Cycling plans for the weekend ?

[redvision95]

Russels or do you go elsewhere?

Halfords local to where I work. I'm not a fan of Russels honestly. I used to use that place that was on Bridge St but when they closed I started to use Halfords for the jobs I couldn't do.

Bet you're glad you don't play double bass!

If I had time to learn another instrument, it might be the double bass.

Actually, I'm a bit sneaky, and if I need gear, but want to cycle, I find someone else who is driving down and has space in their car to take stuff. My best 'tour' like that was to direct graduation music in Truro on a Monday (having driven down with the musicians on the Sunday), rode to St Ives on the Tuesday via Land's End, did a gig there in the evening (friends having brought down clothes and trumpet), and rode back to Exeter on the Wednesday (friends taking the gear back for me).

After a long while off the bike, I'm getting back into my cycling. 2 weeks ago I did 42 miles, last week 45. This Sunday it's a 50 mile route around Herts/Beds/Bucks with a few cycling buddies.

Oh, what's the route through Beds/Bucks? That's my neck of the woods.

Usual weekend toddle on the Pashley, or if I'm feeling inspired by the Giro may go for a blast on the roadie

Doing Manchester to Llandudno CC ride, then riding back to Birkenhead. Should be 150miles all in.

Yes they can be a touch pricey. I never got around to trying Bridge street cycles before they closed down

Hopefully a little Sunday 65 miles to nearby chilli farm

Hope it turns out ok for you. That challenge looks brilliant!

Done it last year its a lovely ride when its nice, torture in the wind and rain

 

[NorthernDave]

Got all morning free tomorrow so thought I'd get up early and do an Imperial half - or just maybe a metric century.

So naturally the forecast is now for rain...

Oh well, I can only get so wet...

Pricey, Never really open, Poor attitude if you take in a bike that isn't a GIANT or the likes. Had no complaints about the bridge street shop, Did great work at great prices and were always happy to give advice. I've used Wardys in Darlaston a few times but for the sake of convenience, I just go to Halfords now.

I`ll be doing my first sportive on Sunday - The Midland "Mezzo" Monster. Its a 75 miler that starts at Rosliston Forestry Centre and then heads out into the Peak District National Park. I think @cyberknight is doing it too.

I`m really looking forward to it

Yes, what time are you planning to set off ? i mentioned to a couple of mercia riders we ought to ride together including phil who`s doing it but havent heard a definitive answer .
If i feel good afterwards i hope to make my 1st imperial century.
