    Cheers, my wrists are ruined so i'll have to skip a couple of weekends. I thought it would be my knees that cried for mercy first...wrong again.

    Also the seat is killing my arse, i think i need one with the middle bit missing and a nice comfy one at that- anyone got any suggestions?

    Lovely looking bike you've got there! As for the seat, that's hugely personal but I love my fizik arione (I think you spell it like that). If you're just starting on a road bike, you'll probably find you need a firmer seat after a few months

    Finally got my mtb fixed after months of sitting around looking at it! Enjoyed a steady ride out around Totley/Burbage yesterday and can't wait to get out a bit more. I find it relaxing just taking a steady ride out and appreciating my favourite views. The weather was pretty hairy late afternoon, a sign of things to come!

    Oh, oh. That looks like prime puncture conditions.
    I've just decided I don't trust you anymore.

    Mucky day, so MTB it was. Absolutely shot when I got home and looked like I'd been riding behind a muckspreader!

    What have you treated yourself to now Brian, looks a new addition to the stable with those disc brakes.

    Obviously re-stocking after the clear out?

    The clearout is still ongoing! It's a Trek Crokett 5, and based on the first outing it's brill! PX Uncle John frame currently on eBay and a Pompino still to get rid of, but might have a buyer for it at work (£275ish) if anyone here is interested??)

    Cyclo-cross racing in West Mids League potentially awaits...

    Well done; Get stuck in!

    I still enjoy "recreational" 'cross riding on the old 531 IslaBike, great for mixing on & off road rides; but discs must be nice, after the drama of cantis?

    All kitted up and ready to go, and alas it appears your observation was correct! First puncture I've had in years!
