Park resorts Camber , 20m from beach big park ,3 pools bars ,entertainment ect .its on the uk side but its still under 2 hours from Calais – hope that helps :wink:

Blue is excellent ,couldn’t do the red as my wheel and wife gave up towards the end .Great views of Skiddaw( maybe you should hit Skiddaw cracking descent ?

Swift sport is like an elise you can carry 2 bikes and 2 people in its a gt hatch back , lots of poke and great handling with good mpg ,i have had mine for 6 years from new and nothing has ever gone wrong.Buy one and smile !

Goodwood is amazing ,i went there when i worked for Honda f1 ,Button was driving and Anthony Davidson and Lewis ,it was a mid season break had a few cold ones in Jenson’s motorhome and a bbq cooked by Jenson’s driver.

Get a suzuki Swift sport 06 onwards cracking and about 3.5k-5k

Ive had the BFe for 1 week and still have not ridden it. My staff let me down and had to work days off so after 10 days and 156 hours without a day off i have 4 days in a row .Ohh we are gonna get dusty ,so very very dusty ? roll on Saturday !

Nah Leffeboy i work for a living – i’m a chef, this is one of my new menu dishes , no good for a post ride snack though Fe%k all protien? good for the lasses though

Gonna be in Olive magazine in September as featured chef ?

Sorry Nicko , it was meant to go in the chat forum, its what i do when im not on my bike ,glad you like it ?

Crank brothers for me – i know haters are gonna hate – but for me they are the “Apple” of the biking world . Also Altura clobber .

Bfe “fiona”

Handsome bicycles in Hastings are not . they took my bike did what needed doing ,put on part supplied by me for no extra charge ,gave me great advice and when i tried to go crazy on bying new bars and stem from them they told me not to as mine were light and good enough ?? Legends those guys.

Its like a BMX limo

Ha ha , I’m sure i will get caught out just before a bail or a dab ? felt good though -lets see?

I too am carrying timber? i generally do 10 to 20 once a week off road and 20 miles road(on mtb) if i get chance. the more i do the better i feel . If i have a big ride coming up i go for a 4 hour but i take a picnic. I have no clue on fueling for a ride ? I work 70 plus hours a week so struggle to get the rides in ? i wish i could work less but the salary is great and i get plenty of Pr and newspaper /magazine articles for my field of work so i do it ?? ilove my job but having more time would be mega??

Guys Grassington house in Grassington (5 miles from Angel at Hetton) run by the old head chef from the Angel.I used to work at the Angel when i was 20-22 years old then i went to work for John(owner at Grassington house)when he opened his first place .Had my wedding there in 2010 ,cracking place, better food than Angel and nicer folk.Job done.

Go to Baan Thai in Ballsbridge opposite the national stadium. Its like Royal Thai cuisine, best my Thai wife has had in Europe she says ,go to bull island and Dollymount beach if its hot and the guiness tour -woth it even if you dont like guiness. Oh and its very expensive on grafton st area for everything be warned .

That is very very tidy. Sprocker ,i too am getting a BFe on friday as well .They look great bikes looking forward to having a blast.The soul in white is awesome .great build ,

Rusty I am from Yorkshire but ink free ,the wife has not left me ………..yet? although last weeks bike purchases tested her patience.

Not serious – but the vid is good ?

South downs Epic, well standard route for me, great weather great route. I completed it on a 1997 Cannondale “beast of the east” with rim brakes. The descents were interesting and the road cassette made the climbs a chore but the bike behaved perfectly .

Start at Brighton(Devils dyke) and ride to Eastbourne and back ,this will take in the final huge climbs figure 6 plus hours there and back .some cracking climbs and descents on this stage .Great up there at the moment really dry and fast.

Sorry the BFe is not a jump frame its a hardcore hardtail that can take abuse and jump- (you will never break this frame )i was told ? i think they are right ,im running 100mm forks and i never get more than 10″ off the ground -but its nice to know i can .

I thought i was a trail god until today when i think i was followed-I always took it as someone who was both not very good at it and only did it at the weekends but thought they were fantastic at it.

“I nailed every berm at Llandelga this weekend at record pace!”

i.e., he rode round like an old lady round the black run in 4 hours and was indeed faster than he’d ever been before.

I have just gone from a Cannondale sl4 to a Cotic BFe ,swopped over all the parts,most were upgraded any way so on Friday i pick up a killer hardtail that will love abuse? very very stiff frame -its basically a jump frame (i am 120kilo)if you are 80k+/- get a soul but for knackers like me BFe

Great course today ,fantastic in the dry – i took the Standard route as i did not train and felt the heat – managed just under 5 hours? SDW is brutal on the climbs ? Very friendly cyclist today ? Fontwell is a great start point .

Watching GP qualifying on sky plus ,dreaming of my new build that’s ready Tuesday, tapping away on STW and speed drinking before the “South Downs Epic” in the morning?

E-mail Cy at Cotic and he will answer your emails personally. I ordered a BFe on Wednesday and then changed the colour and size 30 mins later by email, he changed the order sent back an email personally and i had my frame 1pm on Friday.The guy “makes shit happen” and loves bikes as much as we do he will answer all those questions and more .

The wife wasn’t happy ? but i am surprised she was ok when i finished work ? Its a great feeling that my work mates don’t understand. You spent how much on a bike that you pedal – the wife says if i give her my i-phone its alright ? Damn i should of got the bars and stem????

Double post sorry oopps

Webber had terrible luck with his cars from 05/6/ till now, many DNF and he is a genuinely competitive guy ,but also a nice guy – shame he is going but he has had a hell of a run .

I would look at a Ford Ranger or Hilux 03 to 05. We have a ’86 L200 mitsu a fore runner to the animal on 280,000km .an 2001 Izuzu on 138,000km and a Hilux 2009 40,000km the mitsu and Izuzu are work horses , i fancy a Ranger (cheap) i never have hankered for fords except the spicy American ones and all there pick ups (not cars)i used to drive a 03 Hilux and it was very quick scary when empty .Younger Hilux are very pricy shame as they are very car like and lovely to drive .

I wish i had the time to do maintenance my self. I am a chef and i work 5 days and nights at 09am till 11pm/11:30pm so i get 2 full days off in which to have a beer ,go shopping be a husband and finally ride my bike ? when im off i just want to ride ,i guess i need to try do basic maintence and clean the bike up? or just buy decent parts that have good seals ?

Took mine for a service on Monday told £225 for service ,then they called today and said frame has a gouge near the bb chainring area and is unsafe and needs to be replaced -so i feel your pain . My wife went mad when i told her ?
