    Yep, when Lance came up to tell the young Martin how it was in the peloton, he just said f*** off.

    Martin was in a different league, that’s all. 1.14% is a good margin at elite level.

    I don’t think much will happen to be honest, he represents such a tiny minority. As usual the papers like something to sink their teeth into. On one page they are banging on about the success of British cycling then on another page they are attacking it’s grass roots.

    A few narrow minded stuck up nimby’s who want the roads clear for their Lambo’s and Chelsea tractors won’t change anything.

    Chunky a few questions with regards your Avenger.

    Ive a cannondale flash alloy but thinking of going for the Avenger and banging my lefty (white) on it. Was your lefty originally a white model with it having the white clamp areas?

    Also whats the weight with the kit you have on it?…I run pretty similar spec including saddle

    It’s a Carbon DLR, so the black is just the bare carbon. The white clamps were standard on this issue.

    I’ve no idea of the weight, I’m guessing about 20lbs?

    But the 5 deep crowds in Farnham and Guildford this weekend show that the NIMBYs who are raising this petition are massively outnumbered by those who like to see cycling on their home streets.

    This.

    Mine is a Carbonal Avenger 19″ (I’m 5’11 with 32″ inside leg)

    I ordered it on a Tuesday and it arrived the following Monday, no charge on mine. Mine was a lot cheaper than they are now.

    Well packed and it took about 15 mins to actually unwrap the frame. Everything was faced and the frame is dead straight (unlike some expensive brands I’ve had before).

    The internal cable routing is superb and no rattle whatsoever. Luckily my Hope hub provides enough warning of my approach. This thing is silent.

    Easy to deal with. Got some carbon road wheels recently. They are spot on.

    Set up some automatic searches on ebay (frame, parts etc). Keep an eye on gumtree.
