More snow in Norwich!?

Why me?!

You have more bikes than anyone else?

Lies. All lies. Tourer, fixed, MTB, Dutch bike, Death trap and, soon, road bike.

anyone ever see n the matt berringer s&m snow bmx?

You've always got to go one better hey?

That is more bikes than anyone (I know) else.

Not that I wouldn't have that many if I had the garage space..

Would be happy with one bike that could cope with the snow.. Sure the steamroller will be fine with different tyres and a not-fucked front wheel.

Try Gav's place... That man has a bike harem.

Whatyaneed guys, it's Nitto Moustache bars and 28mm cross tyres. Enjoy while you can :-P

Yeah!!!!

Cold face though...

I have a 3 year old unused Ktrak kit still in the box and an old hard tail MTB up at the workshop ..... .... I think I'll put it together this afternoon and have a little fun when we go out sledding.

Damn, narrow slicks are good in snow because they'll cut through it like a knife and still contact the road, right?

right?

:'(

You have one of those kits? Amazing.

I'm going to get some breakfast into me then take the mountain bike to UEA or Mousehold Heath.

:)

I think you're thinking of rain.

That sounds about right, nothing wrong with multiple bikes for different occasions, or that's what I've managed to convince the wife.

Sparky,

I think me, stifler and donny are heading over to mousehold or ringland today, I'll give you a shout when we get there

That'd be good - I've just got in and warm, but sod it!

Bit of advice on this topic on Big Ring Riding.

I looked at some knobbly tyres for my shitty hybrid today (it has slicks at the moment - I fell off as soon as I stood on the pedals) and it will of course cost me £30-£40 for a set. I might as well just get a second-hand mountain bike, do you reckon?

Any suggestions or offers? If it matters then I'm about 6ft with relatively long legs, proportionally. I have to ride with a high saddle a very long way forward.

My official budget is £0 but I could be persuaded to up that a bit. Bikes I have bought myself as an "adult" cost me £50, £70, £10 and £40, respectively. Only the £40 one is still running now. But I don't want to spend much more than that anyway.

What size wheels are on your hybrid? I've got a set of mtb tires with plenty of life left in them you can have for £5.

erm, 700 x whatever? I think.

Ah, these are 26", sorry.

you have failed me for the last time.

Not really knobly but Vittoria Randonneur Trails in 700 x 32c+ should be an awesome snow tyre

Last year i was riding from the hosqpital- dereham rd. on 28c standard Randos int snow with no hassle.
