Ah, that's good to know... I'd have imagined the roads would be fairly quiet and there's nothing I like less than a busy, narrow A or B road. Same questions as @hippy then.

There's also the 1000 Cymru next year which just look silly. Oh and I'd be keen on giving a go at the Wessex SR if it runs again... too many rides >_>

I was eyeing the West Highlands 1000 which is just one week earlier.

The advantage of buying an ugly-ass grinder is that it makes an excellent sticker support.

I bought a convertible gabba in 2015. I'm now thinking about downsizing, from XL to L. Apparently the new convertible gabba is the Perfetto? Can I expect the sizing to be similar?

Thanks; have PM'd both of you :)

@user71349 we can team up? Otherwise I'll take both.

@StevePeel Thank you so much again for the warm welcome this afternoon! You certainly have a very nice shop and I drank the tastiest coffees I've ever drunk. Can't wait to try the beans now!

Rode my first fixed 300 today as a DIY. Left home at 5h30, went to Cambridge (fell off in a corner at km 60 because of a thin layer of mud on the road -_-), then to Northampton (ft. all the headwind), had amaaazing coffees at Yellow Bourbon Coffee Roasters, then went back to London (with an additional kilo of beans in the saddle bag). Nice day for it, and nice weather apart from the 80km of headwind between Cambridge and Northampton. Next time I'll probably go directly to Northampton though, or maybe even try mail order :D

Also I rode through Milton Keynes on the way back, this place is weird.

Replied and cap paid. Thanks!

@LuigiDolomite Can I take a Vitesse Reflective cap please?

Thanks!

ha, thanks, yours isn't too shabby either!

Hi @youramericanlover !

Well that would be going big and going home, actually.

Signed up for the Waveney Wander and mapped the ECE route. Questions to answer now are fixed vs gears (probably fixed) and should I try and ride back as well (thanks nothing @hippy for putting the idea in my head)

3rd dibs on frame bag, you never know.

Top ride! Thanks all and especially our dear leader @middleofnowhere

I think it's a good call.

When would you be leaving?

Our last chance is a dodgy weather forecast, but even then I've got a waterproof this time round.

That'd be the plan. On the other hand I do have some days off remaining for 2017...

It's basically a DunRun in November with another 100k on top of it :)

Yeah, I got confused. I meant 300. Already less attractive, but still interesting...

I think I'll enter the Waveney Wander in Suffolk on the 26th of November and ride to the start from North London to turn it into a 200. Anyone interested in coming along or is everybody busy chasing crazy AAA goals?

Just do it the other way around the 2nd time?

I'm out this week unfortunately.
