Re: 2018 Racing Plans
Main aim this year is TTs, but that said... will get back into some MTB and possibly SSRSSRRRLLLSLSLLL, Brum business park, depends on whether the road racing messes up TT plans! Interested in team events too like Brum Uni and Silverstone 9up!

Re: XC Mountain-biking
If it's proper XC racing then a good start would be Midlands XC https://midlandsxc.com/ You can pick the level of ability you think you're at and compete in it. I've done it in the past. It's bloody hard! There's also a number of mid week racing events dotted around the place but probably not BC aff...

Weights always been an odd one for me also. Until I was about 19-20 I was about 62kg, which at 5'11 is a bag of bones. Then I hit 89kg by the time I was 25 and now I struggle to get anywhere near 80. Currently 83kg even with no processed food, no ready meals, no gels, I've removed sugar and only sna...

George gave him the name, 'Flatmatt'. Well, to be precise, I dubbed him Flatt Regan. However, that was before Sunday. My view of Matt has changed entirely since Sunday. On Sunday Matt called me 'sexy'. So, from now on, I won't hear an ill word against him. What... I slapped him on the butt and he n...

Several sets of disc pads in 4000 miles? Surely longer than that... on my old commuter I never changed them in 3 years + LEJOG, and transferred to my current Boardman. They've got about 9000-10000 miles on them. Are yours made from chalk ??? Having said that... they can burn out in 20 miles on a MTB...

Bummer dude, know the feeling after years of continuously herniated discs. Ease back into it nice and slow though, find the position that you're comfortable with which might be at odds with the norm.

I had swissstop on my older commuter and running discs on the newer one. Much nicer in the rain. No lag from wet discs plus you buy one set of wheels and never wear them out and rarely change pads. The whole thing locking wheels before losing brakes I doubt really ever happens on the road for the fr...
