A week after the WRT my favourite event of the year. I managed to find some mojo and went out for a bike ride this morning.thanks Stuart and Dee, another great event and perfect weather. The only downside was the midges on Saturday evening forcing us to our tents earlier than normal. I'm so glad I t...

Faffing with my 29er+ using Aeroe spider rack with 3 brackets and a Wildcat front harness to find the perfect packrafting and bike packing set up. I ordered 2 more straps and another dry bag from ALPKIT, when they arrive I think I have the perfect set up. I'll be doing a test ride and paddle before ...

If anyone fancies signing up and doing a packrafting version of the JennRide 2025 gravel route with 3 of us please let me know Our route will follow the gravel route (of sorts). It will be half the length, half the climbing, but four times more paddling with 5 times more transition faffing on route....

Could drop the seat to help make it a small
For the record if it helps, with the saddle at this height as shown in the photos I'm 5'7" with a 31" inside leg

Would that fit you?

Anyone from here heading to the Wynnstay tomorrow night for a pint?
If so please don't forget that they don't do food any more, so eat beforehand

Yeh, I don't think my plan A choice of a summer bag will cut it now, so it's winter bag

Thanks for the replies - apparently there are two sizes made: " Double Edge comes in two sizes, 19/15 inch seat tubes and 21/17 inch seat tubes" Would you mind waving a tape at it John? I'm guessing it's the smaller from the photos and info about your wife. Hi Al and Chris 2 posts down Be...

How short do you think the stoker could be? (Thinking of the boy) This is the first photo I took before I raised the saddle for the photo. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54475222954_49c7f22bf7_b.jpg The wife is 5ft 4" This is a close up showing how much lower the suspension seat post woul...

Fingers crossed that the forecasted high pressure, with dry and warm weather stays over Bear Bones Towers and the surrounding area for next weekend.

72.8kg. But in real money ..... Today is the first time since I was in my teens that I'm under 11 and a half stones. 11 stone 6.5lbs From being almost 14 stone this time last year. Finding it easy to maintain this weight too. The real benefit is that I've not felt this strong on a bike for 25 years ...

I'm enjoy using the Aeroe Front Spider rack at present, keeping the weigh lower and less faffing around with the handle bars. I'll have it on at the WRT if you are there and want to take a look. https://aeroe.com/products/spider-front-rack?srsltid=AfmBOopsRZYe-cRfrGdrEA89_801VRcHi_wPWV2pZ8ya6dtlxvvn...
