Bits and Bob

There is so much stuff I always mean to write up here but for some reason never do. Its coming to the beginning of another cycling season here. The suns out and I rode without a coat yesterday. I realised that with another year and more cycling toys to try that I haven’t wrote up half the stuff from last year.

I haven’t yet told you about when I took three friends and my girlfriend who doesn’t cycle to France on the promise of three leisurely days of 35miles a day on beautiful flat canal paths. There faces and promises never to come again after getting to the ferry at 9pm after 180 hilly miles on day three. ( After a few days and weeks they all thought it was amazing and want to go again)

Or when I took my Surly Pacer on tour for four days in France with a route I planned that turned out to be only two days worth. Also as it was October all the campsites had decided to close. ( Im not much of a wild camper. I enjoy a shower at the end of the day)

 Or the collection of cheap parts to build Lindsay a bike that will be able to carry here around Europe for six months hopefully some day soon.

Also I haven’t reviewed the other bits or used to that matter the parts I have recently got. So soon I will write up about my new Garmin edge touring cycling GPS. Well as soon as I have worked out how to use it. The test will be on the Mad March 200k audax at the end of the month. Plus I have just received a little device from problem solvers and a new Tubus Logo rear rack

But here are a couple random photos anyway

O and I have just remembered a couple other things to write up. I donts think I have mentioned the B&M Luxos U lights I have and the two recent B&M rear lights and my own cheap hack commuter touring kona jake. So much stuff I will try and keep on top of it this year.

Thanks
