Not exactly! Somewhere else on this board is my ad for an iPhone 3g 16gb for £100.

Sold, thanks James. Anybody want an iphone?

Time waster means phone available once more.

Sorry, sold now.

As it's name suggests, the basic Tacx trainer with digital controller and readout for speed, cadence and power.

Winter is coming, so grab a chance to keep warm in the garage whilst its cold outside!

£100 collected from London W4

Refurbished with new screen and home button. Nice Chrome bezel so from the front it's like new. Usual wear marks to the back but no cracks or chips, so that's good too. Sold with new connector lead and charger.

!00GBP (curse this american keyboard) posted recorded delivery or collect from London W4.

It's an Audax Sanchez - it's supposed to rain for at least most of the ride...

That's the spirit! Actually as I write, the forecast seems to be improving; not too cold, mostly dry with showers around midday/early afternoon and a tailwind home. I'd settle for that!

Regardless, I've changed the approach to Richmond Park, as per my email to riders last night. This allows the Arrivee (that's Audax for, um, arrival point) to be moved to a pub on the approach to the Park equipped with beer garden marquee, food and beer(!) when the Roehampton Gate cafe closes at 6:00. Basically, if you're not finished by 5:30, stop at the pub! I don't anticipate too many complaints. If you haven't received the email don't fret, there will be a handout with details in the morning.

See you then, Paul

There is free parking at start and finish points. Personally I'd park at the finish point (roehampton gate cafe, richmond park), and ride round to the start point which is about a mile down the road.

It was about £100 I think, maybe up to £150 this year!

Lee will cost circa £200 in 2013 but this is an all in price including food and cots which were extra last time. Good value at ~£40 a day.

I'm sure the fixed massive will not need to sweat. Though they may feel a trifle warm at times...

Friend want to know if his bastardised Pacific is audax-legal, told him it's fine, right?

The Pacific sure looks interesting, I've never seen one of those before. But for a summer 200 you can ride most anything really.

The Wimbledon Tea Rooms (google it) are in Wimbledon Common, just over the A3 from Richmond Park. Royal Parks charge for events though finishing in the park isn't a problem, so we end at the Roehampton gate cafe, which make a great destination point. There is free parking by the Wimbledon Tea Rooms and in Richmond Park, though I'd like to think most riders will arrive by bike. Riding from home down to the coast and back is just sooo satisfying.

Hi Chaps, coming up for last orders. Be there or be somewhere else....

for a 100k ride from london to the south coast, what ratio would you advise, riding fixed

If you're thinking of riding to Brighton then there are lumpy bits that require a little focus but nothing uber steep. The rest of the route rolls along quite nicely. Checkout the route profile on the The Ditchling Devil. The first lump is Woodmansterne/Chipstead, the second Turners Hill and the third is Ditchling Beacon. If 100km is a big step up in terms of distance then it may be worth adding a tooth, but really the simplest advice is to ride what you are used to riding and don't sweat it to much if you find yourself walking 100m of a hill. Depending on fitness, I've taken everything between 68" and 79"

Hi Guys, a note to let you know the London Ditchling Devil is on June 10th this year.

LOCOG bagged our weekend from last year to open the Olympics(!) so we relocated to June 10, the weekend before the BHF London2Brighton event as it happens. So if you’ve missed the entry for the BHF event then this is the event for you!

The Ditchling Devil is a 200km round trip from London to the Brighton via Ditchling Beacon and The Devils Dyke. We start outside the Windmill Tearooms, Wimbledon Common between 7-8am and finish in Richmond Park at the Roehampton Gate Café with refreshment controls Ardingly (50km) and Upper Beeding (110km) and Chiddingfold (150km). This is a great route through rolling countryside with the odd bump but entirely fixable. Something around 70" is fine; works for me!

If you haven’t ridden an Audax event before – or even heard of Audax – the Ditchling Devil is a sort of organized ‘day tour’, a bit more organised than the Dunwich Dynamo but more relaxed than a Sportive.. We provide a detailed routesheet and GPX track for those with GPS, and controls & refreshment points round the route. It’s definitely not a race though there is an overall time limit around of around 13.5 hours for an accredited finish for those that want (hey, we want to go home sometime!). Most get round in 10~12 hours overall but if you want to stop off at Brighton, wherever, that’s fine too. Having a great day out is the name of the game.

See http://tinyurl.com/85nxvpu for a review of last years event.

Online entry is £11 for AUK/CTC members, £13 for others, and includes detailed routesheet, GPX track and refreshments.

Entry details are at http://www.aukweb.net/events/detail/12-888/ or PM me directly.

A trip to the coast, riding from home and back, is always a blast.

It's a London thing.

I'm after a cheap pair of studded winter tyres for occasional winter commuting purposes. Marathon Winters would be fine but I'm open to suggestions.

Fair comment El_D except... I didn't realise the LFGSS massive is VAT registered. I'm certainly not and if these bibs were available for 25 squid on eBay I wouldn't have paid 69.99 for them at CRC. FWIW on eBay they are mostly listing at 75 (69.99 plus postage, I guess). Anyway, thanks guys for killing my listing here, time to head over to eBay.

Y'think? I guess that rather depends on whether you believe 600km is a long way. For me it's two day's riding.

Worn twice, washed twice. That's it, really.

High end endura bibshorts with funky double layer textile and insert.

Had two outings, about 600km, but too big for me ( that's what pbp does for you ).

£69.99 from CRC or £50.00 from me.
