I wonder sometimes if some people here do anything for fun. Sometimes it is nice to say "stuff common sense". Also, is it valid to question the testers criteria when they are his? To him they were valid, or possibly at the limits of practicality to him. Its a bloody bike, an item , for mos...

Nutty!. :lol: I'll get my hat...... Its fiddly. Best skinned, rough gutted and a stick shoved up its bum. Open fire with various spices etc added. Pick the meat off to the limit of your patience. A mate reckoned that the way to tell if a squirrel was good to eat was to twist its tail around your fin...

I believe that the article says that inexperienced/less fit cyclists are wrong to twiddle excessively. Froome etc are different.
I know we are all different but I have always maintained that spinning a very low gear fast is daft. My legs are at their best a a slower cadence.

Lever hoods look low so maybe undue pressure on tape. Hard to tell though.

That's the Lizard skin? Different tapes wear at different rates and maybe that was some fragile stuff. Do your hands move about? Gloves maybe a bit rough. Doubt it though. Never managed that much wear but wouldn't let it get to that state so can't say how long it would have taken me. put money on it...

Sugino used to use the name Mighty. I am damn sure that its also popped up on my radar in another place this week.

A couple of years ago we went with Icelandic air. Great. East mids airport asked us to put our big but not huge hold alls through the oversize check in. No queue so on the way back we went straight there. Even less of a queue. Us. Very friendly country. English spoken better than many Brits. Expensi...

Sadly the tunnel is blocked up so through trips are no out.

'tis.

Soap or water or whatever is on my face. No adverse comments from my wife who is quick to take offence if my eyebrows so much as wander. No2 haircut here as well and receding.

Same old story. Something new is bad. :roll: Shall we assume that all those objectors are riding hobby horses? After all pedals are not really needed and are a pointless complication. Why not stop having a go at other peoples pleasure? My wife buys, to me, too many clothes. That's her pleasure. Hard...

Cheers Andy.
In RWGPS I can create and name a route. Haven't tried the mapping yet but it looks possible.

Sorry for vague title, couldn't think of a better but short one. Can anyone point me towards an online route planning site that allows me to plan one route and save it and then on the same map, with the first route showing, plan another? I use RidewithGPS usually although occasionally something like...

Hi Nidge. Welcome. As you can see this is the biggest can of worms ever. They are all correct as its a bit subjective. There does tend to be a big of value and longevity hunting here. Again all very correct but what does get pushed to one side is the desire to want something new and flashy just beca...

I'm in the no camp if being fussy. And perfect means fussy. My rough stuff bike is nicer if I take the FC gravel but my road bike nicer if I go the hilly road way. The best way has a smooth long tarmac hill climb followed but a barely tarmacrd descent and climb of nearly a mile each with 300 ft of d...
