Also, my local micropub is very real ale focused

Cheers. £50 seems to be standard which was why I was looking at others guards but I think I'll just suck it up and get some.

Thanks, the easy fit part was kind of swaying me too. Can I ask where you got them from please? I'll need to get the 45mm ones as I'm running 34mm tyres.

I know you've just had one ride 😁 but would you recommend those guards?

I got a Contend AR recently (from Gt Yarmouth) and have been trying I work out whetjet to fit those or go for something else like bluebells.

^^ taking the hipster vibe a bit too far there I think.

I wonder if Charlie can give himself KOMs when he feels like it??

It's all about the kudos...

I have a set of Vittoria Randonneur Cross Pros in 32c if you're interested? I used them last winter and work well on gravel, dirt paths, mud etc. £15 posted.

I have some pinnacle road shoes for sale in UK 10. Nice hi-viz flouro colouring if anyone is interested? Will do a discount for local pick up :)

For sale, a pair of Pinnacle Radium Flouro road shoes size UK10/E45 with SPD-SL cleats (yellow).

I really like the flouro colour of these and dial works well but really didn't get on with SPD-SL cleats. The are some scrapes and marks as you would expect with used shoes but nothing major. £30 posted.

Stolen from the watch thread:

Still supposed to be good. The CME that triggered it was a very large one and we are currently at the peak of the cycle for aurora apparently. I'm definitely going out l looking for it!

Stepped out of front door about 10pm yesterday to go on a aurora hunt armed with multiple social media accounts running to keep up to date with sightings...only to see it above my house!

My dessert was eyeing me up this evening...

What size do you ride? I just noticed this has been posted a couple of hours ago: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/399751/#comment17533464
😁

Thanks. I'll check then out. I'll be running 34mm tyres (although clearance is up to 38mm).

Does anyone have experience of Giant speedshield-rgx mudguards? I've just got a Contend AR and these are the recommended guards to fit but reviews on line are mixed.

^ Looks like a plant based version of Beaker from the Muppets.

I'm glad someone got it! 😁

"WHY DON'T YOU GO OUTSIDE AND DO SOMETHING LESS BORING INSTEAD?"

Echoing the comments on the last days of summer. 23°c yesterday; lovely day for a ride.

@rhb I use the side of a plastic A4 folder cut to shape in my bar bag. Helps it keep a barrel shape.

Lovely! Proper prosecco gravel.

Magnets.

For those with cracked heels, O' Keeffes foot cream is excellent.

Also, Vivibarefoot have a reconditioned site at Revivo . Still pricey but less pricey than their main site.
