I've read good reviews of these:

I've found these trails that seem quite close to Funchal (no need for car/van transfer)

I need few tips.

I'm off to Madeira in few weeks mostly for hiking, but was also considering renting MTBs for a day and ride some XC (I am a total MTB noob).
It sort of bothers me paying for a guide that tells me what to do and where to go, is there a way I could source some trails info and map it on my Garmin to be more independent? I had a look on RWGPS (my go to for road cycling) but all I could find was very generic (confusing between hiking trails and mtb trails).

Any idea?

I'm scared by that thread.. I'll ask

Where can I get knives sharpened north-east of the river?

Charlie are everywhere!

But seriously, @7Üp where did you fit the rifle on the bike?

Lovely time of the year to be out riding, did London to Brighton on the usual route west of the M23, not many riders, and overall quiet traffic as well despite the late hour I set off. Two months without proper rides were considerably felt on the legs by the end of it. Load of pheasants..

I'm after an Iphone SE in case anyone is getting rid of it to upgrade to the 7

Good condition please

I liked it a lot. Wanna try them all

Unrelated, I'm finally going to Lisbon for the first time in my life this weekend, if you have any good tips for seafood,typical,local and street food just send them this way, thanks :)

Was in Vilnius last Saturday, had dinner here with friends: http://www.lokys.lt/en/about_us

Very much recommended, good menu based on game and typical dishes.
Had venison steak with cepes and baked apples.

do like a lot.

Wonder how much would that set my bank account back

This looks epic! Gutted I'll be in Lisbon (not so gutted tbh)

Lovely frame!

Tell me! Following their updates on Facebook is one of the most painful things ever, almost as much as working..

I have the same gxp as above, canal between the two. That's the most straightforward, easy and quick route.

However, as @Lieven_De_Vlaminck was saying, it's boring beyond imagination. It's good if you needto do Ghent/Bruges in the quickest time possible, but if you're touring I'd avoid it hands down.

A couple of friends are doing this:

This looks so beautiful!

Really?

This beats it: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/381405047818?lpid=122&chn=ps&adgroupid=28306099746&rlsatarget=pla-184492172946&adtype=pla&poi=&googleloc=9041110&device=c&campaignid=628859225&crdt=0

Could you share route files?

I stupidly took a temporary second job - aka no time to ride anymore until November.

I am so regretting this!

Just in case you haven't heard of it yet:

#CycleToWorkDay

More frustration than good vibes actually.

They are in the shopping cart right now, don't forget salt blocks!
