Re: Bikepacking / ITT specific coaching.
Yes, HM Armed forces specialise in this, obviously plenty come with it already as do many who never see a uniform, I was wondering if it's possible to be taught the mental resilience or even stubbornness that's often required

Re: Bivvy a month 2023.
When I was packing up, I discovered that canals do in fact have a little bit of a flow after all.... I The flow is constrained to allow ducks and wildfowl to swim against the current. CRT tried to develop their assets to act as water supply transfers over 20 years ago. The potential Vyrnwy transfer...

Re: What you done t' your bike today
Alex rode it through Strata Florida, the seal would have been under muddy water for extended periods with the fork being activeAlex thats a shocking amount of wear for one ride, wet or no
I'd be checking the brake fluid as well

Re: BB200 2023
I always felt he was contacted by a "lost ways" team that wanted a path to show on the ground where one didn't exist beforeWhat could be worse is Stu sending us on multiple loops of a short course so that the OS green dashed lines actually have a marked route on the ground

Re: Recommend me a GPS
You can get a converter on Amazon for use with Garmin mounts, I have one, there was a thread and link on here somewhereNot the mounts you'd use with a Garmin bike gps - 500, 1000 etc. The erred mounts are larger and the device slides in, rather than twists.

Re: The tyre amnesty thread - please join!
Which tyre was is pls? A pair of rocket Ron's, there were bought on the basis of "they won't last five minutes around here" so my risk, soft sidewalls and my heft mean they can burp a little on the rear and then start to get worse quickly as the sidewalls are very flexy, have a cut right ...

Re: The Tor Divide - bikepacking challenge across the Peak District
I'm sure it willNot sure that gets Stuart's approval
BB200/300 are not normal events (helps if you get that before Strata Florida in the dark), Other events need to have their own vibe as do Stu's other ones
Looking forward to blue skies and dusty trails.......

Re: Wiggle goes into administration
Islabikes is a real shame, i've not got one yet, but was thinking about it for my eldest. They really have shaped the kids bike market. It's also to their credit that they're winding down the business with no creditors, and will honour warranties. Shame for the staff of all involved of course. Did ...
