Hi groovers. My mate has broken his front suspension forks and is looking for a replacement! Can anyone help!? The original is from a TREK XCALIBER 29 but open to an ideas......Thanks so much. Max

Hi groovers....has anyone got a decent front light they would like to pass on. My 12 year old is wanting to join me for a few pre school rides before everyone else wakes up! I have an exposure that I got off here a couple of years ago and would be after something similar for him....

Excellent film. V inspiring !

They're all pairs but I recall 3 are 'joined pairs' and the other 2 pairs can be used separately ... if that makes sense. Yep, capacity would be roughly 20l per side or maybe a touch more. They're all Cordura type material so offer a degree of waterproofness but none are fully waterproof. I'd pack ...

Okay, search successful. I've found five pairs. All appear to be around 40l capacity give or take a couple. £48 delivered for the lot ... winner takes all :wink: Hi Stu, Sounds great - couple of questions from my wife! Are they "doubles" or can you take one at a time? What make are they? ...

I reckon I've got some that I lent out to DoE. How many sets do you want?

Hello again - back to the hunt of panniers again! Stu did you have any joy with seeing how many panniers you had?

Thanks. M

My son has an Alpkit 13l bar bag and a 2.7l Ortlieb saddle pack on his bike. Those work well and are not that pricey either. They are a lot lighter than racks and panniers. The Ortlieb pack works well on a younger person's bike as it has a bracket fitting under the saddle which holds it still and h...

Thanks - will address that!!

This may be a daft (and possibly insulting) question but...
you do have racks on the bikes?

No...sorry - I have nothing - am starting from scratch - are fittings universal?
Thanks for pointing out as well though! I am tired!!

Stu you are a star!! We are a family of 5 so up to 5 "pairs" would be amazing depending on how many you have!? Are they individuals or pairs etc..Just let me know what remuneration / details you need!? Would they fit on adult and child bikes alike? m

HI Groovers, we are thinking of doing a bit of family overnight rides and was wondering if any of you lovely folk have any panniers you would like to off load - also any advice on what I should be looking for would be greatly received. The idea is to go for a few days at a time maybe mixing camping ...

Happy New Year groovers.

Hi Groovers, Had been doing really up up until a couple of weeks ago - too many socials / not enough riding put me back in place (as in put on 5lb in a month!)! The goal is to lose 2lb a week until Christmas - Surely I can focus and make it happen! Time to get back on the straight and narrow again! ...

Hi Groovers, How windy is it!!!! Going for a lunch ride in a bit and think I may take a sail with me for part of the route!! Still on the slimming world and G&T diet! Seems to be doing the job!

Gave up on trying to up my weight the healthy way. Realised last night that I was about 750kcal off where I needed to be, so I drove to McDonalds. It worked, I'm a kg up over yesterday. :lol: User avatar Richard G Up 1 Kg - that works out at about 8 Quarter Pounders doesn't it!!?? Either that or a ...

Hi Groovers, Hope your knee improves moderdye. Weight loss will def come again soon gairym after that ride and fasting...how can it not? Been on bike a bit more this week and on slimming world...

Hi groovers, This week: 231lb So a grand loss of 5 lb in last few weeks,(have missed a few weigh ins!) which I am chuffed with! Been on bike more doing longer easier rides. Have also realised I am eating too much!! So for last few days have had weetabix and fruit for breakfast and lunch and a normal...

Hi Stu,

Awaiting with fingers crossed! M

Two large gins, two pints of cider...ice in the cider!
