I'll google santini. Cheers!



I wasnt really aiming to get any where. I just fancied riding with street lights rather than the pitch black (to avoid potholes). I headed through bamber bridge, through lostock hall and inevitably penwortham. I could either have backtracked once I'd past the turn in for your estate or carry on through preston.

I canni ride during the half term myself, I dont have a day off until 6th Nov.
Ah, you've reminded me.....is Preston College open next week? I have to enrol on an evening school! Oh joy!

you did get a bargain, it's lovely!

errr running/camping kit the list is sadly too extensive to list and to depressing to be reminded of. Bike kit that went was helmet, shoes, over shoes, arm and leg warmers and my cape and jacket.

Shoes are the priority then I can at least ride it again!

Feckers.

C'mon, Emmi, Dazz et al; now that I have the bike of my dreams ( Planet X Ti Sportive + Ultegra 3x10 groupset ), please name me a really good track pump with accurate pressure gauge, for getting the Conti Gatorskins rock solid, pre-ride. I have a compact TopPeak Road Morph for faffing with roadside emergencies, but want something quick and accurate for home use.

All very impressive indeed but not on a carbon road bike! It must hurt the old under carriage without full suspension...
