A few bits of Thomson loveliness for the new build and a pair of bib shorts to see what the fuss is all about.

'E's been to Leeds finally. New cranks for my CX bike, now I just need to fit the rest of the cobbled-together drivetrain and add cables and bar tape.

That'd be great, but don't expect it to snow now that I have a fat bike and a beard.

:) It's funny how this happens, I've coached dozens of people who now wear knee pads 'after the event' ... inc' the bloke who managed to just about remove his entire knee cap at the Dyfi enduro a few years ago :shock:

Mind you don't get the knee pads caught on the pointy wings of that bottle cage, you might have an accident ;)

If its the bloke I'm thinking of I was behind him when it happened, he slit it open on a bit of slate. It was very nasty, from memory you could see his kneecap! :o

K-Lights USB charger with 2 x 4 cell chargers arrived to day go with my PV-8 hub which I just picked up from Tim at Sideways. Looks really well made and great value for money. Looking at Kerry's Facebook site though this may be one of the last ones of production line. In the future he is going to advice people to use a Kemo so he can concentrate on light production.
