Loads of nice Folk knitted polo shirts and t-shirts in tx maxx. Didn’t purchase any as my wardrobe is full of polos that I don’t wear!

There was an article in Rouleur this month on Dj Spoony and this bike. Funnily enough it was "produced" in association with Ribble. To be fair the article wasn't all that bad.

I did the same for Sainsbury's too but it wasn't on a hill, but there certainly some rises and dips in the car park. Can't recall hitting any cars, but I do remember trying to get as many in a train as possible.

I also remember getting told off for having a sit down in the shade and drinking water, when it was like 25 degrees plus.

Anyone got any recommendations for grey t-shirts with a pocket that don't cost a fortune?

I was thinking something along the lines of this Carhartt workwear t-shirt:

But I think as this is the workwear range it will be too boxy for me, as i'm 6ft 4, 38" chest, 32" waist, 82Kg.

DHB long sleeve jersey I wanted just came back into stock, so why not buy a second Co2 mini pump and x10 Co2 cartridges as well!

Hmm at Wiggle the Castelli bib tights I was going to buy in XXL tomorrow when I get paid, have mysteriously jumped from £38 to £76. Like people said it appears they have a random price generator at work.

Agreed insane prices, i've given up bothering to even look at buying tickets for bands I like, as they are so expensive and all play the huge venues like Wembley, Spurs stadium etc.

Thanks for letting me know, I did see them on Merlin cycles at around £160 but they seem to have sold out. I’ll try listing them on the time trialling forum.

Can’t fit and didn’t even consider drilling the frame even though it is a second hand boardman air 9.8!

Spent an hour or two on Alan Wake 2 tonight, and loving it. Enjoying the slow pace of the game, storyline and I was so happy to visit Bright Falls again. Also enjoying the nods towards Control, and the Federal Bureau of Control which I believe is part of trying to link the Alan Wake game with the Control game.

Yeah, I was looking to order a lifeline pump & cleats, and some energy bars but it is reading like there won't be any staff to fulfil the order.

Yep the single button ones, and it is a pair - I was thinking around £140. If you're interested or need photos just drop me a message.

I also have other Di2 brand new parts if anybody is interested, as my TT build can't accommodate Di2 due to the age of the frame and not being able to fit the cabling through the frame!

Just checking to see if there's any interest but I have some brand new, Shimano Dura Ace Di2 TT End Shifters (SW-R9160) for sale if anybody is interested?

Nope, not played the DLC for Cyberpunk 2077 I think I need a break from it for a while!

I'm looking forward to Alan Wake 2, as I completed the remastered version in November last year, and I loved Control.

Cyberpunk 2077 completed last night - I have to say I did enjoy the game, I got about 40 hours out off and only paid £13 for it, so definitely got my moneys worth.

I think i'll purchase Alan Wake 2 next, and save Tomb Raider Remastered for the Switch for when i'm on holiday next month in Majorca.

Yep that's what i'm guessing too, unless it's the bar tape on the Colnago's!

Cheers for the advice, I think i'll stick to my trusty GP5000's and maybe look into selling the turbo cottons as I think they're probably more appropriate as a race tyre and not appropriate for UK roads even in summer!

Review of the remastered Tomb Raider 1-3 up on Eurogamer:

https://www.eurogamer.net/tomb-raider-i-iii-remastered-review

The review seems positive, though I am concerned about the controls - I still remember playing the first Tomb Raider on a family friends PC when I was kid, and getting Tomb Raider 2 as a Christmas Present and spending most of the Christmas day playing it.

I am sorely tempted to get this, though I still need to complete Cyberpunk 2077, Metroid Dread, and I also want to get Alan Wake 2 and Super Mario Bros Wonder.

I live just over 10 miles from Bedford, and whilst I have never ridden into Bedford, I can confirm that I have never seen anybody riding fixed in Bedfordshire bar 1 person on the club ride and even then I can't remember if we even went into Bedfordshire or not!

Anybody got much experience of s-works turbo cotton hell of the north, the ones that are 28mm wide?

I have them and put them on last summer with butyl inner tubes, and I only lasted two rides before I took them off as I thought the ride felt terrible and I got loads of gravel stuck in them and lost all confidence of them handling British roads.

I'm heading to Majorca next month, and was wondering whether it was worth investing in latex inner tubes and putting the turbo cottons back on, or just stick with my trusty Conti GP5000 clinchers and butyl inner tubes?

Any advice, much appreciated.

Nah Super Ted was better

I spotted Percival in my local one.

Wow those are great, what a bargain. I have my eyes on some black iron rangers, but the £300-£330 price tag is quite hard to stomach even though I know they'll last for ever.

Okay cheers - i'll take mine in and see what the cobbler can do, I was hoping to get a like for like red wing sole. Looking at the label in mine, they seem to say 07/10 which may suggest i've had these since 2010 eekk.

I was looking at using Original Cobblers as they are recommended by Red Wing. My chukkas need doing as well and it is £130 at Original Cobblers, which is probably nearly what I paid for them all them years ago!

I asked in my local cobbler and he reckoned he could do my red wing chukkas for about £50 if he can source the parts. Is it worth paying the extra money for Original Cobblers to do them?

If anybody is interested they're selling Percival in TKMaxx, I got a great shacket for £40 down from £149.
