Shimano am40 shoes.Always used to think that they were no better than skate shoes.How wrong was I.

Kenda nevegal 2.3 on the front,maxxis ardent 2.25 rear. Run well but will try a minion 2.5 3c when the nev wears out though .

Well done that lad.[bet he’s off to burger king to celebrate] 🙂

Any town up the coast of cumbria is pretty depressing. Barrow,askam,millom,Whitehaven ,Workington
Egromont the list goes on ………..

Started out raving as a spotty 17year old at the carlton in morecambe on a friday night in 91.For the next 10 years I went to some of the best clubs in the north of England.Hacienda,,bowlers(manchester),angles(burnly),empire(morecambe),maximes,wigan pier(wigan)love shack(blackpool),feel(preston),orbit(morly),back to basics,up your ronson(leeds)gatecrasher(sheffield).Good times.Looking back I’ve probably had more drugs pass through my hands than a line manager at glaxo 8O.Do I regret those times ?.No,not at all.Esp. since I met my wife on bowlers car park 16 years ago and were still happily married.

Biking home from work this afternoon came across three dear in a field.Nice to see.Get the feeling spring is just around the corner.

Start a 12hr shift at 6am tomorrow so I’ll be up at 4:30am to do a 14 mile ride before I start.Don’t HAVE to,because I only live 3 miles away from where I work.I must be mad.Anyway,night night,I’ve got to be up early 😆

Here’s my dog, Rogue:


And when he was 10 weeks old

Moved to flats after 7 years of spds (cb malletts)about 2 years ago.I always thought spds was a far superior way to pedal until I gave decent flats a go (wellego mg1’s).Now moved to am40 shoes from vans and the difference is even smaller.

Have a look at the tentigers workout in the build bigger muscles section on the mens health forum (stop sniggering).Really good workout esp. if your just starting out.Word of warning though,make sure you are lifting the freeweights correctly or you could do yourself a mischief.

Mostly the lakes for me.Even though I live 45mins-1hr away by car.

Said to anyone who is overweight:
When you put on your belt do you use a boomerang ?

Paramo gear for me and the good wife.Jackets,pants and baselayers,you name it,we’ve got it. 🙂

Took my 19 month old rhodesian ridgeback out for the first time round gisburn on a monday morning couple of weeks ago.Normaly ride in the lakes but decided on gisburn because of the lack of road work involed so I didn’t have to worry about carying a lead.He was a bit giddy to start with but soon settled down.Took the 18km red and black route in his stride.As other people above have said you are best waiting until they have fully developed before you start putting the miles in.

Just got back from 3 hours of brazilian jiu-jitsu training.Tired,very tired.

Did someone mention ridgeback ?
Also like english bull terriers.As said above very cute in a ugly type way.Very headstrong though,not a good idea to get one if your a first time dog owner.

Thanks for all the advice.A pair of nukeproof warheads 760mm have been ordered.

If you just want to do walna scar i would suggest setting off from torver,up onto broughton moor,stephenson ground,cracking decent down to seathwaite followed by a long climb up to the top of walna scar.then it’s downhill all the way 😀

Tour of coniston finnishing off with one of the best decents in the lakes,walna scar.

kettlebells fwiw

Cousin was a hedge fund manager.Left uni and started work in the city at 30.Retired at 44.Judging by the size of his house [sorry,mansion]in witshire it’s quite well paid. 8O.

Pair of oakley split jackets for me.

Waiting on a Bos Stoy Shock.Ohh-nice what’s it going on?.Always fancied one for my nomad.

Poopsies-RE BJJ.Could not agree more 😉

Like a orange 5,Only better 😉

Cheese and jam butties.Food of the gods.

Kilo-omg some top tunes on that cd:
King b
Kid and play
Young mc
The list goes on !

Got hope pro 2’s on 5.1 rims for rocky lakes riding and there gashh.More softer than walter the softy in the beano 😆

They do come up small though.Normaly take a size 11 but went for a 12 and it fits me perfect.Only £53 at wiggle btw.

Kids cartoons 1982-1990

Sorry to hear your bad news.Just remember to keep talking to friends and family.Take it from me,Bottling feelings up over things like this is never a good idea.

Ok thanks.Will try them with the inserts in for a start.

SC carbon nomad with bos forks and shock,easton carbon wheels and other bling.The cost? – only £8700.Now,what six numbers should I choose for wednesday. 😆

Cycling and brazilian jiu-jitsu for me.

Chase vodka for me.Not to many though,riding tomorrow.

Andy.W- It’s my name.
BJJ- The other sport I enjoy doing,a martial art called Brazilian jui-jitsu.

Crikey- 😆

If I was going to use them just for biking then the radars would get the nod but captain cash says I can’t afford two pairs. 😥

Your bush needs trimming.

Biketreks for me even though it’s 44 miles from me.Why?.The excellent customer service.A good example was when I had issues with my lyric 2 steps (no suprise there then) which was on the sc nomad I bought off them.Phoned them up and they said no problem,bring them in and we’ll send them off to be repaired under warranty.Five minutes later keith Phoned back and said he was visting his sister who lives nearby to me so to save me the trip upto ambleside he would pick them up and when fixed drop them off at my front door. 8)

Recently got a smart lunur 1 watt rear light.Bloomin eck it’s bright!.Only about £16 in the sales at the mo.Also I think it’s a good idea to have a light on you,be it on your helmet or rucksack.If for whatever reason you become “detached” from your bike(fixing a puncture or,god forbid,coming off) car drivers will hopfully still see both you and your bike.
