Badger Surprise

Says 120tpi. That's the same as psi, right?

Mostly

I expect it's just a forrin tyre.

Not tubeless, and I am not THAT much of a newbie!

You bunch of bums.

Outenger question.

Really really really really really really really etc etc etc tempted by this...... but not in London.

If i get train into Stratford international, can i get train up to chingford with bike ? this appears to be overland, unsure of train rules with complete bike around London zones. (i know central tube is a No )
Any pointers ? would be highspeed from Ashford International to Stratford, that's ok, it's from Stratford outwards i am unsure about.

Unsure about the train from Stratford International, but the train from Hackney Downs or Clapton to Chingford is fine for bikes all day on a Sunday. Either one of those would be a 3 mile ride from Stratford.

Through Victoria Park for Hackney, or along the River Lee for most of the way to Clapton.

Bit slippery up there today, after yesterday's rain.

The sarnies are good though!

Ta BigBare,

Will look into things......
Looks like i can go Central Line from Stratford up to BuckHurst Hill and chop across on road to Chingford.

Might have to strip bike down to carry on...... but i assume (dangerous i know) that being so far out this is oveland not Tube. And would be ok on a day ticket with all zones....

Having been struck off today as not fit for work i have Friday to look into tings, Saturday to swap tyres and decide if i need a bottle cage or hipflask cage. (Doctors orders, go and wind down and switch off, so your therapy :) )

Last time I checked, I think overground Central Line was fine for bikes, at off-peak & weekends.

I think you can only take bikes from Leyton outwards, which isn't much of a distance from Stratford, but might as well head to Clapton, or overland from Stratford to Hackney Central, then Hackney Downs (about a 1 minute cycle away) to Chingford.

Not something I see every day...

Bambi's mum?

I have been seeing more Deer up there recently. The big ones, as well as the Muntjac.

Train to Stratford intl then either ride up river lea or go Stratford-hackney then hackney-Chingford on the overground.

Is there a Caff (said in cockney accent) near Chingford sation ?
Looks like i can Stratford Intl up to Buckhurst on central line :)

Now do i Monk it, with disc brakes...... or SteamrollerDBAD it.
I think i may have a stab at this one, as it's a Sunday and perfect times for me for a long travel in.

Station road has cafes, Greggs, chickens, pie mash etc

Stress relief central :)

Basically zero flat whites though

Got a 22t frewheel somewhere for my last aborted attempt at Badgering, 42x18/22 on 35mm cx tyres FTW :)

Now do i Monk it, with disc brakes...... or SteamrollerDBAD it.

You need some decent mud clearance there right now.

The greengrocer does good coffee, including flat whites.

Have you changed your number pete? I was up there about 10 mins after you instagrammed, but got no reply from the text....
