Just trying to make the decision to as whether I put some 180 Fox 36 on or a set of Fox 40. I know I should but I'm debating if I'll have more fun with it in 180mm mode.

Anyone rode in Cyprus before? Moving there in May, not sure to leave the bike in Scotland for when I visit home or to take it with me!

Time to buy a spitfire I think Begbie!

(and a non-potatwoe action cam so that we can see the riding out there, it looks ace!)

ps: The Jewtube video looks sped up - not that I'm saying he looks fast, just that the video's a bit odd, motions are odd.

static bike runner - worth it?

I know that halfords do one.. but basically I want one I can set up in the conservatory and pedal whilst I'm doing the job hunt.

I agree.
Spend your money on a waterproof jacket + lights instead and go outside.
