    make them leave a space for me;
    whether bones, or dust,
    or ashes once among them I'll be free

    Quite a few decent discounts at Evans if you're prepared to trawl through the sale stuff.

    Just ordered one of the FWE long sleeved jerseys for 20 quid. They had some short sleeved ones for £9.

    I see Malcolm at the Cycle Clinic is doing 10% off wheels at the moment (a discount code comes up when you log on to his website).

    Yegads! What on earth is that combination above the headset?
    One of the most mismatched builds I have seen.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Did anyone who bought theirs earlier have any joy with the camera and Shimano Sport Camera app pairing up OK? I'm tempted but knowledge of the app not connecting is putting me off.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Im broke, absolutely and utterly broke, but I'm so tempted...

    Has anyone had any success in sourcing additional batteries for the cm2000 camera? Being able to double up battery life would make it very useful beyond commuting.

    Odd, still showing as 54.99 less 10% so 49.49 for me.

    Try going direct ( or cut and paste the text of the link, rather than clicking on it, which gets affiliated), or use a different browser in private mode.

    Stuff it - for the 128G capacity, which means I don't have to clear it every day, I've gone for it.
    The Cm1000 can then be bar mounted.

    Add backup front and back lights, and helmet mounted camera.
    ( a colleague has 5 rear lights....)

    Now got a 10 port USB charger at work and home... (I know, I know, dynamo lights ftw)

    Worked OK for me but did take a bit of random button pushing to get it to work. Phone is nothing special but does run Android 5.x which may (or may not) be relevant.
    There is no secret ingredient...

    Ultegra 6600 Chainset - £42.50 at Merlin. 10 speed but would surely work with 11 too.

    6600 you mean. 175mm 52/39 and 53/39 only, still, very tempting, that is my size and that design matches up nicely with standard chainrings (doesn't have the integrated nuts of the 6700 design...)

    I've been looking around to see if anywhere drops the prices a bit on eTap Disc groupsets. Just had a look on the Merlin website and they're doing 10% off anything over £250.
    It wouldn't be too bad but they've bumped the groupsets back up to full retail then offered the 10% off whereas this morning they had them with 17% or 23% off depending on whether you wanted Wi-Fli or not!!
    Even with the 10% they're still £425 dearer than CRC.

    Even more discount of sale stuff at Merlin between 5-10% off discounted items. Just looked again at the Campy Chorus UT Chainset now £90! Good prices on some Castelli kit too just bought a Puro LS jersey for £45!
