    I'm bent!

    After a few km my initial thoughts: 1. Different muscles - the muscles you use on a bent just happen to be the ones you use rowing sliding seat boats. Happy days! I haven't been in a skiff for a while but those muscles have been hard worked over the years and didn't take long to get back to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Weren't there some kind of uprisings? Apparently history is no longer taught in the UK... Yes you got rich by rape and pillage as did France, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands... The wealth of the USA is based on slavery and lots of chucking of bombs and economic sanctions against people who...

    500w BPM kit from BMS Battery

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Intersport manage to have French workers fit a Chinese kit to a French made frame and sell it for that price or near (the pound isn't what it was...). Decathlon has their Chinese kits (Bafang) mounted in Hungary or Bulgaria or wherever. Lots of European workers getting paid for mounting Chinese...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    When you have finished calling each other names... The UK has decided to leave the EU. The world is watching. My question if I was Japanese or Chinese would be "is the UK a trustworthy trading partner?"... My personal vote would be "no" going by how you are carrying on at the moment. No trust...

Put a spacer behind the 34, say one of those spoke protectors, then turn the adjuster screw till it...

    New bike

    There is a difference but would that be a problem? You need to be in the right gear and cadence is more important. I am about to have both crank and hub at my disposal but in two completely different machines. I have a tendency to use the gears on hub bikes as well which probably explains the...
