I've seen it before but it is indeed awesome and beautiful

saw this guy on yesterday's commute and he appears to be playing Lufguss Bingo with his floating rack, old school frame, quill stem, D-lock and LLL tee

29er or 700c? It's all gravel innit?

Racing away from the lights at Balham tube station on yesterday evening's commute

Nope but I recently painted my garage walls white using cheap emulsion and a brush. Two coats went on surprisingly quickly and easily

Edit: I keep meaning to start a thread on it myself but haven't got around to it yet

I've ridden to the Hook of Holland from Dunkirk using much of the North Sea route which is good fun as it includes ferries, bridges, dykes, canals and island hopping.

Have posted the route here before, will see if I can find it.

And yes IMO very doable.

Edit: here we go https://www.lfgss.com/comments/15883395/

that's a great ride, really enjoyed it. Had a long lunch in a little village at the end of the gorges too. awesome

Agreed, it was a lovely morning to cycle commute into London although some riders seemed to be overdressed for the weather (yes, I appreciate many Londoners come from warmer climes than here).

The only shock was the level of traffic as its the first time since October 21 that I have cycle commuted on a day other than Friday which still has that eery pandemic feel.
Looking forward to this evening's commute home

its here

Serious Offers Invited for a museum grade bike

no quibble returns policy

Tell me more about this please. My favourite Morvelo shorts have gone see-through at the back and either my Google-Fu is poor or the only no quibble I can see relates to returning something within 14 days of purchase.

Cinglés ? yup did it in June 2018. My best day ever cycling. I did the classic and in my eyes recommended version of Bedoin, Malaucene, Sault.

Started at 7 a.m. and finished about 4 p.m.

Just rescued this little fella who landed on my wife before she got a chance to squash him

As Country Joe Mcdonald sang

the only good leylandii is one that's dead

A leylandii?

Surely you want that to die before it gets out of control

.

as if you didn't have enough options here's my route. All doable on a gravel bike.

takes in Ranmore Common, Leith, Holmbury & Pitch Hill, Cranleigh onto Downs Link and then up and over the aptly named Fulking Hill and Devil's Dyke

EDIT: and here's the obligatory video so you can see what the terrain is like. Me and one buddy were on our 26" MTB but only cos I didn't own a gravel bike last time I rode this route.

Other buddy is on gravel; an Open UP

@MTB-Idle sorry about that, figured it was ok seeing as it wasn’t full of blood or anything, wasn’t sure of a trigger warning or not for the squeamish.

ha, not a problem. Glad you are ok

@Dammit any joy on sourcing a bike for your gf yet?

You could try ringing around the various bike tour or chalet hire companies in Morzine as they often have a bike or two they are willing to hire out e. g. https://www.mtbbeds.com/resorts/morzine-mountain-biking-holiday

(not necessarily a recommendation, just the first thing on Google search. Others are available)

Sandy from North London anyone?

ah yes I see. My casual commentary is a fairly new thing. I usually have a backing track a bit like this

Ankle Injuries - an MTB road trip

Or perhaps just trail sounds like this

LoPro - Morzine memories

Hope you like them.
