    Still waiting on Parcel Farce to deliver some bits, otherwise I'm going to have to steal the chain off my On-one as the one on the Reign is too short, plus the chainring on the reign is too big.

  • Oh, poor you, SirHC. That must be awful, to have to keep robbing parts from all your different bikes to suit your day's riding. :lol::wink:

    not that I'm jealous, you understand?!

    Could build up another one, all I need is brakes and pedals. Which reminds me I need to clean all the bits and stick them on the classfields.

    Last week was sunny with temperatures up to 20°C.

    Yesterday started to snow, and now there is more than 1ft snow outside.
    Through out the whole winter we didn't saw this much snow.
    And it's spring today. How ironic is that? :(

    today didn't continue that here. Stiff wind & dull. Quite hard going for most of my ride, trust me to want to ride the way that goes into the wind :(

    Are you in the RAF by any chance? :P


    Jimbob - Nairn's not too far from here. I have a friend in Elgin and regulary down that direction. There's some good runs out Fochabers way? are they worth while taking the bike down next time I'm your direction?
    It's been a while...
  • Yep, how'd you guess!?

    Been to White Ash forest near Fochabers, MANY years ago, I remember it being a good ride, and the view at the top is amazing on a clear day- can see Hopeman Lighthouse and beyond!
