Chris at Rothar is currently taking place in the Cape Epic race.
You can read his updates on his website, or, if you want to keep bang up to date, via his RSS Feed.
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

Actually we‚re lying about the Maverick since some low-life stole it.
A dogs dinner of links to stuff that we have arranged in an apparently random manner, though I assure you it made sense at the time.
The things we listen to are occasionally logged on Last.fm
New! iPod updating courtesy of iScrobbler.
It doesn't update from the wheels of steel though :-)
Remember kids, vinyl can't carry Digital Rights Management.
in no particular order...
For all that we like the up-to-the minute offerings of the web there‚s nothing like a proper badly photocopied A5 fanzine or a glossily printed proper magazine to keep you occupied on the throne. Here, in no particular order, is our material of choice.
In the UK as we give away our civil liberties in the name of freedom it might be handy to be aware of Photographers Rights.
Don’t let The Man stop you shooting.
If anyone has a full set of NEMBA results (that‚s North of England for you colonial types) then please forward them.
sometimes you just gotta take action, or at least be able to get our hands on the FACTS
