And today I did......

[RobMac]

This bike stuff is too much like hard work and im spending too much on it :?
It really isnt going to work for me. Said this before i know but i just cant continue and seemingly getting little out of it. I hardly even ride and other than streets theres nowhere to ride. And im non driver so normal trips are out too.

Just spent in the region of 800 turning the Ti purple and im thinking :? For what :??
I think 8 years is long enough.

I thought you were jacking in the whole bike thing?

There's why I asked you.

I've had my sternum cut and it takes 6 to 8 weeks to heal, I'm just into week 5 now.

Looks like that's a loada sh1te its 6 to 8 week for the outside to heal, some folk are still in pain/discomfort after 12 months even two years some times :shock:

Jeezus Rob, I couldnae face that thought, I'd need tae make maself believe that it'll be sooner rather than later.

Remember you're no jist "some folk". Whit wid Chuck Norris tell ye?

Oh right.

No, id spent that but not finished and was questioning how much i was spending for the benefits gained :? and would something else benefit more.
Buy boat, cycle to a few of times week , gets out house, builds appetite, fitness level. Feel better live longer
Just cycling is a bit of a regime :? need commitment to that too i suppose

Or just build shite

And ride it.

I have no shame.

Re:

The more I see of Frank the more I like it which is just aswell.

Today I got back from oop north in the land of Epicyclo and Jamie D. Twas fandabulous and I feel inspired to get out and ride. I got to ride Epicyclo's Hub geared titanium wonder bike. Super comfy and perfect for gravel riding. Bike companies planning a gravel bike should consult Brian (Epicyclo) before wasting their time with ill coceived ideas, he knows how it should be done. As usual Jamie swore blind he was unfit and way below par before leaving Brian and me for dead on every climb on his ss bike despite me having 8 gears and featherweight bike. Jamie is an epic fibber so when he actually believes he's fit then look out world !

I whole heartily recommend a run with Brian and Jamie on their northern turf. Just dont expect to get where your going quickly or even vaguely to a schedule

You would certainly build up an appetite and get fit cycling to and from Skye.

Re: Re:

Today I've decided I need to thin the herd out a wee bit as I've got a few builds nearing completion and I'm sure you'll agree a part assembled bike take up less space than a built one. So when I finish my new builds I'm not gonna be able to swing a cat :?
So I thought what bike am I using the least at the moment, so the wining answer is????? The Ragley Blue Pig (except its black innit) so I'll be sticking the frame up for sale real soon (its a 18" frame BTW) I wish I had the space to keep all of my bikes but I don't, sadly.

What the hells wrong with me I'm struggling to bring my self to dismantle the Pig
