  Restrap diagonal pedal straps, good used condition with all the bits and bobs, £15. Any good?

  then the only bit to solve is the money... for which I very highly recommend OpenCollective EU.

  Time for a new thread with a (for once) serious list? Committed £10 a quarter donors. Lot of love, chat and introspection these past few days, so if there is a way forward and the stumbling block is money, time for people to put up or shut up.

  You'd have enjoyed the headwind on the way out! It is a good route, you can choose the lesser of two evils; either turn left onto Kop Hill or carry on and take on Pink Hill then follow road down the left once you reach the top. Both spit you out at the same place. Bon chance if you do manage to squeeze it in!

  That's ace and I do love cantis, but sadly I would be relieved of one of my limbs if I bought another bike :(

  Another Moderate+ day out. Harder than it looked on paper; headwind on the way out and a bit lumpy on the way back, made somewhat harder for me by my left hamstring popping with about 50 kms to go.

  Big thanks to everyone that's made it to any of the rides this year, both repeat customers and first timers. Riding around in a group (big or small) on our silly bikes is a privilege, and I know it's a significant commitment for a lot of folks to join these so thank you again, and I hope you enjoyed at least bits of it!

  All that's left is the big one, HDiJ '25! ✌🏼

  I didn't get your DM, still have that black FSA headset if you need.

  Will a decent forecast tempt anyone else out or will it just be me, @jmg412 , @WhitleyJay and possibly @Ruserius ?

  Thankfully your commitment to Hard Day in January '25 will bring this into sharp focus.
