12 degree Ti handlebars for the Pact, to replace the Loops. I'm hoping this is the sweep angle I've been looking for. I'll weigh them, fit them, then pass on my experience with them.

Gorgeous...

Yesterday PM came and dropped an 01 Hario v60 cone filter thingy. Just like Shauns and I've finally realised they come in other sizes than the 02 (and realised what the 02 actually represents)

Ooh nice bling Scotroutes

Liking those bars

Got a sea to summit folding mug so I can #resistthedangle

Well not actually the postman as I picked them up in Stratford, getting ready for the next Bivvy, proper #gravelw@nker coffee kit and very posh beans

Spaffed on some TRP levers and received them today.

Very fondallable (sp?) components

And delivered some goodies from wildcat, a 3 hole wide strapdeck and mounts along with a de widget and double dangler

Lomo waterproof MTB gloves
Lomo 2l dry bag
Good value as always

A lovely pair of XR2's for the Procaliber and a Elite custom race bottle cages as the carbon bontrager ones got to a point where they were wearing through bottles on rides 3yrs is all they lasted, cheers posty

Jeez, where do I start...

Arcteryx wind shirt - been wanting one for years!

Arcteryx shorts - finally worn out a my previous pair that are 6 years

Running stuff for the wifey

And finally
One ‘lego’ set has arrived, two weeks late but it’s an articulated lorry, so should keep me out of mischief for a few nights Maybe linger is mini-voodoo wants to help

Splashed out as I hopefully will be getting a newish iron horse soon!

(Feeling flush,(even though being paid peanuts) got two temporary jobs sorting parcels for two courier companies in the early mornings)

3 primal tops,a pair of MTB shorts and a MTB hoodie*

* I won't be breakdancing or caterpillering any time soon!

This new jersey came today from the US. I won a comp in a FB group for a photo and received a $100 voucher for a cycle jersey shop.
Its got a bike, panniers, front bar bag, tent, a big moon and a pitch with a view. There's nothing else on the jersey....

There's nothing else on the jersey....

But there is a fire, made from disposable BBQs - how could you?

I'm more concerned by the tyres, don't look wider than 2.1

And since we're being picky I've never managed to prop my bike up just by leaning the front wheel against a tree. Clever if you've got the knack of it I expect.

edit: oh and I wouldn't be using a bungee to lash gear onto the rack. Have someone's eye out.

edit edit: so: blazing inferno, bungees, badly parked bike. The whole damn jersey just hasn't been properly risk assessed has it really?

Spurcycle bell and a new hybrid bike my wife purchased. (Spent more time admiring the bell it’s gorgeous )

This week the posman has delivered:

Smart Sam 700x42c (That it has been confirmed DOES fit in the Escapade frame; so another has been ordered )

Hope 11 speed Shimano freehub body to replace the Campag one that came off to enable the convertion to a SRAM 1x setup.

11 Speed chain (see above)

Hose ends & compression glands so I can shorten the new brake hoses.

Alpkit Soloist - just because!

I know, I'm just making it worse now
