    my dream would be to have a nice big place in the alps, id spend the majority of time out there skiing in winter riding in summer, but also kayaking, walking, climbing, paragliding… id take the odd fortnight holiday to my boat in the Adriatic, and maybe have an NYC apartment for the odd long weekend…

    i was mighty impressed with Kirkby Lonsdale for a mucky weekend. lovely little town to wander around, loads of nice pubs and a couple of quality boutique B&B’s. Also loads more strenuous activities locally if you’re inclined….

    met Stephen Graham at a party once in early noughties, i was being a bit of pissed up nuisance and just kept saying ‘d’ya like dags?’ so i got that combo stare long before milky did…

    Stephen Graham being carried up them stairs was an incredible scene, but the highlight for me was the one at Woody’s parents house. in fact Woody’s parents, and Jennifer were my favorite characters throughout! Jennifer’s emotion at getting told she wouldnt be bridesmaid was impressive, then on a lighter note, her outfit at the wedding was hilarious!!

    My mates on his 3rd or 4th shifter with the same issue. Then again another mate has had zero problems. Seems shimano changed the cam wheel design at some point, with a little guide to keep the cable in the groove.

    Happened to me in the lakes yesterday. Managed to get the cover off, free the cable and out back together but happened again. Ride over. Was only it’s 2nd or 3rd outing but the first with any real climbing.

    I’ve got a 32t AB one. Put it straight on a new bike. Should have tested on my old one really to give a fair comparison. But I bloody love it on the new one, or it might be the bike…?

    Dunno much about roadies but my father in law subscribes to the winter/summer bike theory. I imagine his full carbon campag’d up winter bike is better than most peoples main bike, but his main bike is a custom built titanium effort, with carbon everything. he wont go out on that until he knows it hasnt rained for days incase there are puddles!

    freak.

    i only mtb and have a HT alongside my full suss for when its particularly grim and boggy – but that could be any time of year!

    same format as the PMBA i think. Sunday only, 10 miles, praccy in the morning, race in the avo. 250 max entries to make sure everyone gets round before dark!

    i really fancy it having never ridden dyfi before. weather could be pretty bleak by then tho…

    never read the books so know nowt about the historical accuracies but saw the film the other night at london IMAX. the film is a fantastic spectacle rather than a good movie, especially in 3d on that screen! very impressive.

    my dog is called Larry David aka Larry, LD, Lar, Laz, Lazza

    ive noticed an increase in dogs called Dave or John on the parks lately.

    best to name him after a favourite character or historical figure.

    Kessler was my 2nd choice, after the American Werewolf.

    i hate having my haircut. its akin to visiting the dentist.

    i dont want to waste any of my precious weekend having it cut either so i have to do at a lunchtime during the week which means central london prices. I go to a Turk in Clerkenwell, £25 includes haircut, shave & hot towels, they always do a satisfactory job and best of all, no effing chit chat! i pay for silence.

    got a 10l and a 16l evoc, one evoc bladder and one karrimor one that was £8 in sports direct!

    i like the style of evocs, the simplicity. the Ospreys and Camelbaks are all too muhammad im ard bruce lee, with the funny shapes and fancy bells straps & whistles.

    +1 Narcos. effing amazing.

    You need to give her a slap about Breaking Bad tho, she will be hooked in an instant and thanking you for ever. watch all that then watch Better Call Saul.

    ive been watching The League too, that is pretty funny but i binged a bit too much and got sick of it… likewise Always Sunny.

    Also, if you want something a bit lighter, they recently stuck up a few series of Still Game – I pmsl at that!

    Peaky Blinders.

    yeah they are pretty hideous, but the whole point of them is the longer top tube to remedy the complaints of every single bronson 1 owners except girls and/or children, so gotta go B2!

    I’ve done every other round but just didn’t fancy this when they announced it for some reason, guess I was hoping for an exciting new venue? Also had ard rock and K&q lately so didn’t enter. Bloody wish I was now tho!
