Cheers Norm, looking at the Nitro 20 now, really liking the look from them, thank you :)

Hey all, I am due to be getting back out into the woods this November for my first bivvy in over 18 months, suffice to say I am a little excited, but I do need to pick up some new kit as I loaned mine forward to family to help get my nephews addicted as I am. Right now I am pondering sleep systems, ...

Hi and welcome, I have been using a Vango Banshee 200, far from the lightest tent out there but it is solid and reliable, good for regular touring and bike packing, I would like something lighter but it is a good starter item.

I have not used suspension of any kind for ages, instead preferring a fully rigid set up, that said I have ridden more progressive geometry bikes with suspension for both trail and bike packing use, they handle both really well, if you look at many of the set ups for events like the Great Divide and...

I think at that HR, I would probably pass out right now, lovely photo's all.

Made the most of the dodgy weather and swapped the transmission on my Surly to Microshift Advent X and upgrade the brake levers to a set of TRP ones, first time I have been able to spanner in over a year :)

vaguely exciting thanks, luckily I work in the trade so cost is a non issue, I will probably use it with my stash of alpkit dry bags :)

Hey all, this has been discussed before and I have read a little into them, so I am looking at picking up a Aeroe Fat Spider for my Surly Wednesday, has anyone had any long term experience or feedback with the system? I am looking at using a top bag and two smaller side bags instead of a heavier rac...

Hey all, I am in the process of clearing out my bits and bobs, I just have one bike now and no projects so I have many parts I no longer need or will use again, photo's available on request, I can post in the UK for £3.50, collection is from Somerset. Apidura seat pack 9 litre original version - ver...

Back when I used to use my older Edge 800 I used to download maps from here https://www.openfietsmap.nl/ and load the map onto a SD card for loading into the computer, not quite an OS map but thy do some good maps, got me around France a couple of times.

Love the pancake idea, going to give that a try.

A vote for Co-op locals, saved my ass more than once when I crawled into one soaking wet, hungry and tired, really handy in Devon and Cornwall.

Defo a nod to the suggestions, the legends room, possibly add Cass Gilbert to the list?

I actually got to speak to a friend who is staff in one of the Cornish YHA buildings, it seems they are selling them on as a franchise and will stay within the YHA structure, I have stopped in many over the years, sadly now they are pricing themselves out of the market, when it is cheaper to get a B...

Great report, always fancied a beach bivvy, sadly it is a bit too busy on my local stretch of beach (14mile round trips worth) plus over night sleeping is banned :( Might try a winter one at some point.

If you are having issues selling then it may be worth contacting Robin at thorn cycles, he does buy back bikes for re-sale again, won't get as much as a private sale but it will move, email the sales team at Thorn with photo's.

Saw them on Instagram, looking lush up there, thanks for sharing

After what can be described as a catastrophic last 12 months I am finally back on the bike, the damage done to my brain actually means that cycling is much easier than walking, I have been very worried that I would not be able to ride again, at least now I am able to start the rebuilding process, al...

Count me in for this, a little late to the start and I will weigh in tomorrow. I am currently recovering from Brain surgery to remove a tumour which has been degrading my health for the last three years and totally written the last eighteen months off and left me with limited mobility and fitness. B...

Not sure if they are too big but I am running Surly Extra-terrestrials 27.5x2.5 tyres on my Bridge Club, apart from thick mud they are pretty good

Right now, just riding/learning to ride again, I am at ground zero regarding fitness so putting that back together, I am hoping to get out for a bivvy night this spring, anything more than this is a bonus.

Going to be a quiet one for me, will be trying to ride my bike for the first time this year, I tried pre surgery but ended up falling off, a few lights at home, to be honest at one point I didn't think I would be here this Christmas so being present is more important than ever for me. Best of luck R...

Given what I have been through this year this is so on point for me, what was thought to be Epilepsy turned out to be a brain tumour, I am now recovering post op and finally able to get onto my bike once again. My whole point of view/priorities have changed, as I slowly return to work I won't be wor...

I am running 650x2.5 on my Bridgeclub, finding the 2.3-2.6 size pretty sweet, gives a nimble feel while still keeping some float.

Selling my Tacx Flux S, used three times, still got the original box. Selling as I don’t get on with indoor trainers.

£300 collected, postage will be on application due to weight.
