Sheffield 8.jpgLast call for Swindon - Team road.cc rideout
Our first Team road.cc rideout of 2016 is this coming Sunday (24th) at the Hargroves Cycles store in Swindon, Wiltshire.
We've got a couple of routes planned for you, one at 55km and the other is 71km with both heading to Cirencester for a well earned cake and coffee stop before looping back to Swindon for some post ride nibbles and the famous road.cc schwag handout.
Both routes are pretty flat and will be kept off of the main roads, using the lanes and taking in the scenery of the Cotswolds. We can't promise any sun though!
Hargroves will be laying on some pre-ride coffee and tea in time for the riders briefing at 9am before we set off at 9:30. The staff will also be on hand for any mechanical issues.
Sound fun? Well if you think so then click here to get your name registered and we'll see you Sunday bright and early.
The store is on an industrial estate so there is plenty of parking.
Oh yeah - it's free!!
Chichester
Can't make Swindon this weekend, well what about Chichester?
We've teamed up with the guys at Hargroves again for another rideout from their Chichester store on the 23rd February - click here to register.
Team road.cc team member Ian Upham is coming up with some routes as we write this so we'll be back with full details soon.
As part of the Tech Hub here at F-At Digital, our senior product reviewer Stu uses the knowledge gained from putting well over a 1,000 products through their paces (including hundreds of bikes) to write in-depth reviews of a huge range of kit. After first throwing his leg over a race bike back in 2000, Stu's ridden more than 160,000 miles on road, time-trial, track, and gravel bikes, and while he's put his racing days behind him he still likes to smash the pedals rather than take things easy. Although, as he spends a fair bit of his time reviewing ebikes these days he's becoming an expert in letting the motor take the strain. He's also waiting for 23mm race tyres to make a comeback!
So predictable, but helmets would be completely useless in protecting anyone from a falling tree, even a falling branch. Trees are heavy!
So glad to be able to communicate more with my axles, though I'm worried it will come at the expense of all those lovely long chats I'd been having...
Better than mirrors, how about closed-circuit TV, a minicam on the handlebar and heads-up (down?) display on the goggle lens? A rider could do the...
What is that mantra? Laterally stiff but vertically compliant? I thought Zertz was the final solution for that.
Well, failures of Campagnolo Nuovo and Super Record cranks of the '60s through the '80s are not expected but not uncommon. If you have them, look...
Did you apply some of this to that backend server issue? Seems to have done the job, the site is no longer painful to use.
"and you don't have to insert any probes"...
Resistance is useless!
I don't recall seeing anyone obey the 20 limit in Maybole, and I notice they now have a new one by the school which is ignored as well.
Not the first time he's been caught up in a robbery, his nickname superman comes from when he fought off knived assailants trying to steal his bike
