My bike has developed a creak, a really annoying one. It only creaks under weight so I am thinking saddle post or spokes maybe. As I know zilch about mending these things I have asked the seller to come out if it's anything more than the saddle/ post. I read on t'internet that only...

Congratulations! Remember that as you ride with a big daft grin on your face, people who don't understand may be alarmed :D

What kind of dog is she?

She's a hopeless gundog so maybe this is her thing. She is Miss Bossy Boots though. If I call hub and son to the dinner table, she rushes up to them and barks. If the cat tries to scratch the furniture she tells him off. She would have made a terrific dog for the deaf. I haven't taken my...

Took my dog to the beach today with a tennis ball in my pocket and the ball chucker fastened on the rack. She was a bit excitable on the out when she realised where we were going but not too bad. Once on the prom, she was fantastic and loved it. Didn't go fast because it was unusually warm...

D8ve, where's the ouch button?

Hi Alan and welcome

Are you waiting for the bit where I fall off? :D

Thanks, she's not such a dope after all. Just got to make her understand that going round a parked car doesn't mean we are crossing the road, lol. Better avatar now, she wasn't keen on being mistaken for a Jack Russell - not that there's anything wrong with them. As you can see, she is a a...

Third short session went well so I thought I'd try Piper on a short jaunt along the road (quiet roads) , then the next, then the next and then the road to the fields. She was mostly brilliant and loved trotting along me instead of the slow walking stick pace she's had to endure for the last 6...

Jet is stunning and certainly more blessed in the brains department than my girl. He's worth every penny and more :)

I think using her enthusiasm is a great if slightly daunting idea! It takes a while for her to get the hang of things but when she does, she gets it completely. She is tennis ball mad but she would be lethal near the bike if she thought I might throw the ball from there. She's a very springy...

My knee makes it painful to walk much more than 200 yards yet I can cycle on Mabel for miles. I've decided today is the day to start training my slightly loopy Springer to run alongside the bike so I can get to the fields or beach more easily. I'm starting in the garden with high value treats...

When my son was 5 he was riding his bike up and down the cul de sac where we lived and he said 'Mum, I've got a great way to stop' . Before I could say a word he shoved his feet into his front wheel. Spectacular flip! Luckily his new helmet took the impact. Fractured three vertebrae landing...

Welcome. :)

Hi Dave I know that road well (old Stockport Convent High School girl :) ) and my bike is nothing special but I wouldn't hesitate to go up and down there. As the others say, try a few and buy the best you can afford that suits you because these bikes make you feel like a kid again and you just...

Hi Reeder and welcome 'Fraid I can't advise but I'm sure you'll get plenty of help on here

Ended up ok here but rained until late afternoon. Just got a ride in luckily. You're doing well Katy

I'd like a fat tire bike for the beach but it's probably not allowed under by-laws and I think I'd now like to go a lot faster than 15.5 mph! Don't know what's happening to me these days.......

I just have a pootling about ebike, not high performance or anything. We have hardly any hills. The company I bought from allows its customers to buy new batteries from them at virtually cost, £150. Agree with Gray that Halfords may not be the most helpful place to shop. If you want to share...
