    Anybody here from dorset

    Hello Toby :) Not from Dorset, but do love the area. We come down to just outside Bridport several times a year, and I can see myself retiring there. Good cycling country! Gaz

    Hi from Brentwood

    Hello Dave :) Hybrid technology eh! I can remember trying a Velosolex round my parent's back garden in the late '70's. Weird but fun. Gaz

    Beer

    Oooh, I like a Long Blonde, or American IPA :cool: We have regular trips to Bridport in Dorset, so I like Palmers Dorset Gold. But also liked their Colmers back in the summer - light and hoppy. Pretty much anything from the Wychwood Brewery - Hobgoblin, Dr Thirsty, Black Wych. Sharpe's...

    Commuter bike

    If every 'punter' said yes, then I'm sure it could make it financially advantageous. But without everyone signing up to it, I doubt it's a model that could move forward. Certainly not for the one, in any case. Gaz

    Hello from the Black Country

    Greetings Dan :) If I'd known the grin was obligatory, I'd have done my darnedest not to. And ultimately failed :D Resistance is futile.... you will be assimilated. Have fun on your Spark! Gaz

    Hello from Frinton-On Sea

    Hello Steve :) If you're buying new, I wouldn't worry too much about a spare battery. Unless of course you need it for long distance. I get about 40 miles between charges, and I could get more if I tried harder. Second hand and it's probably pragmatic to expect battery replacement to be...

    Becoming a Serial E-Bike Owner - A Confession

    Well done Mark [stands up and applauds] and all good wishes for your continued recovery :D I myself have only two bikes, but it's easy to understand how the addiction can set in for the unwary. I get the impression D8veh is a lost cause, and clearly we must all spare a thought for him, but...

    New Legal Speed Limit: What should it be?

    With Melanie Sykes congratulating me at the end of it with a bag of chips and two pints of Boddingtons :D (At least in my perfect cycling conditions) Gaz

    The new best headlight

    Mine lasted all of about two minutes. Either my fault for not waterproofing the battery before I used it, or some twerp in China's fault for not realising they'll go pop as soon as they encounter a decent bit of rain. Gaz

    Today my Helmet has saved me a Headache

    Never thought about a snowboard helmet, but the last few mornings on my way to work have been bitter cold so I've been thinking about keeping warm. I don't tend to wear a helmet, but the idea of keeping my ears warm is quite appealing! Gaz

    New Legal Speed Limit: What should it be?

    Genuinely interested here too. I came down from Beachy Head a couple of days ago and nudged 40mph, which was way too fast for my liking, but on the other hand, there's a 1/4 mile stretch on my HTW route which is very congested with cars and vans, and if I could nudge 20mph I'd like to think I'd...

    Today my Helmet has saved me a Headache

    Not for chuckling at Gubs. Glad it wasn't more serious. I had my first slip on ice yesterday, but stayed upright. I'm thinking bubble-wrap suit for me... :oops: Gaz

    eMTB owners photo and ride thread.

    Works fine for me, but it looks more like a little grey and white 'no entry' sign to me, rather than anything more interesting! :rolleyes::D
