Just posting a shout-out for @Binners following me contacting him via this thread... He has designed, printed and framed a stunning picture for an anniversary present.

From a few holiday snaps he managed to create something quite stunning which I had the pleasure of collecting from him last week and spending a pleasant 30 minutes chatting all things bikes with him in the sunshine (socially distant of course).

Highly recommended, thanks mate.

Cheers @chrisbucko. It was an absolute pleasure to do that for you. I hope you don't mind me sharing the image. Chris sent me his holiday pics, which looked bloody great, so I distilled it all down into this image of himself and his wife kayaking up the Yukon River in Canada.

This was printed at 80 x 60cm and looks great all framed up at that scale (even if I do say so myself)

I'd just like to say a huge thank you to everybody who got in touch and commissioned designs. I've never been busier. It's been a full-time job. Which is just well as the usual day job has been history since March and won't be back any time soon. No furlough for us freelancers either so this has literally been a lifeline.

I'm working my way through a list and still have a couple to do for folk on here. So I can't thank the STW community enough. And thanks again to Chipps for putting this thread up. I've really enjoyed doing illustrations for you all as you're an adventurous lot, so I've had loads of really nice locations to draw up, and added to my list of places I need to go

@singletrackmind I must say I am loving your beer. I find myself getting quite fussy on bottled beers and yours is superb. Just ordering more. Cheers!

Hi All,

I'm a bit late to the STW lockdown party but better late than never...!

Like Singletrack I'm based in "sunny" Calderfornia and offer MTB guiding and skills instruction as Whoosh Mountain Biking. Skills courses are generally here in Hebden Bridge or at Lee Quarry and I have routes all over the North of England including the Peak, Dales, Lakes, Lancashire Moors, and elsewhere in Yorkshire.

One-to-ones have been back for a few weeks and I'm now able to take bookings for small groups so please get in touch if you want to set something up.

Thanks for the great thread idea Chipps, cheers,

Chris @ WhooshMTB

Just fitted some new wider wheels on your car and they are rubbing? Give me a shout. Mobile service, we come to you. I'm the South London guy but will travel if fuel costs are covered.

And if you've got some nice trails nearby let me know, I'll throw the bike in and we can go for a ride after! Double bouns!!

We are, hopefully, about to set up a whole new thing soon - just waiting to relocate, but if I can pop a wee link in here that would be smashing! My job has shuddered to an unnatural conclusion so we are heading north to set up a mini glamping site just a couple of miles from Lochness (providing our sale and purchase all go through over the next few weeks).

As well as glamping we are going to be offering commercial photography services throughout the Highlands, photography workshops and tours plus very probably historical/archaeological tours of Northern Scotland too. We won't be fully operational this side of Spring 2021 I don't think, other than commercial photography and 1:1 workshops/photography lessons but if any of that sounds interesting keep an eye on our website.

We are in that excited and scared phase just now!

If you could add in mtb guiding, escorted hill walks, supported whwiad or 2 or 3 trips plus some cultural or local stuffi think you could do ok bit late for 2020 but gives ypu months to get the rest of the site sorted.
Good luck, keep us all informed

Great thread and I've already contacted a couple of people about their skills - next on the list is Binners as I love the idea of the prints and the moments they capture.

Unfortunately my day to day work can't really offer anything interesting but, I enjoy tinkering with car stereos and installing aftermarket kit.

If anybody wants any advice on stereos please feel free to message me - not expecting anything for it.

Maybe a bit late now that summer is almost over, but the recent "quiet camping" thread got me thinking. I have lovely flat secluded field in the middle of the Black Mountains which I sometimes let small groups camp on. I always offer exclusive use for whoever books it first, no matter on group size. There are a pair of compost loos, a cold shower :-), a large fire pit, and a small river with a pool to (almost) swim in. It is a 1 km walk across fields to a ruined abbey and 2 pubs. We are 5 miles from the Black Mountains Cycle Center and have fantastic MTB riding straight from the door. I am happy to help point people to the best trails in the area and can provide gpx routes if wanted. We are a dark sky area and absolute silence is guaranteed at night (though you may have to share the field with some curious sheep!). Just to be clear, there is zero mobile signal or wifi! Despite that we are only 10 miles from the motorway system and about 45 minutes from the Severn Bridge. I charge £6 pppn. All dates are available for the rest of year, apart from the upcoming Bank Holiday. Just drop me a PM on this forum and I will try and help.

Can you give a postcode please?

I'm on the ceiling at the moment and need a break, your offering might be a more sensible alternative to wild camping. It sounds like heaven right now.

@Cougar

Google Llanthony Priory. We are a couple of fields away

Edit: Sounds like heaven? Sounds more like a hurricane at the moment lol

Loving your work there @flannol!

And thank you, everyone, for your kind words about my 'work' (it never feels like 'work')

Can I just say again a huge thank you to everyone who's commissioned big prints. I feel flattered and honoured that you've trusted me to draw up such personal images. I've absolutely loved doing them. I've had some fantastic subject matter. You're an interesting and discerning lot.

I'll share this one with you because sometimes you get an absolute gift. I was supplied with a few photos, one of which was of the couple jumping up in the air, which just had to be the focal point. The rest is a geographical mash-up, which seem to have become the most popular type of illustration. I do love a bit of geographical vandalism, me 🙂

So in this image, we've got the couple (this was a present for his better half), the Newlands Corner (Surrey Wildlife Trust) View, Brussels Grand Place, the New York Skyline, The Eiffel Tower, a cricket match, a mountain biker (obviously!), a bee and a detectorist. Oh... and a flamingo. I loved doing this. I think its a joyous thing. A celebration of life. Printed at 1 metre wide and framed it looks fantastic.

We have worked out that we consume 2kg of Coffi Eryri ( https://coffieryri.cymru/  - found on this thread) every six weeks - consequence of working from home, two people x two coffees per day.

Works out pretty cheap if compared with getting coffee shop coffee - and I realised just how good it is the other day when I picked up a coffee shop coffee on one of my rare forays out and was sorely disappointed. I guess I’ve got used to the good stuff...

@terrahawk

Tried to DM you. Can get your profile page, but cannot message.

Anyway, can you DM me please.

I could be interested in your other half's tax/accounting/bookeeping services.

Ta.
