I thought the world had ended because the afternoon was creeping by and there was no FGF.

All is well, and it is lovely to be reminded of Nick Drake. An LP of covers of his songs is due in early July.

 

Love the new cover!

Is there going to be a review of the handguards? Having broken my pinky finger twice and bruised it on bushes more times than I care to remember I’m tempted. The big trouble is they are a bit to endurobro and that’s putting me off.

Norco have somehow managed to make a bright green bike boring to look at,  I can’t explain why but it’s so uninviting and bland to me.

Revgrip hand guards £80, gloves with great protection £30, £50 left for the post ride beers and burgers, now which should I go for?

Oooh! That Rab pillow looks interesting.

@gavalar what about those of us who really don’t like riding in gloves? 🥊🥊😁

@ben_haworth Is the sealant any good please?

@bikesandboots Yep. My sealant of choice pretty much. Will probably get some sort of honourable mention in my Editor’s Choice 2023 stuff.
