6.30 is fine with me. Weather forecast is looking reasonable by then.

Who's just got a helmet cam and was desperate to use it...Hey I recognise those concrete blocks!

You riding on Thursday?

"trying to keep the speed up going over really rough ground! "

we have roads around this way that are rougher than that lol

good looking trails tho.

ill try but its unlikely . now mrs has the new job confirmed she spends a few days a week there sorting things out . it has occurred to me that when she starts proper ill be out of a useable car so im giving a lot of thought to selling the escort and getting a fiesta

ive ridden up that a few times with my current 36.16 gear

tracking him down is proving elusive

 

[perry]

cant make thurs but ive got the use of the car for sunday . anything happening sunday ?

turns out as the mrs new job isnt as far away she wants to use her mini . so ill be more likely to get the use of the crappy french car

ive nearly amassed all the parts needed for the kona , so that should be done in a week or 2

is it too soon to post a pic of a ford anglia in the east anglia thread ?

Hey Rob,

Got to cancel tomorrow I'm afraid...My wife has a late meeting so I am on childcare duties.

Sorry :cry:

Looks like me and Kitchener then. I may have a meeting just south of Mansfield during the afternoon in which case I'll probably get there much earlier than 6.30 and have a cruise round. Much will depend on the weather to be honest.

I've just received a new front mech from Archangel. Great condition but I got the size wrong, it's 34.9 and I needed 32.4. Anyone have any shims knocking around by any chance? :?

Still at work, will be for some time so despite it being sunny outside and the bike in the car it's no riding for me today. B :evil: GGER
