Having sat on the rowing machine through the British men winning the Team Pursuit Gold, setting a new world record in the process, Kirsty and I went to see the real thing last Friday at the World Track Championships in Manchester.
We didn’t miss out as one of the first things we saw on Friday evening […]
Fan
I celebrated (?) the third anniversary of the theft of Fan by putting my old Turner Burner back together.
Cross-country-tastic.
Turns out our local local bike shop are now bringing Jamis into the UK.
Another 29er singlespeed choice for the niche?
Eston, 1997
Uncle Peter captains the tandem of doom at Eston in 1997. There’s actual air under that rear wheel.
Nannerch, 1997
This was my first race on a ‘true’ singlespeed as opposed to the bodged up (chain tensioned) GT or cylco-cross bike I’d been riding until then. A borrow of “Uncle Tufty”, running a frankly silly 34:16 gearing at Nannerch in North Wales in 1997. Check out those thighs!
Karrimor always used to name their stuff after places. Fleecy stuff was named after scottish islands. Outer layers after huge Himalayan mountains where they had no doubt kitted out some expedition of proper rugged wiry men with large beards.
Their top of the range stretch goretex mountain biking jacket was named after a 1990’s north-eastern race […]
Although I’ve not lost any weight in the last six weeks I’ve knocked my BMI down to just 24.3, for my height my BMI is that of someone a full 20lbs lighter.
I am now officially ‘heavy’ rather than overweight.

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.
You know it makes sense.

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
