    Always wondered if Dyfi has enough space to hold a WC race. Anyone been who could confirm?

    Just wanted to throw a quick thank you to @lunge who very kindly sorted me a pair of his old trainers for a fiver last year when I started dabbling in parkruns and some running. Since then I’ve done numerous parkruns, a 10k, a half marathon, and as of yesterday my first marathon in Manchester. Managed it in 4:04, really wanted to go sub 4, but had a rotten cold all week and heart rate flew up to 175 right out the gate and I couldn’t hold my desired pace after mile 20.

    Slept terribly and really struggling to walk, but already looking for another marathon to get sub 4!

    Thanks again Lunge, you’ve caused no end of pain for me by sorting me those Nikes!

    Me and a mate did last nights evening uplift at Dirt Farm, and its gone straight in as one of my favorite spots. 100% worth a visit, and probably within an hour of BPW I guess?

    I had some Tektro Orion 4 piston come on my new bike last year. They were awful and lacked any power or feel. Tried pads and numerous bleeds, in the end binned them off for some guides

    Weeksy, you can get little plastic clips that go on the reach adjusters on the levers that take up the slack. I think they are called deslackinators but I could be wrong. My mate gave me some of his spares and they seem pretty good.

    I think I might be the exception to most people, however I really couldn’t get on with it. My mate lent me his 27.5 wheel to try and I couldn’t notice any benefit and I was casing jumps id normally clear every time in Greno. Pedalled back to the car after an hour and stuck my 29″ back in.
