Dammit’s adventures in mountain biking

Ok, I’ll order one. If anyone knows of the cheapest place to so do please speak up!

If there is room for one more and it's a date that works for me, I'd be interested in tagging along and hiring a bike.

I shudder to think what this is going to do to my fuel economy, but there you go.

Thus sharing fuel cost.

Let's find out this coming Sunday

can I put a permanent D lock on one?

The individual racks are actually very easy to slide on and off the rails, I discovered whilst mounting the new one. Can experiment. This coming Sunday sounds good, unless it pisses down.

Ya good. What's this breakfast place in Putney then?

Now that's going to be a challenge - it's Artisan Bakehouse, Putney, and it's open from 8am Saturday, but on Sunday it's from 10am. Are you only available on Sunday?

Grind is a nice coffee shop though I haven’t eaten there. It’s open early.
It’s where all the RCC boys go after a ride

The reason I like Artisan is a) the breakfast is very good and b) I can park just over the road from it.

If I can park in front of Grind, and it has ALL THE BACON, then that's fine.

It’s on a corner, you can’t park on lower Richmond road but in Weiss road it’s permit holders only mon-sat I think.
Don’t know about bacon though :)
Social Brew is an aussie cafe across the road which isn’t cheap but they have a garden out back where you can take your bikes through to and store safely while you eat.

Yeah Saturday is baby swim class day.

You must be nearly in toddler classes by now

Ok, well - I'm going to delegate cafe selection to you lot, pick one that will be open early on Sunday and we'll meet there.

I've not been, but this place has always looked good- and shouldn't be a problem to park near. Open 7:30am Sundays

Think you get 10% off if you’re wearing Lycra at Dynamo

When I told my tailor that I needed an outfit for shredding the gnar he didn’t mention lycra?

How do you mount bolt through 29r on dem? 561 Outriders.

The QR clamping mechanism slides out completely after slackening two hex bolts, then you slide a sleeve in that leaves either a 20mm or 15mm diameter cylinder, through which you slide the bolt-thru axle. After tightening up the hex bolts again. Takes a few minutes.

Is this thing happening on Sunday? Weather looks good for it, if a bit cold.

Yep, just looking at booking a hire bike for the Mrs. Not convinced that we've nailed the full English breakfast vendor aspect, however.
