Saracen 853 Kili Flyer RIP

It's finally dead. One of the best frames I have ever had. 2 cracks (still rocked Afan set up as a SS with 63mm travel forks, the full sus boys did not like being overtaken.....). Now on my wall covered in lights.

RIP

I hate my commute, oh wait no I don't! it's ace.

15.5 miles each way, up to the top of the downs, straight down and then lots of little lanes. Luckily work has good showers. My SS cross bike does not make it easy either.

Tuesday Night ride now 299 miles

The regular ride was off due to man flu and other excuses. Myself and another S-Ham local went out our way above Worthing and enjoyed the empty if rather slippery trails. Awesome ride topped of with some fine ale at the Red Lion - a very bike friendly pub.

While you're at it, check out the beers this company does, yum....

Another S-Ham to B-Town stanmer ride

Another lovely ride along the STW to ride the lushness that is Stanmer. Had cmpany this time which certainly made the boring ride there much better.

Merida Brass Monkey RD3

Right well it didn't go too well. had to stop due to severe cramp. Nothing to do with salt levels as was overdsing on the gels and drink. Shame as still had so much energy, ah well another one down for experience....

Having said that full marks to the guys who put this race on. The course was excellent, not very technical just fast and very enjoyable.
