@Peter_Carter Any chance you could hold onto these until next month? Have overspent on parts already and still not employed after coming back from travelling so I’m having to reign it in a bit!

Will do, definitely. Have done 200km in the past, just want to gradually increase distances and climbing skills and not give myself unrealistic goals. Just want to ride more tbh!
Bike is here - will collect it next week.

Fitness level is OK. Been in south America for 6 months - lost weight, lots of hiking and trekking.
Based in North London so can get to some of the calendar events in Cambridge, Essex, Herts and Bedfordshire easily. Also have family in Yorkshire and Worcestershire for others.
Plan to get an audax at least once a month if I can on top of solo weekend rides/touring.
