ColinJ replied to the thread Fitting SKS Mudguards to CAADX 105 Disc (Picture heavy).
I think that you are probably right but I didn't want to cut more off the flap and then decide that I had shortened it too much. I like the idea of replacing it with something more flexible so I will experiment. I'll trim the flap down a few...

ColinJ replied to the thread The Annual Lunacy (aka "I Don't Do Winter") Challenge Chatzone.
That's pretty good! I really was starting to look at this as a wimpish ICAM - secretly hoping to do one imperial century a month without actually making a commitment to it. I will instead commit to NOT doing an imperial century in January, 2019...

How about the following as guideline number eight (the final one). It's framed as a reminder of the point of the challenge, following reading the other guidelines in order to encourage people to respect the spirit of the challenge, which @ColinJ...

ColinJ liked Aravis's post in the thread The Annual Lunacy (aka "I Don't Do Winter") Challenge Chatzone.
This makes total sense. Perhaps this, or something very much like it, should be put prominently in the introduction/rules/guidelines when the challenge is fully launched. I have to smile at the word "pointless". Some might say... From the very...

ColinJ liked Bazzer's post in the thread The Annual Lunacy (aka "I Don't Do Winter") Challenge Chatzone.
I currently keep my metric half century challenge rides separate from my metric century challenge rides. If the lunacy challenge ride had to be kept separate, personally this would introduce a further challenge beyond the lunacy ride itself, that...

ColinJ liked Dogtrousers's post in the thread The Annual Lunacy (aka "I Don't Do Winter") Challenge Chatzone.
As @Sea of vapours says it's entirely a personal choice. I try not to but if, for whatever reason, I only manage a single 100 miler in December I'll be counting it for both the imperial and metric challenges. Personally, if I do the lunacy thing...

ColinJ replied to the thread The Annual Lunacy (aka "I Don't Do Winter") Challenge Chatzone.
I have been having second thoughts about only counting each ride in one challenge. It would be a bit odd to be doing the metric a month plus going for imperial centuries on the Lunacy challenge, doing (say) 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105 mile...

Would that be the Stop-Brexit-happening blocker or the Talking-about-Brexit blocker? :whistle:

ColinJ liked Anf's post in the thread Arms and Upper body.
Everyone seems to think that it's best to die doing what you love. I disagree. I can't imagine anything more annoying. Imagine being half way through a nice curry that you're thoroughly enjoying. There's loads left. And boom, your gone. Or...

It's the Pugsley Special Ops, from a few years ago actually.

This is what I have been riding. [ATTACH] It's great and my daughter loves it, although clearance for that child seat is very tight.
