Levelled by BOB

Intervals (shush!) have revealed that I currently have more fitness than Kirsty.
So today, with a ten mile trip to the stables in the offing, things needed evening out. As we only have two properly road suitable bikes - the Lemond and the Pompino - she could have opted for gears. But, fickle thing that she […]

What Happened to Democracy?

Following on from our Beastway story further developments reach us courtesy of Singletrackworld.
It is quite clear, as reported by The Guardian that the Olympic Development Agency have done their darnedest to make the process of objecting to their post-Olympic redevelopment plans as difficult as possible.
But even so you would have thought that hand-delivering your objections […]

To The Trails!

dRj0n is looking for a bike to cover long distances and handle some trail. “purpose: covering long distances with possibility to ride rougher trails.” A typical ride might cover 60 miles 30% rolling c road, 15% singletrack, rocky rooty and minorly technical, and the remainaing 55% rail grade cinder and gravel path.
My take on […]

Serendipity Failure

iTunes serendipity fell flat on last nights intervals.
For the first few sessions it seemed fine, kicking off just as I set into the first session with Motörhead, then a nicely interlaced mix of high BPM indie dance tunes - which we are too ashamed to name but who may just have featured in more than […]

Wayback

Inspired by the recent discovery of copies of The Outcast for sale there was a brief reminisence.
It’s difficult to believe that when The Outcast was first being published there was a single page of frame-builders and singlespeed manufacturers helpful to the cause.
Using the powers of the Wayback Machine it’s possible to delve back into this […]

Ducati Corse

Cycling poseurs out there who hate having to get cold or wet could do worse than get an eyeful of the latest Ducati Corse bikes.
Perfect for the GQ reading poseur with more money than style. Which is odd really seeing as at least one of their staff is a keen singlespeeder with a filthy Cotic […]

Cash In The Attic

How It All Started
Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
One job lot of not even old Outcast fanzines up for grabs on ebay. Just 48 hours left to grab your copy, though you might be interested to know that the relevant issues are still available from Biff according to the Outcast back catalog.
Also be warned that these are mere […]

Beastway R.I.P

Thanks to Kelvin for alerting us to the fact that Beastway may never be restored as part of the legacy of the London 2012 Olympics.
Beastway has been nearly dead since racing stopped there last November to make way for Olympic site redevelopment. Previous Olympic legacy plans, including those shown to the IOC at the time […]
