Can’t see me going back as well, just need to find some 29er tubless Racing Ralphs. Anyone seen them around yet?

Anyone from this morning done this?

nother vote for the Glentress for me as well

Best bike I’ve ever owned, ridden (not ridden a big range though)

I’m thinking of selling my BFe to fund a 2nd one next year, as to use one as a thin wheeled SS and the other as it is at the moment for the summer a geared frame with a choice of fat or thin front wheel using the fat fork option.

Don’t just order one you do need to ask on here to meet up with someone and have a go on their’s if they will let you.

Where do you live?

john, what rim……holm fr???

Speedway 70mm running on a Paul 135mm disc hub

Update

With 37″ Surly Endomorph and gears to push around the extra weight

Massive mud clearance with a wide 2.55″ weirwolf fitted

First ride on the Endomorph front wheel option yesterday around the local sand dunes

but have only been able to get out for a quick blast around Rivington yesterday afternoon. It just seems to suit my style of riding perfectly.

Rivi is a good test bench for most bikes, we ride there quite a bit.

No sorry i’ve got paint to watch dry.

BTW – early spoiler – Button wins

Manchester offer a taster session for £10 for the bike and an hour on the track. Well worth it, just take 2 litres of water to drink

I run and I’m very happy with the LT’s or the EXI wolfs in winter, their great at 25psi on FLOW rims and don’t pinch flat for me.

jejames have them here for under £15 with free carriage here

Now where’s my band wagon, I’ll jump on it too

Thaks for the updates.

See you all later on for the 1pm ride, BBC internet weather says it should have cleared up by then.

Cheers for that.

I don’t mind riding in the rain, I just don’t want it to rain ALL weekend.

Border terriers are OK if you can put up with the piercing yap they have.

Male Border terriers barks are fine IMHO

Here’s another lively shot of Archie playing catch.

Border Terrier vote from me as well.

As long as you can put up with the hair loss

What about the two riders who need to get a room award?

Could be worse, you could have Mary bars with bar ends!

I can’t help my needs, anyway I’ve sold that one on.

I wonder if those from last year on the turbo trainer are “racing” this year as well

Will Saturday’s ride take in any of the course?

Why you going to be looking for the bits you’re not going to ride again…..

Not me, I’m not cheating this year

Will Saturday’s ride take in any of the course?

Here is this afternoons origainal shot

paint.net is great, look for the free to download “plug ins” as well

Never used 355’s but my Flows have never let me down.

I jammed a branch in the rear one back in Jan and pringled it just a little, my LBS trued it up and it’s been perfect ever since. It takes some knocks as well.

Try John @ justridingalong in Sheffield/internet for a good service and price

Sure am with a gang of Woollybacks.

The problem is I need to keep off the beer on the Saturday night to try and get a time of 4 hours the day afterwards.

Beer on Sunday instead and a late Monday ferry home

You could get a B&B for 2 nights for that if you shop around
