I don't want to whinge, but it's going to be really nice to actually ride bikes this winter! Things should be reasonably quiet for the rest of the year - with only this next issue and one more to do before New Year. Hopefully I can get some good rides in between now and the show season starting again...
Jamie gamely spent his birthday weekend manning the Singletrack stand at the show this weekend.
I did spend the Cycle Show looking/lusting at disc brake 'cross bikes. This Kinesis looks pretty good to me. After nearly pulling my fingers off trying to hold on at the Three Peaks, I'd like a little more power - perhaps not at good old Yorkshire League races, but for big events like the Peaks (and Hit the North, which ruined a pair of rims and pads with its gritty mud) then a disc bike is looking appealing...Right, I'd best get on and finish writing the bike test!
