Thanks, good to know it's safe parking. I might give it a go over next couple of weeks. I also have shorter route that could be completed in a day.

Hi
Looking to do overnighter based on BB 2015 route. Just wondering if anyone knows if it's ok to leave my van over night at this car park next to public toilets.

Stooge moto bar is the one. 800mm, 38mm rise and 17degree backsweep...so comfy.

Hi I have Singular Rooster Large (yellow) with set of wheels that you messaged me about earlier. I'm currently in the process of stripping it to just frame and fork. It would come with hope headset too. If you give me a week or so I will give it a good clean and check and can send some photos. Here ...

hi

clearing my garage and have found two 11 speed cassettes.
Both are 11-42 and brand new in packaging. One is microshift and the other one is brand x.
Shimano HG freehub.


£18 posted for each

Hi I have set of black Hope pro 4 hubs non boost on Halo Vapour 50 (45mm internal). I used to run them on my Surly Krampus with 3inch tyres.
I think rear needs new bearings but front is good. I could dig them out and sent you some pics. I will let them go cheap.

Hi All, I have Genesis Day One Large/58cm rolling chassis/almost complete bike. Included are: frame, fork, headset, cranks, stem, drop handlebars and Alfine 8 wheels with Schwalbe Landcuiser tyres and bar end shifter. I can see if I still have saddle and seatpost. It needs some attention as headset,...

Hi Colour Black - size XL £50 posted first class signed for Nice jersey and works in wide range of temperatures with arm warmers or base layers. Worn once, fits me but just slightly to tight(race fit) for me. I'm 6'1" and 90KG. Can email pictures on request. It's one like this https://www.tredz...

Another vote for Pirelli Gravel M. I have tried a lot of tyres and Pirelli have been the best.

Thanks all, some good options there. I like to get to places by train but would be difficult to plan this as really not sure how long it will take me to complete Lakeland 200. Two days is optimistic, three more realistic. I'm not far off the route west of Keswick if anything goes pear-shaped and yo...

Most importantly weather is looking good Saturday/Sunday

I'm bringing my rigid Singular Rooster. Didn't feel like braving it on gravel bike.

Don't want to start new topic.
Looking to attempt Lakeland 200 next month. It will be midweek. Where would be best to park my van up for 2days around start in Staveley ?
Thanks

So far plans are

Traws Eryri in April
Tor Divide in May
Scotland (probably Badger Divide) in June
South Downs + Easbourne to London in July

I'm after 2x 29+ tyres for my Singular Rooster. I'm probably going to get Maxxis Rekon 2.8 for £47 each end.
Are these Vittoria any good for all year round mtb riding ? £33 seems good price for plus tyres.

Hi sent you PM

I have tried a few different lights over the years but Exposure has never let me down.
My 6years old Maxx D can still do 24hrs on low setting.

Still for sale if anyone wants it. I'm tent person and also now have hammock to try out for overnighters so bivvy needs to go.

Brand new never used £38 posted
