One year today! Crikey where’s the time gone?
1024.06 mikes on the Brompton, 3 Tours, 4 countries, lots of commutes, and many leisure rides.
A few additions, carry handle which is utterly brilliant, a Quadlock, a Brompton backpack bag, a
Decathlon bottle holder and a brown Brooks leather saddle.
I’ve hardly ridden my other bikes, (less than 500 miles on them) , the Brompton is such a versatile bit of kit. I mostly keep it in the car, and often park away from my destination, and cycle the rest of the way.
It has some battle scars, from being thrown around and used, which irked me at first, but I’m done with that now, it’s a tool, I can’t keep fussing over each little knock.
I’ve had some challenges with it, derailleur adjustments and irritating rattles but that’s all sorted now.
Some photos from this years shenanigans.
Chain came off!
