Currently Ranmore, From Horsely side over the top to Shere and back again

My legs hurt thinking about it.

I plan to include the Zig zag in a few weeks when I'm a bit stronger, so don't shoot me when I'm going through Headly

Wimp.

Did the Nordic24 last weekend. Ended up with an over extended rotator cuff in the left shoulder, a fractured right ulna (nightstick stylee), and two broken ribs.

Then I did 2 laps in round 5 of the HotCup this Wednesday.

I venture over to Ranmore sometimes, but no I won't shoot you if your passing through Headly!

Where is it that you go.....I do Box hill most weeks and the surrounding areas...

no, but I know I have dyslexia, as does my son, as does my father.

...not forgetting, you also have LOADSAMONEY!!

[n5gooner]

Have you ever been tested for dyslexia? seriously!

Taking the cars up the Surrey hills just isn't as enjoyable

how about pushing this gear

Big Gear

Most hub gears can't stand the torque a good rider can put out, but this one, the Rohloff , is very strong, was especially designed for those who race mountain bikes.

You can also have it placed near the bottom bracket, g-boxx ,

I left my bike behind when I left school, but Sturmey-Archer rings a bell. Were they gears?

Hub gears mounted inside the hub of the rear wheel rather than the more common exposed Derailleur type.

They are still going strong if you want more info

Very nice!
Gives me fanciful urges but no, mortgage first.

[Churchill]

I have a car, and a bicycle, and a motorcycle. And I'd really love it if someone could give me a helicopter too. Anyone?

I have a third share in an R44 if you're interested.

[timh]

They're quicker than cars if you live in London.

[Xenophon]

Off to the pub to avoid the abuse from the bike owners!

Only joking guys of course - would really fancy a nice bike now. Some decent places to go with an MTB near me now.

...but no bike, 'cos they are for schoolchildren...
