After yesterday mornings 50 odd miles I started getting a bit restless and ended up heading back out, despite knees like jelly ended up with one of the highest avg speeds of a ride yet. Echoing the heat sentiments in the thread, very humid today. Ended up having to take a minute to cool off...

Not the most active place in the world but a few pop up for sale every now and then. https://www.facebook.com/groups/29124394567

Wasn't me selling, was a fella on fb. Got bought by someone on here, completed and is now back up for sale. on-one inbred owners group on fb is good to keep an eye on if you're after one...

I take back my earlier complaint of 4100ft over 51 miles 🤣

@Hombre no matter the weather, conditions or what's going on in life, always better out than in. Plenty of us here always open to a chat too. Put a 70 mile route on the garmin to test out it's routing feature which was the main reason I bought it. Basically just stole someone elses route on...

^ ditto, love a drop conversion. Lovely colour too!

@wynne that redshift on the front? how you finding it? Had a ride at lunch, felt good today so put a solid effort into it, lots of sprints etc. Was a bit miffed I didn't break the 19mph average but 18.8 is still the highest I've had so far. Garmin came in the post this evening so had to give...

Hopefully seller chucked it in as a spare/forgot it's in the box and not the wheel having taken damage during shipping!

Strava's heatmap feature an also be quite useful for finding trails that are off the beaten path; it takes data from anyone with their privacy set to public and aggregates it into a heatmap with white trails showing the most common routes, light blue being somewhere in the middle and then thin...

Very surprised it was dry this morning considering around 9PM lastnight we were hit with a pretty big thunderstorm and downpour. Weekly goal on Strava is 125 miles, usually get a few short rides during the week then longer at weekend. Hit 151 yesterday, seemed only right to push for 200. Early...

4:45AM alarm got promptly snoozed, and snoozed again, and again until about 6. Was definitely still cool enough for a good ride at that time, roads pretty quiet aside from the significant amount of other cyclists with the same idea of getting out early. Barely got through 750ml today, stark...

Stronger man than I am! My route was mostly going west then returning the same way whereas the winds were going northerly so got battered by humid crosswinds for the majority of it. First 5 miles were a slow climb and went through a 750ml bottle just getting through that, second 750ml went...

Fairplay anyone who got out in todays heat! Risked it earlier, got 20 mins in and had already went through a 750ml bottle - 25c and humid headwinds are not a good combo. 4:45AM alarm for tomorrow, hopefully get some good miles in although it's meant to be 20c at 6am!

Free day, good excuse to get some good miles in. Heat, humidity and headwinds nearly ended me, definitely need to be taking two bottles out with me. First proper ride out in the Shimano XC702s too; very nice feeling shoe, big improvement over the Decathlon Triban gravel shoes I had prior. Great...

Similar scenario here, obviously not winter but whilst it has been sunny we've also been getting pretty bad winds. Went for the early ride out the door at 5am hoping to clock up a good 60/70 miles, ended up getting rained on within thirty minutes of being out then trying to compete with...

Return and buy Silca ;)

Only thing I can think of is maybe it'd been sat on a shelf for far too long and either A) went off or B) required more mixing, or perhaps a reactionresidue left on chainrings/cassette/jockeys etc, or sometimes you unfortunately just get a dud. I use a similar product from Silca and their...

Default spec seems to be 100mm Rockshox fork, suspension corrected rigid would be 445mm AC. Had the Exotic ones Joe mentioned, nice fork. White Brothers (now MRP) had the Rock Solid fork, there was a carbon Inbred fork but that may have been corrected for 80mm and not 100mm, Bontrager...

On the reverse of wynne's deep drop bars, I'd brought up to the local bike guy last time I'd seen him about wanting to change the reach on Ultegra levers due to not being able to comfortably reach from the drops. He mentioned having the same issue when he started on road bikes years back...

^ Hope to see a build thread!
