You know the lane with the white boots right if youre a Chippenham rider :D

Dont live in corsham now but will be up to do our fave ride at some time with some little gems

Good choice you will not be disapointed :-)

How on earth can you call people in the forest wearing strange clothes and riding strange bikes wierd :-)

Where in wilts was that i have had similar experiences in Wilts over the years :-)

I always find if i send a route via mm it transfers fine to the 705 but when you view it as a map or try to follow it it has tried to recalculate using the street nav software and just comes up completely useless sending back and forward all over the place !
Now if i plan a track it seems to go in fine i spoke to garmin but they didn't really know why the files were not working

Oh yeah sorry i missed that in the original post the Swift is certainly not scaffold its all day sweet sweet sweet :D

Thats strange to hear that, i have never wieghed my swift but i cerainly dont think its a heavy bike ,I have been told its suprisingly light ('for a big wheeler')
It doesn't feel heavy but if having a lightweight bike that kicks you in the arse and doesn't handle well is better than a heavier bike that rides like a dream and handles superbly then thats a choice to make as a buyer i suppose

Don't know yet :roll:

Dave Gorman was pi55 yourself funny last night tho :D

You should get the thule one cos its sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedish :D
Oh and also cos i might be able to get yo a deal

Sound S"ite 8O

Take at look at camping mer de glace about a 10 minute cycle to town off road

A superb site Basic Clean and Friendly all you need

And lets not forget it was i who came up with the Ayatollahofniche

And also is this the most pointless thead of all time :?:

Plenty of bike hire shops in Hamner when i was there didn't ride there as we didn't stop for long but being a ski resort getting some riding shouldn't be a problem
Can definately reccomend the riding down at Queenstown if your going there i expect you are.Outside sports on shotover is the best place for advice i found had a great day out around the hills of cromwell cant remember the name of the guy that took me out but they will know him top bloke.
If your into DH then there is a downhill track from the gondola in Queenstown

Surely those fire road sections are when you gat to take the pi55 out of your mates or do a lot of people miss the singletrack by riding straight past.
Although we did get a bit lost in the low cloud honest 8O

Here too YUM YUM very nice :D

No i said around 9.30 not actual 9.30 :roll:

Dave will let you know when i know somewhere around 9.30 will mail you

Jase

Hope this helps

Jase

Am sure the ride you mention sends you up a good descent !!!! Go explore

Hey :roll:

Looking good for the pads now for the Sheldon test :D

Yeah really fancy lucky to get it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You not busy today then ?

We have Air pikes steel steerer and bolt through and u turn,
Went for air spring as its far easier to tune for a Tandem and what a difference they make

Looks like we have enough tandems for a big tandem ride out :-)

I have been on them for about three years so you should be fine .But i know how hard you are whiulst swinging that wok to a standstill

Building some (Niche) Shore this weekend will probably ride that alone in a niche kind of way :D

KoS

They said the Titanic wouldn't sink and the Motor car would never take off you never know.

29ers get air too :D

Singular also do a geared Swift in a lovely candy apple but beware you might leave the scandal unloved too :D

Go on your ss then you can tell all the nay sayers what fun you had and how people pointed at you and laughed !(Although they were secretly in awe )
That they wished thewy could be like you :-)

enjoy its only i bike ride

You tell him Stu :D

Did me first ever SS ride there about 7 years ago and have always chosen the SS since then it will be fine

Oh and that lot from Stourbridge there so niche and racy 8O

Its a bit daft to go moaning that second hand stuff is too expensive you have already made your feelings known by not making a purchase.

Isn't that how any sale works if the price is right you make the sale if its too dear then it doesn't sell unless there is someone stupid enough to pay over the odds

:-)

Thats bloomin decent of you stu dont mind if i do :D

Mine too (grant,Stu) sorry the pics not all outdoorsy but i do have my custom rack mounts and hydraulic brakeset :-)

We will be there on the Tandem :D should be a good one

And yeh couldn't open the .gpx or mmo files so have had to do it the old fashioned way !

Perhaps if you need to question the 'point' of a singlespeed maybe its not for you. Everyone to there own

I can say that the friends i have made by riding silly bikes is far greater than years of other riding, and why do people need to get to the end of there ride so quick !

Why not be sociable when out with your mates.

And to all the nay sayers they have probably been dusted by a rigid singlespeed going uphill at some stage…….suck it up :D

Hey Sam am collecting up some bits for you dont worry J :D

Go to webbs of warmley see si he is a top bloke and proper old bike shop service

I have that very combo on my singular i loves it i do :D

Ice cream and beer available from the cold cold fridge :lol:

Just been to Switzerland in our T4 would never go back to a bay 80mph all the way cruise control on and the air con blowing (although i did have one of the quickest air coolers in the country)500 to a tank good times
T4's are always more expensive than bongos and transits but they always seem to hold much stronger values.

go for it
:-)

AHHH the old gang are back in town :D

At least you cant get too hung up on tyre choices with 650 bees !

(hushed tones) where is sheldon is he still up that mountain on his road bike ?
