Does anyone know of a stockist local to Exeter with a reaonable selection of POP rivets? and as that is a simple question to those in the know can I re post my question rudely inserted in Brian's tube thread, is it impolite to wear knobblies to Haccadon from the point of view of damage to the ground. I'll t...
There are three piles of earth across the lane at intervals,obviously dumped ready to infill deeplly eroded rutted sections of road. Unless you are riding in search of a take off ramp these may come as a nasty surprise. They will doubtless be gone before long but watch out meanwhile...
Evening all, I've been asked to create a video of my Uncle's wedding so that it can be sent to some friends and family who aren't able to attend. I've accepted and thought about how I will go about it, however, in the process, I've hit a bit of a snag. The VC I was going to use records to Mini DV and copying thos...
If after a fantastic night at Whiteway Barton this evening, anybody has got home to find they have a few things missing from their tool kit, please PM me what you've lost, and with any luck it will be what was found.

So there I was on Sunday trimming my hedge with my trusty electric hedge trimmer. Now my garden is mostly level with a steep bank at the side going down to next door. On said bank is a large viburnum which needed a bit of trim, so as I have done so many times before I leant gently over the trellis at the top to g...
Went out to Tremletts today to get a new tube for the back tyre (£16.00 fitted!) and while I was out there thought I'd stock up on consumables for the bikes as I like to have oil and filters 'in stock' as it were. Couldn't remember what oil the Husky takes so I asked John and he said Huskys take 10-60 so I took h...
OK folks, a quick thank you to the members of Devon TRF i rode with last week. Special thanks to Roger, Paul, Jim and Rob for leading the rides i was on. I still find it hard to believe how many trails there are in your county..... brilliant! As I mentioned, there is an open invite to ride the trails of North...
Saw Kev's wife Sally today. Apparently he's still got a long road to recovery and probably some more operations to repair the damage. He at home but VERY bored and would welcome phone calls or visits to break up the boredom as he's not able to do much at the moment.
After yesterday's debacle, involving a long ride and the AA, having ruined my weekend, I've decided that I no longer want to be paying money to continually fix the Urban. Don't get me wrong like, it's been a right lark owning it and it's been great for a run around the town, getting to and from work and the...
A certain chairman found the need for a new category to go along with badger,squirrel etc today whilst riding down 192- 235 this dismount involves draping yourself over a tree branch whilst stopping suddenly and allowing the bike to continue on its merry way. it was instantly christened the "a...

I thought I better pop my head in to say all is well up North (well North Somerset). Spring started with Ben (slick) visiting his mate Kevin in Bath...so it would be rude not to have a day out on the bikes- All these byways are within ten miles of the centre of Bath- [IMG]https://i273.photobucket.com/al...

I will no start thanking individual people as I will be here all day and then forget someone, so I am just going to say thanks for your support of this great event, it...
Anyone know about these people and the tech involved? http://www.nilco2technologies.co.uk/ Customers came in Sat with 2 lunch boxes by their radiator. These contained distilled water. As I understand it, the fuel cell cracks the water molecules into their hydrogen & oxygen constituent...
Evening all, Just had my broadband switched from BT to Orange, so it's been a bit of a faff getting it all sorted. Anyway, now I'm up and running, I'd like to ask if any of you have a tail bag that I could borrow for a few days. I'm due to be riding to a friend's someway East and I could do with a bit more space than...
Dave and Lorn are no longer able to help on Saturday at the special needs forest trail ride. Is there any one who is coming to help that lives near Dave as he has the Cornwall TRF banner and some helmets that are needed for Saturday. If you can help in any way please contact me. Thanks Ross 07925107740
Well the time has come ... Finally finished preparing the bike for Spain - I think! Got the 15/41 sprockets on for the road journey down through France on all the small roads I can find. Since the Devon Tour - which I really enjoyed despite the lack of the morning bacon roll - I've taken Gruffs advice and:...

Another excellent event, thanks to all who organised it & those who set it all up. I did over 30 laps (stopped counting after 20 ) with only one badger type thing. On a plus side though I tried a 'Noel' & managed several laps without putting a foot down. I also did a lap sat down all the way round, a...
