Thank you, Phil

Was looking back in the thread as was sure I'd seen something but when/how do we confirm whether 200 or 300 route?

I'd highly recommend the wahoo element roam. Links to kamoot and ride with GPS, loads come up on eBay and has links to a database of base maps. Garmin etrex 20 as well. Thanks-Have you had any experience of the original Elemnt at all and whether it would still be useable- I think ones are about 7 o...

I'm looking to upgrade my sleep system after a bloody cold night in the mountain just after the strata river section on last weekend's BB200 I used tarp/bivvy with 3 season cheaper sleeping bag. I got a decent mat last year which has made a huge difference already from previous trips. I am a side sl...

Very good, Stu I arrived thinking I knew what to expect after five previous bb200, the last one achieving that elusive black badge. What transpired was a massive reality check fighting the terrain, weather and the clock clock and scraping a green😁 Thank you to Dee and yourself for organising this ex...

That was a good one in 2018

Met a fellow boner on my Transatlantic way enent in June and rode with him for a while, for the life of me I'm embarrassed to say I can't remember his name, fatigue does bad things for the mind

I always wear boner shirt for the big events

I'm just a grumpy, cynical auld feck though. I'm trying not to be ...... it's hard :wink: There are plenty of riders who have very little idea/skill/confidence in route planning This is the trouble. No one is born with the ability to do this, it's something which needs a little practice and in real...

I might have a red22 hydraulic shifter as one of mine failed and have the other left, pretty sure it's for right side I have, will check

Been thinking of upgrading to roam V2 myself, currently have original Elemnt which has been flawless and simple to use.

It lasts a good 200km road ride battery wise.

I'd be happy to sell so I can trade up

I got the XL and after a few uses decided it was too big for me, so got the normal one.

Shame, I'm looking to go the other way!

I've signed up

Absolutely agree with that from my own experiences!

Second weekend for me, contemplating 300 this time if friends don't sign up

Have a great day, Stu!

Mine too

The key difference with Paris Brest Paris to almost anything else I/we do is the crowds lining the whole 1200km route, kids wanting to high five you after two days if not washing your hands, locals in villages running free food stalls in the middle of the night, being cheered on for the hero you wi...

@dyffers and @flyingpig - do you both have qualifying rides from 2022 that will allow you to pre-register? I haven't ridden an audax since London-edinburgh-London in 2007, but am hoping there are some spaces left once registration officially opens in June. Got my first SR qualifier (a 200k) booked ...

Thank you, was looking for a wheel set after breaking a rear, ridiculous discount!!

Well done to all that took part and if you completed, superb!

Nice charity earnings Shaf, impressive

I did 2019, will aim for this year to ride it with the knowledge gained from the last one subject to completing all of the qualification rides.

Happy New Year to you all, may 23 be full of wonderful adventure with some level of jeopardy thrown in.

Thank you Stu and Dee for this corner of the internet, in an ever sanitised world we need you more than ever

I bailed my FFF500 in one attempt after 300km yesterday, by then I had done 200km straight into a strong and cold wind and I wasn't properly recovered from a bad cold so enough was enough.

There's lways next year!

Good on you raising money doing it, gives an extra impetus too.

I'm doing the full fat festive 500 Audax on 29 the 29th Bristol Cambridge and back. Gets it done in one hit which I've always found best!
