Is there anyone near Leatherhead who has a Garmin 235 / 735 charging clip I could borrow for an hour? Forgot to charge it last night....
Payment in pasta salad / choc chip muffin
-
still got this, although it is now in the boot of my car rather than behind the front door.
anyone need it? you could push it around collecting scrap metal if you don't have kids. or a pair of cats. or dogs
-
It wasn't warm like that down in Leyton, and even less so outside of the south circular and then the M25.
Decent amount of fog on Hackney Marshes on my way back too.
Left home at 7.20am, left work at 4pm.
Base layer, bib shorts and tights, three pairs of gloves, windtex jacket and skull cap.
I was still cold at either end
-
yeah it is. It was serviced pretty recently, say 600 miles ago because it was seized.
As long as it gets me to work and back tomorrow I'll be happy
I think I'll start saving for some new wheels. I fancy a dynamo for my nighttkme seaside trips.
-
I tightened the skewers and the noise has not happened again.
DIY skills 1/10

Cheers - here and on the other one. Double cheers!
-
thanks a lot, I'll have a look when I get back home tonight.
-
my rear wheel has started sounding like this
Any ideas what it might be? Doesn't seem to be anything interfering with the wheel, maybe the hub?

Your Mileage May Vary

My rear wheel has started making weird noises, mainly when going downhill, or after hitting a bump.
It sounds like this:
I've had a check, and nothing seems to be loose (rack, mudguard, pannier) so would I be right in thinking that it is most likely the hub internals making it? Mavic Ksyrium Equipe.
Thanks in advance

congratulations! You may find that your long distance running improves. Those long runs suddenly become that much more peaceful and enjoyable.
There is a definite tipping point though - I think with my first I could run unhindered, but then when the twins came along, I had about 6 months of carrying on as before, and then my performance started to take a dive.
YMMV of course

Got my first Festive 500 flat this morning at around 7.15 in Ewell Village.
Ho ho fucking ho

Is Wanstead Village near to Wanstead?
I live near Leyton Village, which isn't far from Leyton
-
I'm heading off at around 5am from Leyton, heading over to my office near Guildford. Then back again in the evening.
Boring and a bit of a grim ride, over London bridge, A3, a24, full day at work and then back again.
Three of them, one ride to Suffolk and I'll be left with 30 odd miles to finish

Free parkrun entry to the London 10000 has ended, but you can get an entry for £15 here

Do you have two young kids? Do you want a free pushchair?
Are you near E10?
Please come and take mine. Photos on request. It's been well used, but still works as Silver Cross intended.
I'll even hoover all the crumbs off it if you take it away soon.
I think we have a rain cover for it, and the foot muff bits, but I'd have to have a search for them
-
I now only drink when I'm out. It's made a massive difference to my spending, and my resting heart rate has dropped steadily by around 10bpm over 10 days or so.
I still wake up feeling crap though, but at least it isn't a self inflicted feeling of crapness
Early days, but I haven't found it as hard to (almost) stop drinking as I thought I would

I'm going back with the family today to blow £20 on mincers

Henrietta Inman at Yardarm in Leyton charges £3.80 for a mince pie, but they are worth every penny.

Mine has seemed ok for the past 90 miles. Do I trust it with a solo century tomorrow?
