Ortlieb’s Seat Pack QR is a saddle bag that just doesn’t wobble. It mounts extremely easily via an ingenious yet simple system that clamps to your saddle rails and is compatible with both fixed or dropper seat posts. It is waterproof, has 13L of capacity and the usual Ortlieb signature air release valve.
The bag features the usual high-quality welded construction with a wide opening and easy access waterproof roll-top style closure. That air release valve then helps you roll the bag down tight by releasing any trapped air. It's easy to fit too, but we do recommend checking the handy infographic before purchasing just to check.
The EatMyRide Nutrition App is an excellent app for improving your cycling performance, in which nutrition is often the key to doing well. It’s intuitive to use and provides heaps of useful data, tips and advice. Plus it comes in free as well as paid subscription forms, so you can try it without financial commitment.
Beryl - In Search of Britain’s Greatest Athlete is a fascinating insight into one of the most dominant athletes of all time.
In a self-explanatory chapter called Just how fast was she?, Wilson goes to a wind tunnel and measures the performance of a rider using Burton's original equipment and riding position, and then compares this with the same rider using everything from the modern era.
It was not a surprise to discover that Burton would go considerably faster with today's kit, but the real benefit of the test is to predict with considerable confidence that she would still hold the women's record for every standard distance except the 10-mile time trial.
In the YouTube show, I demand the return of Tommy Voeckler and his short shorts, Jamie gives his top products for fuelling while out on the bike and we announce our product of the month.
Jo Burt has been out and about riding his bike and he has recommended a cracking route with…wait for it… a double cafe stop! Incredible scenes.
