Just 100k to do now. Been intresting weather this time lots more snow and ice this year, its made things a lot slower.Black ice made going up hills quicker than going down,On the brakes every 50 meters really started to get to me. Average speed down to 9 Mph using CX bike with 35mm file treads.
Should finish it tonight or tomorrow morning after taking today off to go sledging with my kids.

Stylistically wrong using a MTB

9 rooms 14 bike’s

I would asume from experience your not in. Marshall spots are all filled aparently according to the e-mail I got last week.More than disappointed not to have got in this year after doing it 8 times,but hey time to let somebody else have a go.

Last week in Palma airport 12 hours in the very hot departure lounge with an 8 & 10 year old,Flight finally got cancelled so got put in a hotel with rooms that stank of sh*t. After more cancellations we finally arrived home at 5.30am Monday rather the the original predicted 7.00pm on the Sat. Still arguing with Easy Jet about all the extra costs that we ended forking out for.

Thanks apocolipto. Got him to do a bowl of soup this lunch time aprox 10% of whats needed…Doctor dident realy provide a solution.

Contador…..every time he appears on the screen steak is shouted at the TV by the whole family. Not sure why he is still alowed to ride after depriving Andy Shleck the experience of winning the Tour and all that comes with it. Realy enjoyed the tour this year,Yes Sky/ Froome look like they have won using normal Sky tactics but its been a lot closer this year so made it more intresting.

Done and it tastes like errrrr normal I am alive alive I say.

So after the nuclear holocaust just my jar of marmite and few cockroaches will be left?

Does that include Intense bikes?

LOL

Cycle jersey a+ Did a fab job for a good price and low print number’s

Had one for a year and no problems,happy with the 5 year warranty if it all goes wrong.

Patagonia Snap T top bought when I was 18 at the cost of £89 big ones (they super expensive when they first can in to the UK) was being payed £25 a week, its still going strong and it still fits 31 years later.I am sure its good for a few more years.

Apollo Blinds always been spot on for us

Probably caused by too tight a bend as it leaves the lockout, the techies at Mojo told me they’re supposed to run across and behind the fork crown

My wife’s knickers…

Just done this, don’t forget to insulate the floor and go for the same on the garage door.Ours keeps a steady 19c due to going nuts with the insulation.

Brilliant, whole family watched tonight lols all round. Now have 8 & 10 year old bugging me to get the Porsche and the Alfa, I can afford nether.

4 wives and constant drinking, I stopped trying 20 years ago. Making sure that I am always around for my kids and I am still happily married to number one Wife after 19 years. I must be very boring

Try to keep it around £100 for the hotel and we’re allowed a bottle of wine with dinner, Never been questioned about spending on dinner.It actually specifies that I can have a glass of wine with lunch in my contract!! Quickly followed with a bit about getting help if I find that I am drinking more than I should…..

Glued mine down with some brown sludge at 50 quid a tub used 5.Works well with the underfoor heating.

Managed in a Volvo V50 estate with the split rear seat same situation no problems for two weeks in Spain, Though depends on the other half’s packing regime…

36chain ring on 28 rear sprocket got round in 7hours, I use this set up all the time here in The Lakes might change the chain ring over to a 34 depending on fitness levels Have fun.

Ahh been to the meeting,…. that was fun. My understanding is that liquidator can’t get hold of him now which is about right for Ryan Stott and his Land Rovers

Thread back from the dead!! And Ryan Stott is still at it apparently. Don’t buy a Land Rover from him Check the V5 if anything is missing walk away, verify everything HPI MOT checker the lot and take a mate or pay for a RAC inspection before you part with the cash and if cant pay with a card walk away. Main dealer everytime for me.

Had ours done last year 22 degree pitch, Building control insisted on easy-slate.

due to the low pitch.
it added £2500 to the cost of the roof #nothappy

Spend money on hotels or b&b nice breakfast cooked for you and no washing up. You can do this lots with 35k.

Umm might leave the Lightning in the box, I know what the standard is and what is achievable. Bit of disparity me thinks.

Pass the mind bleach, its the fork in the wrong way that I find truly offensive.

170km to go now, out again tomorrow morning. Not been easy, Ended up spending yesterday in the dentists chair and recovering.Todays ride was cold 2c but pain free thankfully.
