Three weeks!??! :shock: :shock:

3 on .... 1 off ...3 on ...1 off

 

[Grannygrinder]

What tackle?

I'm trying to decide which of the tools to bring. What sort of terrain am I going to encounter? Anybody seen a long range forecast?
I think the Proflex is going to be ready but on the other hand i'd like to give the Rocky mountain a run out.But then I am quite keen to build up the Prestige for an offroad outing as a sort off make or break as the seat tube is "fragile". Any opinions as always valued.

Does Sheldon know he's going to be riding with a group of bike hippies on 15yr old machines?

I rode with him (once) last year and he seemed like a bit of a 'gear head' to me (in the nicest possible way )

I think he's going to find us highly amusing

DUDE...

I find me highly amusing,he'll probably find me under a table!!!
