Just got home after a great ride in Portsmouth for the DJ Memorial Ride. Unfortunately it rained the afternoon, so I think about 15 of us went for a tunnel session. Was some silly lines going on.

Received my order from CRC, 2 of 3 items in the box. Phone them up, apparently it's not often that happens and it's just one of things. So I have no seatpost for the 24 for this weekend.

Truvativ cranks fitted, clearance is tight, having to run 2 spacers on the drive side bb. Eno on rear hub, chain fitted, chain line out enough that when driving the cranks, the chain comes off the chainring away from the bike.

Anyone local got a new Odyssey Linear slic brake cable? Or anyone able to get one from Pijin Southampton for me, and I'll collect Friday evening?

Sorry Miss-Higgy, though I imagine you've had snow which I'd prefer to this rain.
-
nah just rain & 30-40mph winds :(
-
Hmmm, I think I'll just keep my rain, you're welcome to the wind :-)

Had a great day riding The Tunnel today. Shame Martin Ingram and Lee McCaw couldn't make it.
-
Why does 80% of the drivers today drive around with their fogs on day or night when it's not foggy. They are not DRL's and they all look stupid.

Handheld trap on Wellington Road, Bournemouth under Wessex Way heading towards Cemetery Junction.

Today I've learnt that muddy comps can actually be pretty good, however arm pump is never good. Was great to see so many people at Hook Woods today. Surprised to see Roberta had let Daniel Lawrence out on a Sunday.

Thanks Andy, I'm loving the Limey IV.
-
Just happened to fall into it, lol. No, it's all thanks to a few local guys (Fletcher Bumstead and Spencer Bumstead) that know the owner.

It's nothing special, just a few clips playing around indoors with the camera.

Thanks everyone. I chose the stem as I like using the threaded top cap for the forks. I'm running 5mm stacker but 10mm above stem as need to cut the forks down, but left it to find where felt best for stacker height.

I've had this since just before Christmas but not got round to posting a picture yet. Spec: Onza Limey IV frame, Trialtech forks, Onza headset, Inpulse stem 150x35 Rockman Carbon bars Squash racquet tape for grips Echo TR front disc wheel Schwalbe Fat Albert tyre, Onza pro diamond rear rim on Echo TR non disc hub Continental Der Kaiser Black Chilli tyre, Hope Trialzone 180 front disc, Rear Magura HS33 2011 brake with Phat Phluid and Coust pads, Tensile offset 4 bolt mounts, Trials Addict ISIS BB 128x68, ZHI cranks Echo SL freewheel (almost 3 years old, going strong), Trialtech Ti half bash, Wellgo MG1 pedals, KMC Z610 HX 3/32 chain, Echo ti 15th sprocket. This bike is riding so well for me. I had reservations over the high bb due to past experience when i owned a CZAR IVAN MK1, but it seems Onza have the geo spot on here. The frame has opened up possible moves for me that my Zoo restricted me on. Here's to riding better in 2013, pushing myself further and not letting fear get the better of me.
