Not sure if they have all the sizes though

I DO need a Gilet and black Classic J.
Damn it...

I could do with a gilet too, what size will you be getting? Medium?

^I have LS jersey and don't like it.
Smells bad after one ride. I don't have that problem with classic jersey somehow.
Fabric feels very cheap, despite claimed merino content it feels and performs like polyester.

^^^no you don't
you already got a wardrobe full of rapha

i can't find any info on their website...
anyone got a link?

my beater got stolen couple of hours ago from somewhere around east acton
it wasn't locked, my boyfriend took it for quick ride, he was standing next to it and talking to someone when somehow discussion turned into a proper fight (long story) and when my boyfriend turned around to get the bike it was already gone
the bike was a piece of shit, create frame and wheels and some random bits,
shit bike but very useful to me as i was using it to get around shops and whenever i needed to leave bike locked for longer
hope that someone will spot it somewhere

A friend spotted someone riding my bike yesterday morning around east acton station on Henchman street, same street it's been stolen from.
Anyone commuting around there?
It's so ugly that it's hard to miss it.

nice lavoro, i almost placed a bid on that but then read some comments on here about those frames being very uncomfortable on the road

Arriving with ‘helmet hair’ stopped 27 per cent of women from cycling, while 19 per cent said they wouldn’t want their work colleagues to see them without make-up.

Up and running...

Over in Brentford:

I suspect the slight difference could be attributed to the gigabit network and that I run Linux.

Damn, i'm not even getting a quarter of that and i'm in shepherds bush.

I'm so tired of calling virgin and spending hours on the phone trying to sort it out...

can't find another source now but I heard this before

http://trainright.com/chris-carmichael-blog-does-sweating-more-mean-youre-more-fit/

That is true. I have experienced it on myself.
Few years ago i wasn't sweating at all, maybe just a tiny bit of sweat under the armpits.
I wasn't excercising much. Just a bit of run or sometimes gym.

Then i started swimming and cycling, riding a bike everyday and swiming few times a week.
From someone who was always cold and wearing few layers of clothes i turned into someone who rides in a jersey and shorts all year round and breaks a sweat after couple of minutes of excercising.
It looks silly sometimes, covered in an even layer of sweat only after short ride to work like if i just had finished a marathon on a hot summer day. No dry spot on a jersey.

My body reacts this way whenever i do something demanding just a bit
of physical activity like hoovering etc.

Plus side is that i usually stay warm when people around me complain on being cold.

I guess that's how your friends body works as well. Putting him on some 20kg pashley won't do much difference.

Ah ......yum yum the Lamb burger was to die for ! :-)

you mean beef? that's what you were eating...

Chef is not new, he's been there for a while.
And yeah, he makes awesome burgers.

^^^use your maggot jacket:)

i'm alright in merino hoodie and baselayer, it's not that cold

nice collection of bikes and bits
group buy?:)

It always feels much colder in the park than outside of it.

What has he done wrong apart from giving shit advice on bikes?

^^^ yep, he doesn't deserve all that bullying

Actually a wrap is really good.

It's (by it's nature) expandable, far more so than a saddlebag.
And when you need to use it you can lay your bits out on the cloth instead of loosing them in the grassy verge.

It's a bit of a fiddle, but not if you've perfected it over the years like the vets I see still doing it.

I like the idea of the roll. Got 2 in my tool box:) I like the look of them on the vintage bike.
My comment on the rapha design was mostly due to the fact that it doesn't have any compartments inside. It's nice when you roll it out and everything stays in the right place.
Rapha tool roll would make me frustrated each time i'd have to take something out of it.

I keep all my tools in the jersey too.

Wicksie, you can have a tool roll from a fiver in a diy shop. Some of them look actually quite nice. Add some extra straps if you need.
