Hell of the North (London)

What is appropriate,? Any bike will do, i did it fixed, mate was on mtb other mate on road bike. We all won ftw

Its the tyres that make the bike appropriate... and my recommendation (for the second year running) is Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tyres... they take all the pave sections with little worry, and a puncture is basically unheard of...

Mudguards are good whatever the weather, but would be an advantage if its raining.
