Yeah, nothing like a bit of tricky pothole dirt to keep things interesting.

@xavierdisley thanks.

@Peter_Carter I know the area pretty well but thanks for the pointers. Think we had a period of around 90 minutes yesterday seeing no one else and no cars. Was heavenly.

@xavierdisley @hippy that bad??

Looking for either of the above if anyone has anything lying around. Willing to pay and cover postage/ collect.

Thanks

Also having this problem with a Fizik at the minute. Have tried 3 other saddles and have confirmed it is indeed the actual saddle causing the problem.

@iltmimi yeah been on DC page trying to figure out what the deal is with different pedal sizes. They have a large and a small and took a while to figure out what it referred to. What about the stages crank based system? It would be easily switched over and requires little calibration I assume?

@hippy nice work and thanks for helping sort out the crazy bearded guy on the TREK. Never seen someone so happy when told they are going to be riding a 600.

Has anyone any mortgage advice? I'm looking to buy a house in Ireland for my sister to live in. Its my first buy and is simply a stop gap as she is self employed and can't get a mortgage. Once she has the ability to buy the house I will sell it back to her at whatever I have spent. Do I need to go for a buy to let mortgage and are there tax implications to consider?

Yeah lovely day for it. Some big groups out on the roads. Essex is the best riding around London for road quality. It just needs a few more big hills.

A friend is looking for a power meter he can switch between his TT bike and road bike. He likes the look of the vectors but it appears to get a consistent reading they have to be tightened correctly each time. Anyone more knowledgeable have any thoughts or opinions?

Thanks

Need a single bolt as one sheared when I tightened it up today.

Someone must have one lying in their screw box.

Looking for the above to suit a friend. Send me your considerations.

Anyone?

And I suppose a removal tool just to be on the safe side. (Thought I could DIY it but not my bike)

Does anyone have a bearing press to fit a bb92 bottom bracket they could lend me? North London preferably and could collect/drop back as I'll be out and about riding most of the day.

@Greenbank Thanks for the insight.

This is a friends setup from the 400 at the weekend. Obviously too much but he is fully loaded to train for trans am. It was his first time running the pack under the tri bars and said it was excellent although he had to adjust his sighting as he couldn't see his front wheel and said it felt weird.

Planning to hop in too if I can't get a last minute spot. Frowned upon or is there a way to pay your dues unofficially?

A friend rode it last year. Race report is here.

Its the second article if you scroll the page.

Oh I never thought of that, what an idiot.

It was 3am and the counter was closed otherwise I would have been sleeping in Mc Donalds.

@fussballclub Not me, black and white Merida with bushy legs but hello.

On the audax ride style front I prefer the ride hard between controls and break for a long time but have massive respect for the seasoned guys who can just knock out a steady pace all day with minimum stops.

Rode the Asparagus & Strawberrys 400 yesterday which was fantastic and was topped off with a 3am McD's in Colchester (which almost didn't serve me because I was using the drive through on a bike) and a hairy ride home along the A12.

Was also nice to meet Steve Abraham at the start line.
