Bit of a dog's dinner

Correct. If an unlocked phone is being replaced, it'll remain unlocked regardless of any sim being put in it

Dibs SRAM

Mismatched tyres are never ok

The S-Works on the previous page is nearly ok, but one cannot unsee the angle of those hoods

Finished with 130km ending at Box Hill today. Feel battered. And a bit proud

Another brisk 60 in the rain today. Resorted to singing to myself aloud to boost morale, replacing certain 1 and 2-syllable words in popular songs with "rain" and "arsehole" respectively. I'll let your imagination do the rest.

159km to go!

Amey is the TheSadR of this thread

Strange everyone saying they're sizing up for the PT Soft Shell. I'm an M in almost everything, and after trying on the M in the store I found the arms to be really baggy and the fit to generally not be right at all.

Tried a small and it's perfect, if a little tight on the chest. It's the first 'small' item of clothing I've bought in well over 5/6 years.

FWIW I'm 6"1' and 12 (ish) stone, fairly skinny top half

Late notice I know, but I'm heading out in the morning for 80km to continue my Festive 500 escapade.

I've done a couple of rides here already but I'm not local to the area - would be lovely to have some company as I've done 281 solo KM in the last 3 days and I don't really know where I'm going!

Anyone fancy it? Leisurely pace would be an understatement. Was thinking of leaving for 8/9. If so, drop me a PM as it'll come straight through onto my phone :)

I also experienced this, with the added difficulty of a 30 ish degree cross, so I had to lean into it as well as put in 16 times more effort than usual. Was like this for the final 40km of today's ride.

Up to 280 total, would like to reach 350 by tomorrow as I'm working for 3 of the final 4 days. Really don't wanna end up doing laps of Preston Park Velodrome on NYE to hit the magic number

I've decided to head out on both days to spread the effort. No worries about giving notice, I'll be riding with or without company!

Planning on doing slightly more tomorrow, so a more gentle/shorter one on Sunday would be great. I'll DM you my number, and you can just let me know when you know

Anyone around Norwich fancy a 100/150 either tomorrow or the day after? Done 170km all on my tod so far and would like some company!!

Reflective trouser clips that were less than 1cm wide

Why

I would pass comment on some of the Norwich folk I've encountered since she moved there, but I don't wanna talk myself out of a Christmas Day bike ride companion

Is anyone around the Norwich area going to be up for something on Christmas morning?

I'm visiting my sister this year but I've never ridden those ways so I'd be hapless on my own

Theeeere we go

All average road bikes. None HH

Whole range I believe

Lol'd

Cosmics with silver spokes look killer. Don't know about that rear lacing tho

Components aren't HH worthy but paint job alone cements its place here

Anyone know when the next PTSS might arrive? Assuming that it'll release before the shadow stuff

I've dropped them an email asking about the Shadow stuff. Not getting my hopes up though...

If the Shadow jersey can match the waterproofing ability of the PTSS, I'll wait

What can people tell me about the upcoming PT Shadow stuff? I've heard mixed things about release dates, ranging from early/mid October to Christmas!

Not sure whether to hold out or just go get a PT Soft Shell...
