Fresh Goods Friday

As we all know, today is Twelfth Night. That's right, the coming of the Epiphany. More importantly, have bin collections resumed properly yet?

Have you been out riding every day, making the best use of every day off? Are you back at work already? Did you not even stop for Christmas? Or are…

Are we nearly there yet? A none more familiar family-er cry during long journeys. In this instance it's not a car trip though...

It's the middle of December and things are already beginning to slow down in the world of Fresh Goods. BUT... here it is: FGF Episode 683!

Kudos to everyone out there who is still mountain biking. Don't hang up your boots yet! December is a difficult month to keep on keeping on.

Is it even December? My [Hannah] kids think it is because they are opening their advent calendars. I do not have an advent calendar (Although really, the Wera Tools one…

Drool on this way, peruse the goods, and then head for the door. Make sure you've got some change, just in case there's cake.

Please stop girding your loins for it is here: the six hundred and seventy ninth edition of Fresh Goods Friday!

What is the most bored you have ever been?

Chandler Bing, Halloween, Bonfire Night and Editor's Choice arguments. That's what this week has been about for us lot here at STW HQ.

Do the clocks change this weekend? It feels like they do round about now. Hang on a sec...

Welcome one and all to the six hundred and seventy fifth installment of Fresh Goods Friday.

Happy Rampage Day earthlets! Or Unhappy Rampage Day if you're not keen on the event.

Merry October to you and and all! We shall do our best to keep your mountain biking stoke levels as high as is feasible.

Anyways, whatever your cherry picker of choice, enjoy this week's Fresh Goods Friday!

We ain't gots time to shilly shally. Nor even dilly dally. We gots to jump straight into this week's Fresh Goods Friday!

Hannah says: Science? Heck. I’ve barely recovered from the scientific calculator last week. I can’t do science, or at least not numbers based science stuff. Graphs especially. It’s like a…

Saddle up and pack your pony because it's time for this week's majestic Fresh Goods Friday!

Happy August Bank Holiday people! We hope you're doing something nice and that the weather plays ball.

Iiiiiit’s FRIDAY! And no matter how often it rolls around and how predictable it is, you’re never quite sure that it’ll actually arrive until it does, all casual Friday-style and…

While we all wait for the World Championship racing to kick-off up in Fort William, let's take a few moments to enjoy FGF!

After a series of tentative moves followed by capitalising on a fumble, Bon Jovi has made it through the wrestling ring of musical tastes.

It's Red Bull Hardline weekend! And it's looking like it might be a terrifyingly wet one. Good luck to all the racers giving it their best.

Hannah says: Living with an American is an endless source of lingual anomalies. My latest observations are around their curious deployment of French. A piece of fish without bones? I…

Hannah here, fresh from a podcast recording which has left me full of beans and bike enthusiasm. Assuming I haven’t screwed up the technical side of recording, you should get…

New Schwalbe tyres and a new Aphex Twin tune! Truly it feels like Xmas in Benji's domain this week.

Hannah says: I have a conundrum of the most modern and first world variety. I need to decide what to do with my name when I get married next week.…

In many* ways, Fresh Goods Friday is like a Downhill World Cup.

I (Amanda) have spent all week recovering from the Jennride. Not physically, but mentally, as it’s quite hard going from a sunny social Lake District adventure to being, as far…

Benji is out on a hill with bikes. So is Amanda. Charlie is on holiday. This video was already in here, so it means something to someone but I (Hannah)…

That's right, The Mascara Snake, fast and bulbous. Bulbous also tapered? That's right. Certainly when it comes to carbon enduro bikes at least.

Some of us have been roadtrippin'. Some of us are still out there roadtrippin'. Some of us are merely plottin' some roadtrippin'. How about you? Are you thinkin' o' 'trippin'?

Regardless of where you stand on the whole divine right to rule over a nation of subjects whilst wearing a really heavy bling-bling hat, we can all agree that an…

FGF is often a series of photos of bad modelling, so it seems in keeping to share some wedding dress shopping nonsense.

Hello, good evening and welcome to this week’s Eff Gee Eff. It must be evening somewhere, right? We’ve been struggling for instrospiration this week, possibly due to motivation being carried…

Enough with the chocolate, it's time for everyone's favourite end-of-the-week shiny bits showcase: Fresh Goods Friday!

Let’s start out with something approaching normal service… For the CNC and skate nerds, it’s kinda cool, but also seems like a vest waste of metal. Beware the wormhole that…

Mmm… Pentax 645. Benji wrote that, and then went on holiday. So who knows? What sort of ‘Mmm’ is it? Perhaps it’s a ‘Mmm’ of the variety you give to…

It is, inexplicably, Friday again. The longest fastest week to date. Are we sliding ever faster, reaching terminal velocity, and then about to hit British Summer Time? Hopefully it’s like…

Let’s be truly British and talk about the weather, eh? It seems that no sooner have you been given a glimpse of spring than it all goes bonkers again and…

It’s been mixed up week here at STW Towers, mostly thanks to everyone suddenly realising they haven’t used up their annual leave so they’d better take some time off. We…

We hope you're not struggling too much with the absence of baby plum tomatoes in your packed lunch, or pepper sticks to dip in your hummus.

This is the shintro... coming at you like a BMX shark bite pedal at your 1980s shins.

This is the tintro... eerily reminiscent of the pewtero but a bit more silvery. What? No idea. We're just riffing here.

This in the 'kin-tro... A bit like the flippin-tro but just that little bit coarser. Because we all just want to go out and ride our ATBs today, let's dive…
