Nothing To See Here, Move Along
“I’ve left my shoes at home!”
Inspired by the home nations success on the track at the Commonwealth Games we were on our way out for a ride. Fortunately we were still only a few miles from home filling up on diesel, and unusually, not filling up on chocolate milkshake and tangfastics.
Grizedale, when we arrived […]
Sundays ride was hard.
160bpm for over an hour into a headwind feeling tired and leaden legs. Turns out afterwards that I was doing OK speed wise.
Why does it never feel like that at the time?
I took a few photos while cycling, at least if I drop the cameraphone it’s cheaper than an SLR.
We finally had snow yesterday. So far the weather has been passing to the South of us. It was proper powder snow too, so cold that it burns while you’re making snowballs. And what snowballs. The sort that explode on impact. The local kids have rolled a huge snowball in the park, though they’ve not […]
The Pike, Rivington.
Hers - Yellow Turner Burner. Ten years old.
His. Black Turner Five Spot. One month old.
Now, we just need to get the tandem up there too :-)
As I posted a couple weeks ago my lovely wife just bought me a new TNT linkage Turner Five Spot frame from Sideways Cycles. That week we got home we rang the shop with a list of parts to get in for us - all in black or silver. This last Saturday we ambled back […]
Finally crawled off my winter lardy backside and started commuting again. It’s less than 10 minutes each way so I treat it as sprint training.
Despite having plenty of cycle lanes along the way I’ve already encountered some car drivers who seem to think that they’ll get to work faster by driving in them and holding […]

We took the tandem to Delamere on Sunday with some cheeky friends. Not that we had much chance of being cheeky on such a beast. This was the first time Kirsty had done a ride with any of the cheeky crowd since Glentress back in 2001.
Surrounded, as we were, […]
or, to those who fear acronyms, Wuthering Bikes Punk Bike Enduro 2006. Slight tautology on the ‘bike’ front there, but what the heck.
So what exactly is a Wuthering Bikes Punk Bike Enduro? Well it’s exactly what it says. Wuthering Bikes? It takes place on the moors above Haworth (of which more later), the setting for […]
By a roundabout way I was invited to the John North Xmas ride tonight - Thanks Ben :-)
I haven’t seen John since he was in the pits at Karrimor 6 last year, telling me how lucky I was to have a wife that wouldn’t let me stop, so I wasn’t going to pass on a […]
Went over to Calderdale for a ride on Sunday and spent most of the day grovelling up hills eating stem.
Considering that this was supposed to be a camera free ride at least three of the party were at the coogleplex flashing digital SLRs around. I had my handy little Fuji with me, but it struggled […]

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.

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
