62nd out if 62 finishers is pretty good in my book so 23rd is amazing. I've not done long paddling trips but I've done enough challenge walks to know that longer, harder endurance events take their toll in more than three physical way. Although with land based distance walking/ running events did l...

That it is. Not something for me I think. I'm more of a float down rapids with a bit of exertion in the play waves then rest on the float down to the next play wave. Well apart from the white knuckle parts where your don't actually grip your paddle hard enough to get white knuckles because you're f...

Very tiring on the arms for those of us who don't do it very often. I have done it for a couple of hours at a time, once every few years, so my arms are not trained for it and my muscles burn. It's a bit like most things, a little bit of technique really helps. An experienced paddler doing, for ins...

Hi It's a "socket head cap Allen screw", sometimes shortened to "socket cap screw". As said, the thread is anyone's guess but a "proper" engineering supplier should be able to help you there Regards tim-b I was told once by the owner of a bolt supplier that it was call...

That is true, I'm googling right now. They are available to buy on their website right now for €1249+VAT which is fairly competitive with the Rohloff (assuming the thing works properly!). Additional hub shells are €119 which is pricey for a blank hub shell but cheap compared to an additional hub ge...

If it is too cold/wet to get the trainer out of the shed:
Squats, lunges, push ups and some hand weights for upper body work.
Running on the spot is good aerobic exercise as well as the skipping rope mentioned earlier

Meanwhile back Downunda you can still get a dormitory bed at a reasonable cost.

...and this one, dear readers, can be yours for a snip, at tuppence change from a ton!! I kid you not - but don't despair, as it comes with free postage :lol: Screenshot 2020-09-07 at 20.29.36.pngFor that price, you'd have thought they'd have the decency to have cleaned it up. I have one of those i...

The 28mm tyres, old Vittoria Randonneurs, give a much harsher ride than the 36 X 622 Schwalbe Supremes on the Mercury. I can't go more than the 28mm but can anybody suggest a more supple tyre? almost any of the current crop of lightweight 'road' tyres, eg schwalbe one, conti GP5000, various vittori...

Seems quite sensible to me.

I have a Merino Beanie that I bought in NZ . It cost £40, which sounds crazy, but its sooo good, sooo warm and it even resists wind! Its actually 40% Meino Wool, 40% Possum fur and 20% silk. Someone mistakenly introduced Possums into NZ and now there is 70 million of them - they are a pest whose fu...
