Hi all - my partner and I are going on a 3 month cycle trip starting in Japan, possibly going s.korea and/or China depending on how far we get next year.
We need to get a new tent for it and want a 3 berth and DURABLE!
What are people's views on the best tent for the job? Is a Hubba Hubba the best all rounder? Some of the big agnes tents look pretty good too!

I have two tickets to Scotland vs Fiji this Saturday and a double room at the Ten Hill Place hotel for both Friday and Saturday night, which are now going spare.

Cost us £345 all in and ideally would like to get that or near to that back but willing to take offers.

Hi there,

I have two tickets to Scotland vs Fiji this Saturday and a double room at the Ten Hill Place hotel for both Friday and Saturday night, which are now going spare.

Cost us £345 all in and ideally would like to get that or near to that back but willing to take offers.

Does anybody use or know of any open source or very low cost websites or programmes that can be used to develop bag patterns.

I’m thinking of some sort of CAD programme where you draw your pattern out and the programme will virtually sew your bag to show dimensions etc.

like pinhead oats? I have found them in Scottish supermarkets but don’t seem to be available in any main stream ones in London.
I ended up ordering bulk online

No it’s in Pimlico - I think it was on Calverton st.

I know quite a few people who have done similar things - definitely worth at least attempting if you find your stolen bike online.

I saw it on FB market place, arranged to view it. Confirmed it was indeed my stolen bike, then asked to take it for a test ride and just rode it the whole way home. Sent the guy a text to tell him I was reclaiming it and it was stolen and then blocked his number. It was all surprisingly easy.

He is 100% dodgy - This guy was selling one of my bikes on facebook market place (under diff name but had that same rossini and loads of sega stuff).
I managed to steal it back but the flat I collected it from was like a chop shop of bikes - so many it was mental. Reported it to the police but doubt they did FA.

He even had a curly hetchins...

I have a couple of telescoping roads which are pretty handy for taking away, as they pack up very small, and ideal for spot of casual fishing - trotting a worm down a river or spinning for mackerel.

Haha - indeed, a very long way! Recently moved up to Morpeth to be nearer my partner's family.

Will take some pictures and report back.

I'm doing my 1st 400 this weekend - Border Nights - https://www.audax.uk/event-details/10703-border_nights

Probably a bit of a long shot considering where it is, but wondered if anybody else is doing it?

This is either a bargain or very suss - I’ve not spoken to the seller so not sure which.

Update - spoke to the seller and he seems to know quite a bit about the bike, even down to the model of garmin his sensor is for - so think this is legit.

I'm thinking of converting my partners bike from drops to flats - it currently has 105 5800 with mechanical disc brakes.

Which flat bar levers and brakes will be compatible with the existing callipers and mechs?

Are there any other considerations I might be overlooking?

The geometry is: Seat Tube C-T 54cm / Top Tube 56.5cm / Head Tube 15.8cm

Looking to replace an old 6 speed rear wheel. Not looking for anything fancy at all - hoping this is the sort of thing somebody might have lying around in a parts bin?

Yes - I remember - they were Arkane wheels right? That's a super kind offer! Let me DM you.

Came back from dinner last night to find my bike like this.

Not sure how many in the queue but can I join the dibs for a bike repair stand (1 )?

Might be worth reaching out to this guy: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-66585713

Hi all,

I ordered these as needed some cheap 650b tyres, but wiggle has sent me 650a.

I've got a full refund now and have no need for the 650a tyres.

If anybody wants to collect them from SE15, they can have them for free.
