I don't know why tbh then Steve got me thinking about a fat bike too, damn him

I just want a do it all HT really to ride when I don't need the big travel full suss

Yes I guess a 29er would be best, really miss my old 456 with 140mm revs perhaps I should just get one of those again??

It's because I'm a polar bear

You are right, only got my Zesty at the moment hankering after a hard tail as I sold my Swift last year as didn't get the use out of it. Thinking of getting a 650b when the 2014 bikes are released.

I'm going to stick my neck out and go balls out I'm in for my return to the fold :shock: You've got Steve to thank for this and reigniting my need to bivvi by giving me my 2012 WRT T-shirt and the need to catch up with old friends :D Hmmm I may need to build/procure a HT for this lark again :geek:

I'm doomed with all the BB events I tell thee, 2 years ago before the first BB200 I bust my knee so helped out Stu and Dee which was ace at BBHQ. Then every subsequent year I have been unable to attend due to other things family hols etc I will be back one day

I've been using pads from here for past 2 years and have been great, cheap too

I haven't had an ACL reconstruction yet but I did have a major knee injury last year, ripped my knee cap off :? and echo the advice above follow your physio's advice to the letter, it helped me massively and I am back running and riding better than ever, but still have a major mojo issues off road w...

To get out with you guys in 2013' just want to forget 2012 for a number of reasons. Also really sort my weight/fitness out Build a 456 long travel hard tail again, I miss that bike. Get my eldest daughter out on the trails, I think she has the confidence for it one :D Get the spaniel trail running a...

looking good, no idea where Taylor is going

gutted I was double booked this year, oh well hopefully will make it next year in some shape or form.

I hope the leaders have learnt their lesson from last year Stu/Dee

don't know if these will help?? I have a pair of salsa fargo v2 29er forks for sale same as these. http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/salsa-fargo-v2-29er-fork---great-for-anything-cages-1382-p.asp What's special about them is they are professionally sprayed in RAL5014 which is Swift blue by an auto...

sold - thinking a fat bike maybe fun

don't fret Steve I'm not stopping Back packing just family life seems to be getting in the way of things, just don't see the point having this sat in the garage not being used, better of someone else has this epic bike imho.

I hate selling bikes but I am just not using this and I am getting into triathlons so thinking it's a waste for it to stay in the garage plus I need a TT bike soon. I will keep my bike packing kit don't worry, but I can't justify having this bike, I have used it twice in past 12 months :cry: I'll ju...

same as FF but I have a couple of Sea to Summit ones as I liked the green colour

just get a petrol one like Steve's it was a vaguely exciting display of flame

sounds vaguely exciting maybe I could wangle this with the wife visiting family up there

Hope all the way for me, keep it British

here's all the badge you need

gutted :( I had to miss this so close to home too

Glad you made it Steve, hoping I can call in and see you this week at some point for a catch up

a few of us have had frame bags from Jon in the past 18 months he's been making them for a while.

Really well made and bomb proof but not the lightest but perfect for my needs really

It's going to be a no show for me I have to pick up my DAd from the Preseli hills early Monday morning so I cant attend.

On the bright side I was out on the bike last night for the first time in an age and it felt vaguely exciting

OK I can remember where that was I think

I will confirm plans later in the week

I'm a maybe on this now as the wife is out for the day (GGrrr) hoping she'll be back in time so I can get to the White Hart for 4pm, if not were else can I meet you all?

Do we have a bivvy site in mind??
