Thanks for the replies guys... kit looks good!

Link doesn't work fella, how much is the kit?

You're right, they are rad... on my Xmas list this year for sure! I don't wear overshoes so winter socks are a gogo!

Anyone seen the new The Athletic kit?

Can't get everything in the EU shop yet but it's growing everyday ;)

If this was medium, I'd be all over it like a cheap suit, think small might be a bit too small

You never know, the smallest thing can cause a problem, knees are complex things afterall... mine flared up after moving the seat up about 1cm... never again!

Could it be an Inside Line bag?

That's what I'm planning on doing... I've been waiting for Howies to make a new Slate River jacket for years which they've just done but I'm needing something a bit more fitted these days... hence why I looked at Rapha

Thanks for your words of wisdom @amey... I was looking at the Classic winter / Wind / Rain jackets but can't go wrong with someones else's views as well

Never really had a thing for Rapha until I went to their Spitalfields shop... pretty much wanted to buy their whole jacket range... as you lot are seasoned veterans, which one should I go for?

Those Stigmata's are fire!!!!!

I think that's what's happened, giving it a proper stretch out has seemed to do the trick, hopefully it'll help with the movement as well as my knee's been crap for years now... mine was a buggered when I had an arthroscopy, the surgeon had to cut out torn cartilage and suggested my ACL fix as well. One of my mates has gone through the same as me, seems like playing football at a young age isn't always the best.

Howies are good but never had a pair of cycling specific from them... Have and still wear a pair of Levis commuter jeans which are pretty good... good work on the list @Oliver Schick

I've had a pair of Levis commuter jeans for years now and there's nothing wrong with them, would buy again but only if I got them cheaper as they are a tad expensive for what they are... and no, they're definately not waterproof or stain proof

There's a section for this fella... it's not rocket science

You're right it is... even though it's a different bike altogether, my Spooky Metalhead was a 14 - 15"

I'd sell my soul to the devil for the one at the top of the page

She was a big supporter of Trump (goes without saying really) and tweeted about moving to the US if he got in... I'll quite happily go and help her pack

That's what mountain bikes were all about when I first started riding... would kill for one now.

I'll be around the area on Saturday so I might head on over there and pick something up... if they're there that is... thanks for the in depth review @Cazakstan ;)

Girlfriend had the suggestion of trying some yoga as we can do it in the flat (and do it for free via Youtube) and my knee pain has pretty much disappeared completely after a few nights. I used to stretch before and after a ride, but doing yoga stretching is a lot more controlled and has seemed to have done the trick for now. Not saying it'll be for everyone, but might be worth giving it a bash to see what happens.

Looking forward to seeing the final version... that Crema bike is gorgeous

Been meaning to go there for a while now @Cazakstan... I take it from your description it was good?

Hmmm, might not bother then, if I'm going to make an old Fashioned, I'd rather go with something a tad less expensive hence why I though Bulleit was perfect

Ouch, been there, done that!
