Here it is from the wrong side, 1000km into my holiday.

I wish I was taller, lived in Catford, and had room for another bike.

I always underdo the overlap on the bottom half then overdo it in the top half because I am cheap and reluctant to cut a bit off the end when it's too long.

Yes I have one of those. Used it maybe half the time (mostly out of town german supermarkets, nowhere with lots of people). Still have my bike. Considering all the other crap I've brought it's not taking up much weight or space.

JTFC, his arms are bigger than my legs

I accidentally impulse-bought a space horse and now I'm riding it around large parts of southern germany with too much luggage.

Any lock is just a token gesture while you nip into an out of town supermarket. I mean you're not going to bring all your luggage into the shop either, just the handlebar bag. If some cunt nicks my bag of dirty bibs and a wet tent, I've probably come out ahead.

Lycra Destroying System

And don't buy titanium pans because they're shite. It doesn't conduct heat well, you get hot spots, and your dinner burns onto them.

The Trangia Triangle is quite good. It is a knock-off of the Clikstand, which is better because it has bits on the corners to hold the windshield. I can't remember what I paid for my clikstand many years ago but it sure as hell wasn't as much as it costs these days.

I'll be using my Appoggio Lombare for that

A Carradice Junior (thanks Tammy) is just the right size for a handlebar bag but it's too floppy. So I have bodged a stiffener for it out of an Ikea desk mat.

I've tried a couple of different 27.2 mm seat posts but they simply won't go in

It's probably a bit pinched at the clamp, try spreading that out a bit.

Somebody at school got one of these, we all thought it was supernice.

Nice mudflaps

Steep, it's practically vertical.

How close do the top handlebars come to your chest and/or shoulders? The first (or second, depends whether you're counting from the top or the bottom) stem looks incredibly high.

"Zero house contract"?

Looks like a productive week in the workshop.

These ones look like spoonbills or something. Those other ones looked like elephants. Bars down, hoods off, replace with hoods that look like hoods.

Spirit level on the back not really pulling its weight

You can put Europe on it.

Re-spotted black trickshot

I think I'm getting it. I'm also getting a twitchy eye from the way that mudguard flexes under the fork crown.

I'd like a switch that removes John Virgo from the commentary box.
