Trails are fepping awesome at the minute locally. it’s fab. Had such a good ride last night.

Meanwhile, tonight we’re off to the Dales for Feb’s bivvy. We seem to be packing mostly fig rolls so far.

3rd place on my single speed debut and the tubeless tyres prepared by me worked with no drama.

I'm broken

Yeah about 8 I think plus retro and fat. Beat all the retro and fat. Passed most of the woman's field and caught the back of fun male :-)

How vulgar. Love the SS. Probably dry enough to ride it round here at the moment.

Have broken myself bikepacking. But had the most awesome cloud inversion this morning so don’t care

Back from a little play in the warmth, so good to feel sun on the back warming my back as I climb a bastard of a hill.

I may need new pedals as one of the pair I bought about 25 years ago is failing to grip and the cleat seems to flopping about, checked the cleat and that is secure.. There is a new pair in the spares box somewhere, just hope the pedals come off easily after about 10 years on the cranks.

Might be worth changing your cleats first to check, Dai. I’ve found that loose feeling often indicates worn cleats. Though saying that, I suspect you’re overdue a set of pedals ;-)

Since the last appearance of Kaph, some time ago... there are now three wheel sizes, and now new plus (+) tyres for the even more adventurous!

26 / 27.5 (650b) / 29 / 27.5+ (650b+) / 29+ / fat
whatever you ride, enjoy it :)

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
