Last night I went on one of Bigfoot Bike Club's weekly nightrides. My god it was fun, however getting home and to bed for 00:45 and up and in work for 08:00 doesn't do much for the old energy levels.
Anyway meet at the shop for a 20:00 set off, normally get there for 19:30 and have a natter with BigfootMark but he's not there yet this week. 19:45 and Ian turns up, two bikes on the roof rack. I was

Well as you probably all know I am taking part in this years 24/12. I did say I would have to improve my fitness by getting out and riding more. However if I am honest I haven't been out as much as I probably should (sure BigfootMark will agree - I will say it before you do Mark). What you probably arent aware of is that I am doing the 24/12 with Mark, although he is on the reserve team because he just isn't upto the

I decided last year I really wanted to do some form of event, wasn't sure what event or anything halfway to be organised like that.

As some of you are probably aware I had a Gary Fisher Hifi Deluxe (07) on order from Evans. However there was a problem with the forks, don't ask me how they manage to damage a set of fork when transporting it from one store to the warehouse!
Anyway I just went into Evans to try and sort it all out and ended up walking out of there with a Trek Top Fuel 8 (07) for the misely sum of £1000 instead of £1600rrp

Here it is. In August I was knocked off my bike on my commute home from work, the offending driver failed to stop to exchange details. After a couple of months of no news from the Met's finest (ha) I decided to ring them only to be told they have closed the case. Not only that I learn't after asking why they said we explained in the letter. I got no letter as it turned out they sent it to the wrong address :D .&

We start this route in a lay-by on the A26 by Itford farm and Southease Railway Station. It's big enough for about 5-6 cars I would say.
Once you have got yourself ready, leave the car south and there is a track leading off the road on your left. You
