Talbot Path Racer

200 miles mostly into headwind on the return leg and climbed 20.000 feet.

Still no puncture on the Four Seasons.

miles? Feet? I only do real money these days.

Wasn't rain kind of the point of the Time Machine though?

Not with mudguard that short, no.

meh. Rode in Welsh mountains yesterday, will do 2,000m climbing tomorrow. I've earned my eggs and Amstel Gold watching :)

Good.
I also rode yesterday, but today is today ;)
I didn't go for a run. I had a mini creme egg instead.
And cleaned the house because it was rank.

Fussballclub, that sounds like hell. Good work.

Went for an hours very pleasant walk with the Mrs, out past the hospital of St Cross, down five bridges, then along the Itchen by St Catherine's Hill and back past the college grounds.

I've ridden this bike around 2km, and it's put a massive smile on my face.

They let you do five laps of Herne Hill with mudguards?

I think Talbot will be making quite a few of these, it's a near perfect commuter fixed bike.

Commuter? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That's a sweet steel fixie for pounding out the winter miles.

LFGSS: Full of gear-riding hosers and fixie commuters.

And where do you fit in?

I run across the entire spectrum, shaking the rainbow-coloured unicorn wee from my hair as I do it.

^fixie whopper

What's the fork?

Kinesis DC21 I think

This is pictured in the new issue of Arrivée on page 22 as "Talbot Frameworks fixed commuter with dynamo and 'guards".

Clearly I have Arrivée'd

So it is, abet a small picture, you'd think the penguin would be in the magazine as an idea audax bike.

The Penguin will (with a few detail changes and a significantly lower price tag) appear as one of the Talbot Hand built range.

Who would have thought audax riders would appreciate a fixed bike with a dynamo and mudguards...

So Dammit how come your epic Provençal riding wasn't done on of these but some kind of carbon monstrosity beginning with 'P' (I can't bring myself to say it).

Pearson?

^^ sounds good.

I guess this is going to be a pretty indemand style of frame.

Is it planned to have the Di2 circuitry as an option as well?

Fox- the Dogma's were provided as part of the holiday, and part of the appeal was being able to hop on the plane without a single-bed sized box.

Hugo- yes, you can have cables, Di2 or the Tesla conductive paint option.

We actually need to build one very soon in order to take pictures of it for the website, should anyone want what is essentially an oversized-steel racebike with mudguards, and provision for a rack.

You're offering a free test sample. Dibs.
