Kona Fire Mountain in Edinburgh 75quid http://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/kona- ... 1086650760

Yepp, I'm keen. Looks like i'll be still on a rigid though. What time are we meeting then?

I figured from the lack of response! I was going to post in the North Englandshire area group but then fuel to Newcastel/Carlisle would probably be just as much as postage and not enough time left to organise now.

Re: Thanks for the clarification Velo! It had me confused. I started to scour the Glentress thread for a post announcing a change of date. Not being able to find one and came back "here" about to ask if i'm missed something! Thanks Stephan

If anyone is going would you be prepared to bring a frame back for me? viewtopic.php?f=2&t=298446&p=2239863#p2239863

Re: Is the Bear Vally frame still available?

Re: Got to put that in the diary! Hopefully the AA will be ready and will have had some practice runs with it. It will be my first ever bike with suspension (fork). Hopefully that will safe my wrists, even though I had to call it quits after the first 1.5h as the rear mech packed in, they...

Did you advertise the event other than on here?

Just wondering who's around? Who would fancy riding together locally road or off it. Family commitments mean i'm mostly limited to half a day max. Short notice 1-3h rides would probably suit me best. Other than Tue. afternoon/evening I should be able to do any time, (pending arrangement...

Oh dear, just logged on to remind myself which weekend this ride is, just to find it was last week rather than this weekend. Oh well… i've found it hard to justify burning all that petrol to get there anyway. Good to read you enjoyed yourselfs.

Anyone tried it? Not that i'm super fond of that stem but it does not bother me. If it does not work I will to source a 150mm reach 22.2 quill stem that can run cantos… and this time of year i'd rather be out riding than trawling the net for such a thing.

It's a 1990 courier comp with the wishbone seat stays (I'll put up some pics later). It does have two braze ons at the rear drop outs (one for mudguards one for a rack I thought) which made me choose it over a Marin I was also thinking to buy. I love the looks of the funky seat stay design but...

Any of this have large sections (as in 7-8 miles and longer in one stretch) completely traffic free? Crossing the odd road would be acceptable but not cycling along a road for more than a couple of meter literally or more than 100-200m segregated but right next to a busy road. Always on the...

Re: I'm afraid I have given up on ever being fit enough to do a century. And that would be without the hills in the borders. Just a question why did you not cylc along the Canal tow path? Must be so much more pleasant without the cars. Bad surface? Big D-tour?

Just spotted a poster at the local Grocer yesterday. Anyone coming down for this? http://www.selkirkmtbmarathon.com I'm no where near fit enough but if they had a retro/all rigid category i might just be tempted to enter the 25miles just to see if I could last it.

I did make it albite without the family who decided to have a rest day after a very busy week. the meeting at the meadows was impressive with a dense cue of cyclist stretching across and then around as far as i could see but once at parliament the crowd looked relatively small. I took a few min...

Re: Bump, it's tomorrow, and the weather Looks OK too. :D Hope i'll actually get there! Some time after posting this I was reminded that it's my eldest Birthday :oops: so it's up to him now :!: Unfortunately he has not been to keen on going cycling recently.

8) Great Stuff!
