I did it for the first time at the beginning of October last year. Up Llanberis, down Rangers then Telegraph valley. Great ride. You’ll love it.

Klunk, what species of fish is that?!

But let’s not forget, it wasn’t all good…

You’re not wrong! I remember seeing a Dali exhibition in Florence when I was Interrailing. The bronze models of those leggy elephants in the picture above were amazing. The plaster casts of somebody’s anus were not.

Pushing the boundaries of stupidity.

Banana & Marmite sandwich (white bread, of course)

Whyte 19 on Y Wal, Afan

Mmmm, Victoria Sponge.

Tarts, also

*is disappointed by lack of buns*

The steepest parts of the Snowdon Llanberis path were somewhat challenging on 32t front x 36t rear earlier this year. I’m not saying that a 42t sprocket would have made all the difference, but it would have helped!

You should definitely ride The Wall to the Max, Max Wall.

There be caves in the Ardennes too – one with a boat tour!

Liege Aquarium is pretty good

I always ride rigid

Maybe you could cover your brake discs in some nice doilies? 😀

That’s ap-pawl-ing

Those Pragmasis chains are so good that the thieves will cut through your frame(s) instead. 👿

I have only a 2″ section of down tube from my Brodie Ti Holeshot left to prove it.

I popped out on the bike to pick up a Chinese meal for two earlier on. Those were junk miles.

In our house, Boxing Day is always marked as Do Nothing Day. We didn’t even bother getting dressed this one just gone. Loaf-tastic.

Tacx make a range of BB removal tools that screw into the BB axle much like the OP’s neat solution.

Well, they often do well after a Lions tour so maybe this year…

Michela Strachan

+1 Knog Blinder. Seems very solid. Not cheap though!

😀

When I’ve seen him playing the outside channels, he has linked very well with Watson. You’re right though, it’s a very young, inexperienced set of replacement backs in that England squad.

True, but lose Adam, Alun Wynn and Toby through injury and…

I would like to see Eastmond and Watson play together for England. They have been playing well for Barf.

To be fair, and I say this as a Welshman, Wales don’t exactly have a glut of talent at fly-half either.

Money talks these days. Hardly surprising given the attrition rate due to injury. Careers can be very short so it makes sense to rinse the French clubs for a few Euros whilst your knees and shoulders still work.

36 can cover 10?

Thanks all!

Going to the pub

I just can’t see any reason why an English speaker would choose to learn Welsh.

In order to speak to relatives in their native tongue?

The Light Bicycle rims are great. I ride a set laced to DT 240 hubs. I’ve also ridden Flows, but not the EX version. As I’ve no experience of the Syntace wheels, the question I’d ask is whether it’s worth spending an extra £200+ on carbon rims/bladed spokes to save less than 200g?

Plump for carbon…go on!

I must say that I really enjoyed the culture that certain nationalities have brought to Rome and Barcelona on recent trips.
How nice of them to check that my wallet was on my person and that I had not dropped it.

Never trust a Belgian!

I hope that’s a white loaf and not some foreign fruity shite.

Yeah, and don’t go making any toast with it, you hear?

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the SD-253 (Panasonic)
