Totally Stoked - Stokes of London

[Guinessisgoodforyou]

Did a short loop up some hills into Stoke Row, turns out 46/28 (lowest of the three-cog-block) gearing is ok… but the real test will be seeing if I can labour up something more challenging.
Braking is, well, grabby best captures it
Might have to fore go the red blocks for something that isn’t terrifying on the descents lol.
Also, now with wingnuts

Gripfast wing nuts?

Ha ha! Yes, very gripfast. Plus I’ve decided my bunnyhops and barspins days are now past ; )

Mr Moore - the original owner - was clearly a very keen cyclist, as the attached (shared with permission by his family) attests. He celebrated his 90th at the weekend and was apparently quite emotional to see his bike up and running again

That is fantastic. Could you ride the bike to show Mr Moore?

I was wondering that. Will look into it. As long as he’s not in Newcastle.

Thinking off it, it would be good to ride the course Mr Moore did.

Days? I could probably do that.

I admire your sense of ambition. I might die.
