There are a couple of trees down on that bit as well for added ooh ooh.

That’s what a chap at work has done, it worked fab for the first couple of thousand miles of his ride to Norway, then 1 of the levers snapped and he had to manually shift down the gears by getting off the bike and moving the levers on the hub. I think he’s going for some thumbies now.

Literally any bike.
I snuck out of work early today and stretched my commute to 45miles. 30 of which were along Marriotts Way part of the old railway line that runs between Norwich and Wroxham. Surprisingly there was not much SFAB, but it won’t be long before the mudfest starts.

They look even better.

Took the Kreissäge out for a spin today and I liked it.

So it is. I need glasses…

After today’s ride out The Kreissäge is on the keep list. I hadn’t ridden it for over a month, but 2.5hrs at a steady 19mph proves I still need a road bike for sunny days like these. The plastic Trek can go though.

Close, maybe they’ve been playing with the adjustable stem?

I also think the cream is boss, but black tyres look different. But only in Guv’nor circles ;)

🔥

Pink. Always the pink.

None of your posh brands here, they are Teckno, no me neither. The chap I got them from always used them on his roadster and said they were good and at £2.50!!! each I thought I’d give them a try.

Nice. They look much racier with black tyres. I’ve bought an alternate set for mine, but so far I haven’t used them.Yet…

Robert Webb rides Audax on his Guv’nor. This is him on LEL this year, I think he missed the time cut off though (due to lack of/too much beer 😘)
He runs a 2 speed crank set up.

I’ll keep that in mind, but I think it’s a keeper, but. tBh who knows. It’s the Cheapskate steamroller 😬

Fuck me I forgot the Titanium Kish!

I’ve been playing in the garage again.
I started to build up my old Trek Domane 4.3 as a flat bar dad bike. I changed a few on it and then went on the bay to source some more. But what the fuck am I doing? I hated it as a road bike, the only thing it had going for it was it was pretty cheap when I got it.
I’ve got too many bikes! There I said it. I need to sort my shit out. I mean why the fuck have I got it all?
I thought I’d write a list of the crap that is littering the shed, loft, garage and store at work, to see what needs to go.

FUCK!

Then there are Liz’s 3 bikes.

I need to get my shit together!
Then there’s the car and all it’s spares.

I’ve said it out loud.
That’s the first step right?

New;

Finally remembered.
Old;
Riverside opposite Queen of Iceni.

Point taken. It’s much worse IRL.

Damn!

No worries fella, but you were right. Somebody I know refers to his SS as a fixedgear and it drives me crazy.
TBH is a great bike, but it has no place in this thread.
My Dolan on the other hand…

Sorry sir. But I do love how those levers feel.

I love my cranes! Ugly as hell, but
