Nice - I have the same bike so interested to know how the clearance is with that setup?

I find this is very good, although I would often reapply if out for extended period:

Also, would definitely recommend using an spf lip balm when out riding - did a multi day tour a few years back in France without it and can safely say I won’t be making that mistake again

I’m a big fan of the Boston 12’s and seems as though this pair on eBay may fit the bill size wise based on your previous post (not my listing btw)

i try and find the shoe in good nick on vinted first to test and and see if i get on with them, that way, if i don’t the financial hit isn’t as bad. Takes a bit of patience but the frequency that good condition trainers are uploaded is decent.

Heard someone mention this recipe on a podcast the other day - keen to try once I get my hands on some wild garlic

Seconded

Has anyone had a wax jacket altered in London?

Recently picked up a vintage Filson jacket from Vinted and want to get the sleeves made a bit shorter and narrower. Not sure if it’ll need a specialist to do so or whether any clothes alteration place could do the job….

Her prawn lasagne recipe with habanero oil is amazing

Heading over to France for the long weekend to watch Paris-Roubaix, does anyone have a route they’d recommend I could ride on the Friday to take in some of the cobble sections etc? Will be staying just outside Lille

Thanks!

Good shout thanks, just had a look at the “normal” geo comparison and it’s much closer.

Buying the Grail second hand and it’s a pretty good deal so think I’m going to take a gamble on the hover bars…

Understood - so based on the below the canyon will be over 7cm longer reach than my CAAD….seems like quite a lot

Has anyone ridden a Canyon Grail CF SL 8? When looking at the geometry compared to my current bike it seems as though the
Reach is significantly longer but I’m not sure of that is just how it’s measured accounting for the weird handlebars….

FREE - king size divan bed base with 4 drawers

Collection from Walthamstow

I’d recommend WatchHouse Tower Bridge - does amazing coffee and the food/pastries have always looked great whenever I’ve been in there

Anyone happen to have a Ribble CGR SL (large size) that they want to part ways with….?

My friend had his Orbea Orca stolen last night from bike storage in his apartments car park in Greenwich.

Appreciate it’s a long shot but if anyone happens to see it listed for sale anyway etc…

Last few days of dry January and finally sampled 0% Guinness….really is great stuff, hard to tell the difference between that and standard

Thanks @Retro_Bastard, @Sainsburys_Ed and @hats

Anyone got any recommendations for a hydration vest/pack for trail running?

I tend to get very hot when running so anything that indexes high on breathability would be a massive bonus…

Thanks @Saffronspokes and @TW

A lack of sponge fingers anywhere near my house plus my poor time planning means it not work out as a dessert tonight but will definitely use those recipes in the future!

Anyone got a good Tiramisu recipe they can share?

My guess Re: issue 1) - I think this is caused by the “hide start/finish” function on strava so rather than pinpointing your exact start/end point (e.g your house) it will choose a different start point close by for safety purposes

We didn’t try the cocktails there but the waiter at Fallow recommended we went to the upstairs bar at The Londoner hotel round the corner for a drink afterwards which I would also definitely recommend - really good Japanese take on cocktails and some amazing Yuzu Sake
