    Surely it should be the Ferrari 250 GTB BreadVan?!

    Can be used as a BBQ and smoker too….

    Still not sure I’m selling it to myself though!

    Didn’t say I wanted to pay that much!!

    Just a nice design compared to the usual outdoor pizza/bread oven ones

    As long as it takes for the vibration going through it to not hurt!

    Currently got a broken thumb, they gave me a plastic splint to keep the thumb straight. Been riding after 2 weeks, got another 2 of the twelve left! Just have to use the palm of the hand for dropper!!

    If it’s anything but clear at the top and there’s plenty of snow about, navigating even the tourist path is tricky.
    If it’s covered in snow and you try and follow the footsteps you’re getting very close to rather big overhangs and cliff faces!
    I’ve been up in December in nearly white-out conditions at the top, and trying to navigate around is near-impossible. Not one of my brightest moves

    Breakfast down at Clintonstreet Bakery or Pastrami in Katz Deli (Reuben Sandwich = superb)

    Walk over Brooklyn Bridge from Brooklyn side to Manhattan, short walk to WorldTrade. Or Pick up the water taxi that goes around the Statue of Liberty and drops you off right by the start of the Highline walk, good pizza at Artichokes about halfway along the route!

    Pick up a hire bike and do the 6mile loop of CentralPark, Walk down Fifth Avenue. Easy to pop into Rockefeller or Empire State if you want a rooftop view.

    If you already have a subway day pass get it back to the airport! Much, much cheaper than a taxi!!

    Stato – Which copy mount do you have of the Capture, as £50 odd is a bit excessive!

    Seat Rail mount, or Chest mount give a good field of vision.

    Trying to fashion a mount down on the rear stay to avoid foot strikes but point forward at the moment

    Doing the same,

    Cat 6 for Internet to every room, and to the back of all TVs. Then run a spare two to the back of each TV point and all back to a central area. Can then not only have wired Internet for devices in every room, but can use the dual Cat6 to put HDMI signal over. Means you can then have a centralised Sky/Audio/NAS etc to every TV

    The idea of having al this wired for me anyway, was that the wifi is then free to just be used as personal Internet use and possibly SONOS, also means you are permenantly connected for devices and not reliant on your wifi strength

    Rome definitely.

    Worked out cheaper than Paris or Venice. Also has the STW approval of having superb coffee every 50yds

    Also have a 3.2 DSG, great car if you don’t mind the fuel. Averaged about 32mpg on a steady run to Scotland but more like high 20s normally.

    Sounds great though, DSG box is nice and smooth and was comfy as for the 400mile trip to Fort William. Just make sure it selects all gears with the paddles or in semi-auto. Mine had the MechatronicUnit already replaced and came with the £2.5k receipt!!

    Also had that at the finish. After sprinting out the last section, then have to stand for 10mins to get through the gate!

    Have booked on again though as it was an enjoyable route and a good event if riding as a group!

    Quessed it might not be the brand new model, but was tempted when they were £80, so worth a shot at £60!

    Kask Mojito £59.99 on Rutland Cycling, £15 cheaper than CRC

    Cheers fenred, exactly what size I was looking for info on!

    Spesh Boomslangs here. Much more grip than the superstar Nanos that they replaced.
    Taken a bashing too, hardly any noticeable damage other than a bit of anodising despite a lot of rock strikes whilst getting used to a lower BB!

    I was looking for around a £800ish bike, the one that was pretty high up the list was the Canyon Endurance AL 6.0 for £799
    https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/road/endurace/2016/endurace-al-6-0.html

    or next one up at £1049, but the AL6.0 has all I’m looking for and fairly light, 11s and 105 group-set

    Anyway to find out what the discounts will be?

    Had great deals from lightning offers before, especially on Garmin products!

    Charges an iPhone from 0-100% at least four if not five times on one full charge. Also has a display showing percentage of charge left.
    Bought one a couple of months ago and been used every week since, worked faultlessly!
    Also has two USB outs so two items can be charged at once. Enough battery power to do two full ipad charges so should be ideal for a iPhone and camera

    Were £25 on SportPursuit a couple of weeks ago, don’t know if they still have them

    Deacthalon 700 MTB undershorts at £15 seem pretty good for the under 2hours rides I’ve tried them on. Also not shiny lycra, whcih is a bonus as undershorts!

    V2 Scandal with the Tapered headset, no sure on stack height but top is near zero!

    Are the orange and blue pads the same? Just a different breathable mesh on the blue insert (720)

    Love that Genesis frame, would be a great replacement for my 26″ Core frame. But they still have a 27.2 seattube, annoying as for finding a dropper!

    Which model are you looking at the Clubmans or Pro-Line 365? Only have Large stock no Mediums?

    Looks like a great effort so far.

    Good Luck for the rest, following on Strava

    Use them to make Hot sauce or chilli jam! Easier to use then than a whole chilli
