This little Pompy went to Amsterdram, and despite an unwinding spoke on the rear wheel and a cocktail of Dutch rain and/or headwinds, it was ~200 miles of great riding on both sides of the channel. Braintree -> Harwich -> Hook of Holland -> Amsterdam (beers, frites ... etc ... ) then return.
Got nailed side on by a convertible Mercedes the weekend before last, which resulted in a severely crunched ankle / wheel / front rack etc. but luckily was all clear on the frame / forks. So for the trip all I did was changed up the bars from riser / extension combo to compact drops and threw on some 28c gators and a rear rack โย felt great.
