Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

That does sound interesting.

Bike show one done. Some cracking examples of misogyny from the 1970s on display as well as shiny things.

And no matter how we think the world is changing, it's bloody slow. At one point while Joolze was talking to some bloke she's known for years I was idly counting the number of women I could see. Four. Six if you included us. 33 blokes.

The world has a long way to go... until we stop seeing ads that talk about how you can buy this bike without the missus finding out, etc. We’re absolutely not there.

Took my new Specialized Enduro for a spin around Cannock today. Really enjoyed it :) unlike the drive home after I hit something bouncing across the M6 and now need a new bumper :(

I know a few people with the Enduro - they all love it.

Sorry to hear about the bumper :-(

Gah to needing a new bumper. Odd week here so very little riding. Just calculating the cost of new drive chain in spring after the mud 😂

Don't know if Halford has still got the 12 speed Eagle GX on offer but with a BC discount it was only £280. Don't need a new drive train yet but at that price it was rude not to :)

What a bargain. And if you go through Quidco, Get a bit of cash back too, no doubt...?

Oooh looking forward to the results then...!

I’m in Seattle. Booked on a MTB tour today. Bit nervous as the other person booked on the tour apparently is also into XC and ‘likes climbing’ :-O.

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
