    Ah you make bags! I'm good friends with Dave from Brisbane Outdoor Gear www.bogear.com.au he lets me go over and play on the sewing machines. We've been having a stab at reupholstering mid century chairs and the results have been pretty good.

    He is currently making custom bags for me and the other half for our travels. I know he is keen to share knowledge etc and was in correspondence with Big Top recently. He is a top bloke, "bogear" on instagram.

    Me and SJC ride regularly, you're welcome to ride with us. There's a couple of others who come out, too. No racing or 'owt just a ride out to the coast or whatever and having a laugh.

    Sounds good to me, are you in Norwich? I follow SJC on the gram, isn't he in Wymondham?

    Also, I am really looking forward to evening rides. It gets dark here between 5 and 6pm all year round.

    Thross - definitely not looking to usurp the Dandy ride. Sounds right up my alley and will definitely be along to meet some people and support it. So if there is one this Sunday then the next one will be towards the end of August right? I'll be camper vanning in Europe by then. I think realistically October will be the first one I'll be able to make, my container is due to appear mid-October but I do have a bike stashed at my parents place.

    I guess what I'm hoping for is a phone full of numbers I can spam to find someone to ride with, a bit like what I have here. The cruisy ride I mentioned previously I might organise with some old friends etc. and then throw it open.

    Just followed on i'gram also - did you sell the Cinelli or is it coming to the UK?

    ^ that's the kind of ride I'm into!

    Followed back. Cinelli sold I'm afraid, will probably regret that one. I'm bringing about 6 bikes and a couple of frames back so might have to have a cull of other stuff not long after I arrive. I presume you're tall also?

    I'd love to organise a chilled ride in the countryside, pub lunch etc. Mainly to get my better half back on a bike (meeting some people would be an added bonus). We lived in York before moving to Aus and she rode all the time. Here they properly hate cyclists and because of the climate the sweat is pouring after a couple of minutes. Suffice to say she has barely touched a bike whilst here.

    Ha, having said all this I'll probably end up being the flakiest of the lot!

    Anyone on instagram? I'm invertedcriss if anyone fancies seeing how I've been avoiding packing stuff.
