was a rough dishcloth my wife's nan used to knit us! And personally i have found Stans Race best sealant in tyres running up to 50 psi, for road tyres and tyres that need over 50psi, i have found Orange Seal best, Stans doesn't seem to like the hig...

What brake pads for rock climbing....?

This seems to be a clash between the impractical nature of high fashion and the Instagram love of "The Outdoors (TM)" where most mountains and beautiful views have been reduced to a backdrop for beautiful people to stand in front of for Likes...

I've come to realise that riding bike is good, riding bike with friends is better, riding bikes with friends kitted up for a night under tarp is bestest... so missing the social aspect mostly... But as i have barely left my village since March, I have just developed a coping mechanism of routine usi...

To add my thoughts, i had 6 Garmins before my Wahoo Element, and now my Roam. Every one of the Garmin developed a glitch of some sort, whether it failed to upload routes, would just start turning itself off randomly, or the last one the battery just died. I think the Garmin have good hardwear which ...

i think for me, all my bikes on all types, have been bought or built with a bikepacking slant, including the gravel bike. So i have a fat bike as i live near miles of beaches that has mount for bags and jones-style bars, i have a "monster-cross" style Singular Gryphon with low gearing and ...

My biggest regret was riding with Boris up one of the Surrey Hills on the first Ride London......and not pushing him in a ditch, hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I am looking for the same myself, my daughter at 10 years old has just hit 5ft and her bike i bought her last year, is now dwarfed.. There is a few on ebay if you type in "xs mountain bike" Spec. Hardrock, Cailbre Bossnut. But why do people insist on "Collection Only" in the midd...

Remember that 10 speed Shimano road shifters have the same pull ratio as 9 speed MTB stuff. So a very reliable wide-range system can be had potentially with some of the 9 speed stuff you have and some older 10 speed road shifters, ran it on my old Fargo and worked well. Or if you can get a whole che...

I'm thinking that if nothing else it will make us appreciate the little things more and our own locality.. I was looking forward to a bikepacking trip to Slovenia and to go to New York that we had saved up for, for my wife's 40th. Now, i would be happy to go for a bivvy trip to the coast 10 miles aw...

I was thinking that you could use existing strap with the Joystick holding part over the top, then stitch to a blank thick band of elastic around the head, so torch sits at top?

Would it be worth just buying some thick elastic and making a different headband for the Joystick? Can't be too difficult to make one that had the band still round head, but then strip over the top to hold the light on top of your barnet? Seems a much cheaper way, as the Joystick is a great light.

I guess the 8pm show will mirror Scotlands announcement already, that we are going into a proper lockdown including schools closing?

So more poor attempts at home-schooling again for me!

Totally agree with you Matt, whilst i don't live in a mountainous area, we have an island called Scolt Head, one of those you can wade across to on the lowest point of the tide, then have to wait the 12 hours to get back, being rescued from the island for people who don't realise tides comes in and ...

I suspect Matt that people who rarely hike up a hill, or get out into the countryside often feel safety in numbers, if they can see a stream of people going up and down a hill, then they don't need to attempt to navigate anywhere or feel they might get lost, plus they know there will be an ice-cream...

I live in a rural area, and consider myself lucky to do so, my wife works as a consultant in our local hospital, but what bugs me is that every time there is a lockdown, we clearly see a stream of Range Rovers, Audi and Jaguar SUV's, with those driving it adorned in tweed and Hunter wellies all head...

I think for touring a Dinglespeed would be great, i run a Bombtrack Needle road bike with 46/16 and Singular Peregrine on 45c with 40/16 which works for me, but then i live in Norfolk and only do 1000m of climbing in a ride at most locally. The new Peregrine frame would make a lovely tourer? Love th...

I read somewhere though that it won't be fully completed until 2040? So hopefully we'll be able to travel freely by then!
