• How many cycling bibs for a weekly commute?

  in General • 3 months, 1 week

  

  My commute varies from 8km to 25km each way depending on schedule, weather, bike choice etc. I have showers at work so am able to get changed easily. For commuting I have 3 short sleeve jerseys, 3 long sleeve jerseys, 3 pairs of bibs, 2 pairs of 3/4 length bibs and 1 pair of bib tights. Added to that, arm warmers, a windproof gillet and a waterproof jacket, plus gloves and too many caps. This means I can put stuff through the wash every couple of days rather than daily.

  Even with a short commute, my view is that I am better/more comfortable riding in proper cycling gear, knowing I am going to have to get changed at work anyway. Cycling kit also dries way quicker so if you have access to an airing cupboard/drying room.

  Have been using a repurposed Carerra MTB for dadbike purposes since the build was completed. My daughter is just 18 months and has been enjoying our rides out in the Thule Yepp Nexxt Mini up front mounted on the steerer. She's quite light for her age so don't really notice her on the bike, although the bike isn't the last word in lightweight technology which probably helps limit the impact.

• MAYDAY!! Travel/flight wizard required... URGENT!!

  in COVID-19 • 4 months, 2 weeks

  

  I have dual UK/Australian citizenship and have been in the UK since February. I have a house, etc. all sitting empty at the moment but I've been lucky to be able to work remotely in this time - there is no way I can get back to Perth with any certainty.

  Having Aus citizenship doesn't give priority to move up the list for the airlines - nothing to do until I get a confirmed seat, but every email I've received is just to advise my booking has been rescheduled. On top of that today's announcement won't exactly help my cause.

  I'm after a pair of Shimano 105 5700 10 Speed Shifters - anything in half decent condition out there?
