I know 3-3.5 is ambitious but you got to have something to aim for. I'll need to climb at around 12 - 15 mph and keep my average up on the flat parts then make up a lot on the decents. On the coast to coast I was nailing 11mph up garrigil on a heavy hybrid so it's not impossible to do.

Liar

I was doing 2.8 mph up Gargilmourseyes. Well, I was when I wasn't stopping every 10 yards to pop my lungs back in.

As a part of the home office we are seen as a high priority target for terrorists and other degenerates including townies. .

Ah fuck it, you can't take it with you when you're gone.

I just bought a lovely pair of these:



Mind, where do they get the RRPs from? JE James reckon it's £575

I only paid £320, and that included an extra £20 to get them in pimp white.
