Hey guys new on the forum! Just a message to say i'll be practicing my trackstands down near bournemouth pier (the nice flat space where the imax used to be).

Looks like a good race! Can BAPTMBGC win again? Has Mikey learned how to ride up a hill yet? Only time will tell!

Hey, new to this thread, didn't know this much was happening in Bournemouth. If anyone see's a ridiculously oversized raw road frame around that would be me. Love to get to know other riders around so come and say hi.

Does anyone know what happened to Jason, I know he was hurt badly but I think I saw him while driving through the new Forest on a bike ... but I honestly dunno if it was him for sure.

About 5 years late, but I am curious.

He's a right knob. Managed to have no after effects even though suffering a subdural haematoma in the crash.
See him around riding fixed still can be found at Velodomestique Southbourne

4 years btw

Was he wearing a helmet?

No he is a helmet

LOL

You got? Any good?

Yes have got. Pic attached.

Basically brighter than a motorcycle light. Has a battery pack and a main charger. Well built. Should fit almost all handlebars.

Has 3 brightness modes going from "motorcyle headlight" to "night becomes day". Works well out in the New Forest, comes with head attachment. Has little green LED saying whether it is charged or not.

Probably overkill for commuting. I use it with a regular cateye usb rechargable.

The cateye is pretty decent too. It is bright, can be charged via the standard usb charger cable that most non-Apple phones have. It pretty well built and the plastic fitting thing is pretty sturdy.

Can the OP rename this to Poolemouth thread please?

No
