Sorry - I have to call off... can't do this I'm afraid. May be at Maypole for beers though....

Hey-on the london to cambridge ride-may well be up for that, or at least maypole for beers! I did that London to cam sportive thing on my genesis flyer a few years ago, but was ss-think 46:17or16, so quite spinny. Is a nice ride-quite a few hills, nothing severe of course.

Def not me then, sorry! Funny-not seen those lægers around here much! Understand they Are all over landan tho;-)

Sorry! Replying to posts back in March! Only just discovered this section! Yep - most likely me: remember handing in an APU textbook that I found lying in the street! (good citizen award to me;-). The Lager is in bits now... jammed seatpost being given caustic soda treatment. Gonna rebuild with spares and use it as a winter hack. Perfectly ok bike, but frame bit heavy IMO.

Could be Martin... "Moomin" on here

Light blue and brown frame (didn't see what it was) with blue rims and brown bullhorn bars outside the SU shop at ARU, was riding past on my purple conversion as you were locking it up.

Oh great - glad I posted here now, for sure - I'll PM you now.

Thanks - very useful info. The rear spacing is 120mm. May well be interested in the chainset - is it pretty much the same as the one in the link? What length were the cranks? Reason I ask is that I was thinking of going to 165mm...

Hey,

I have a leader 722TS that I need a BB and chainset for.

Was thinking of this Token BB

http://www.velodromeshop.net/index.php?p=product&id=1920

and this Token chainset

http://www.velodromeshop.net/index.php?p=product&id=1423

Pretty sure it'll fit the BB shell, but was wondering about spindle length - will it be ok at 103mm?

Sorry - pretty new to this - don't want to end up buying things that don't work...

Anyone go any views on the Token BB/Chainset?

Cheers

Great ride tonite - thanks for planning that Tom. Fairly long one - with the ride to work this morning, done about 40miles today - not bad for a working day, men;-).

Allowing for the couple of stops we took, that was fairly quick, too - this route was one of my favorite rides yet: great countryside, amazing weather and superb hilly route - I'm no descender (lost the bottle for that in my old age;-), but think I hit well over 30mph - you guys probably a bit quicker.

Hope a few more people come along now the weather has picked up! Be amazing to get back to the days where there were 20+ of us!;-)

...and yes - 7 at t'Pole sounds good;-)

Oh - and gears all good! Sure you will destroy me though!

Hey Hey! def up for a ride tomorrow - Hills please, if you guys are up for it;-). I'm thinking Limekiln and the run out towards Fulbourn - there are also some nice roads around Carlton and West Wratting, though we are pushing out quite far then...

See you there! Just chilling in our flat in Denmark, drinking coffee and watching Le Tour at the mo! Life is good! Especially with the lead Wiggo has;-) Just hoping for no surprises...

I´ll be at the Maypole at just after 7, if anyone wants to ride on Wednesday this week (18th)

Hey - yep - will be along - MUST change my front tyre though - it's totally shot. Already arranged to meet Ric at the pole to get a new one. May have to borrow your petit pump again;-).

Hey. Anyone up for riding tomorrow? Once again, I've totally failed to plan a route, but would happily do the same as yo planned last time, TA. Gonna shoot by Maypole around 6.30ish.

Oh yeah - think the idea of slapping a few spoke cards in the fG/SS parked around town is a good one - just give the link to this thread. They'll get ignored by loadsa 'Too Kewl For Skewl' hipsters, but may spark some interest...

Longbow Apaches, Low flying cargo plane and bumping into that time trial - very good ride - pity we lost 1/3rd of our party so early on! like that Endomondo ap (or whatever it's called). Don't wanna get all 'Victor Mature' about rides, but reckon if we post a route before the ride commences on here (as you did, TA - Cheers for that), everyone could check it, and know roughly where we're going. IF more people do start riding again, that is.... Anyway, great to catch up, mate.

See ya there! I'm prob gonna be a bit earlier, 'cos caught a puncture this morning, and only had a (really bad) tiny giant pump - JUST made it to 70 PSI. Gonna drop by the Ambulance and borrow one of Ric n Andy's floor pumps....

I'll scoot by between 6.30/7.00 tomorrow;-) Still no route planned, but sure we'll manage. Unfortunately, won't be around next week, 'cos in Denmark - should be able to do the wek after though.

I can't make much earlier than say 5.30 this Thurs - how does that fit with you guys? I Haven't planned any route yet, but wanna hit the gogs - I know how to get out there pretty quickly from the Maypole, but it's not a very interesting route (just through town, down hill's road towards Addenbrooke's...)

Anyone got any alternative ideas/routes that maybe catch what few hills we have around these parts? No way I'm gonna have time by this Thursday, but want to get a few routes onto map my ride.

Hey. Chatting with Arthur last Thursday at the Maypole... ... Anyone up for riding again soon? Good weather we've had so far this spring. I don't know the routes so well, but can have a look into planning some over the next week or so... We obviously need to know where we're going.... Unless anyone else wants to 'lead' us, of course...

Martin

I spied you in Milton earlier, crossing the A10 after I had a nose round the tip!

Yea doing good, same old tho really, more madness at work, nothing new there!
(Hoping to go full time tog in the summer, bookings are coming in, we shall see!)

Hope you continue to get plenty of work - guess summer's good 'cos of the weddings;-). I'm in Denmark pretty much every other weekend at the mo, but will def check out bike polo and hopefully get on a ride or two soon now the snow's stopped!

I always seem to bump into people I know at tip! Milton (and its pubs) are a regular haunt of mine;-).M.

OK! will have to try again;-) Hope you've been keeping OK (it's Martin here, BTW - guy with the Blue SE Lager purchase from Ric n Andy).

Hey - Looks great. Was gonna drop by yesterday, but couldn't find the entrance! ended up at the maypole though so not all bad;-).

Yeah - kinda whaat I was thinking. Not a bad frame to ride - just heavy!

Thanks for the info on frame material.
