Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

3 month jail sentence, suspended for two years for the actual nonce.

Jesus, I knew he was a complete weirdo but still....

That’s actually him? And got spares jail?

I'm surprised team GB didn't put out a statement about this.

lol

+1 on how ridiculously easy they are to set up tubeless. Although I did notice I need to run them at slightly lower pressures - the air tight tubeless layer seems to stiffen up the tyre carcass a fair bit.

I don't know if it's him or not. But the link @PhilDAS posted was when he was convicted, I posted the sentencing report.

I don't know either. It was just on the first page of results when I googled his name. Definitely very close in age if it isn't him

He was 55 in 2017 according to a piece about.. well, riding a bike.

I stumble upon his blog and Twitter, fucking hell…

Edited out my post then as it likely isn't him, just someone with the same name

I was halfway through sewing the GB gravel champ stripes onto my LFGSS jersey and now I’ve spotted all this

@andyp may be worth removing this altogether as this can cause problem to LFGSS in the future if god’s forbid, thr offender’s namesake caught wind of it.

Man that talks crap on the internet, gets chatted crap about on the internet.

I'm surprised team GB didn't put out a statement about this.

Haaaa

Man who tells lots of lies, possibly lying about his age to the local press? Stranger things have happened.

rode some #nogravel tonight - invariably have some spicy variant of lyme disease now. plus at one point I jumped a sty, fell over, and bruised my [redacted]. fun

whereabouts was this?

I hope that you were on a crossbike with 33mm grass optimised tires that just cut through/gripped the grass

wee cut through by snypes dam just outside neilston. I was on 38mm GKs - not convinced by these actually, having enjoyed the 32s. so squirrelly on loose stones

Ah thought it was south side. Even though it could be any hill, the rolling hill on the horizon in second photo looked kinda familiar

I was on an #arkose because if you cut me I bleed #lfgss

I was on 38mm GKs - not convinced by these actually, having enjoyed the 32s

32mm is closer to the magical #allgravel tyre width

Any wider and you require an ATB

Put some flat bars on my topstonE, much more fun to ride off road.

My daylight commute is just so good.

That is true, not thought of that.

So you built a quick neo
