Fresh Goods Friday

Apologies in advance for any USA pricing. Hannah is on holiday and can't figure out how to get UK websites to display on her laptop.

I would write a slightly longer introduction to this week's FGF but... the sun's out. I'm off out on my bike to ride all the trails that have been off-limits-soggy…

What is it with March? It seems like it’s someone’s birthday every day. Well, obviously it is someone’s birthday every day, every day. But you know what I mean. Don’t…

Although the pesky wall calendar may claim that it's not spring until March 27th or something ri-dic-u-lous, we've already spotted bluebell shoots er, shooting up.

This week saw Singletrack head back to the office. For the first time since The Before Times, we were pretty much all in the building for one day.

Are you familiar with that meme of the 'This Is Fine' cartoon dog calmly drinking from a mug whilst its house is burning down all around it?

There’s a fun thread on the Forum (though it’s not thread of the week, soz) about bikes you wish brands would make. After the recent flurry of giant wheeled trail…

Another Friday is upon us. After another week of digital trials and tribulations. Here's a rundown of what the beautiful rogue's gallery of couriers and posties has cobbed at us…

You may have noticed the Singletrackworld homepage looked a bit different yesterday. This was due to the new issue of the magazine coming out.

After a strangely traffic-heavy tarmac week on singletrackworld.com it’s nice to head into the weekend planning our big weekend off-road rides. Most of us here are lucky enough to be…

Ben said: Can someone with a functioning mind write an intro pls? So you’ve got Hannah’s ramblings… April Parker, I wonder where she is now, and if she’s distressed today?…

We believe implicitly that it’s Friday and the goods are fresh, though it could be Saturday by the time you are reading this, and perhaps you have seen the goods…

This week’s Fresh Goods Friday is brought to you by Dr Seuss. Not really. It’s brought to you by several Singletrackworld staffers who are ensconced in different levels of fleece…

What tyres for a ploughed field? What mountain bike tyres for mostly road use? Is there such a thing as a mudguard with a built in mud scraper? Why aren’t…

We have been repeatedly assured that no cheeky trails have been ridden and that no rules were broken. That is what we have been repeatedly assured. All trails were sanctioned…

You may find that the music in this week’s edition causes neck injuries. Please undertake some gentle warm up exercises before going full mosh. It’s started. We are in it.…

Maybe *some* of us need to get out and ride a bike more. Luckily, Hannah is in the office all by herself so no one is around to endure her…

This is a warm and fuzzy Fresh Goods Friday – good vibes all round, as you lot kindly donated over £1000 to World Bicycle Relief last weekend, which will get…

We’re going to assume you’re here for a little escapism and don’t want us to remind you of all the things in the news that might make you a teensy…

It’s all got a bit ping-tastic up here, so some of us are diving outside and enjoying a bike ride while we can, others have their fingers crossed for half…

It seems a long time ago now that some poor employee at Facebook HQ had to stand on a colleague’s shoulder, shimmy in through an open bathroom window, crawl through…

This Fresh Goods Friday comes to you from under a duvet. We’ve kissed goodbye to Drink Beer At Your Desk Friday and said hello to Drink Hot Chocolate Under Your…

We start this Fresh Goods Friday with sad/happy news. Sad for us, and you, but happy for Lauren. She’s been head hunted by a marketing company and lured away from…

We’ve made it through another week of mis-forecasts, warm nights, high pollen levels and it’s finally the weekend. We’re sure you all have lots planned, but if you find the…

This week while some of the STW crew had our first taste of heading back to the office, Chipps started larging it as Editor as Large – starting with a…

Finally, it appears that we can wish everyone a great weekend of bike riding in great weather. We appear to have hit the sweet spot between the assorted bonkers weather…

As that boat finally leaves that canal and heads our way – hopefully with a few bikes aboard – and you continue your search for elusive quick-links and cassettes, spare…

This week has flown by in a flurry of nettle stings, sun burn, midge bites and paper stitches. Bulk orders of midge repellent have been placed following a particularly biblical…

This week we’ve managed to fit in a house move, a haircut, and an engagement at Singletrack Virtual Towers. If we extend the family ties a little, there’s also been…

It’s all good fun here at STW Towers this week. We had Hannah’s birthday (and subsequent member discounts) though it was slightly dampened by her big birthday present not showing…

Oh god, it’s half term, we are out of practice going anywhere, the kids seem to be taking up a lot more space in the suitcase and car (their clothes…

Yes, make sure you’re enjoying every day of the summer so far, you’ve got a month before it all starts fading away. OK, OK, it’s not all bad. We know…

Do you ever set out for a ride and realise the moment you’re out the door that your legs are too tired to join you? It happens frequently to some…
