Strava tells me I've done 4323 but I don't log miles on my commute (15 miles a day a few times a week) or on mountain bike rides with the kids. Reckon I must have done 5,000 miles this year. Not too...

Awesome. My wife also rides but tends to be sportives and climbing mountains together rather than racing (she'd beat me!).

Got my lighting sorted now and used the Brompton every day last week. I'm enjoying it but yes a bit more light and warmth would be welcomed! I had my closest ever cycling incident early on Thursday...

My latest wheels for my new bike/train/bike commute to London:

A few newbie bike commuter errors in my first week: very...

Just upgraded from a creaky 5 year old Elite turbo trainer that's done many thousands of miles to a TACX Neo smart turbo. Wow, very nice bit if kit. So quiet that it immediately made me realise that...

Very nice. If I was going carbon I think I'd like a similar look. I'm sticking with titanium for now. Here is mine this summer after a very memorable climb:...

Experienced quite a number "cheating" up Mount Ventoux a few weeks ago and zipping around the hills of Provence. Likewise loads at it up Col de L'Iseron last week and on nearby mountain bike trails...

The development that I'm finding irritating is mountain bikes equipped with batteries. The mountains are full of them this year. Just feels like cheating to me but maybe I'm too much of a purist and...

I have a compact groupset with 50/34 on the front and 11-32 on the back. For me this choice was all about range. Using this single bike and gearset I can pootle about UK roads, do sportives etc. but...

This is my preferred upper body routine...

Fun couple of weeks. Last week I cycled from Barcelona to Valencia with some lads from work. It was obviously hot and the route had some good bits but also some shockers - motorway type roads rammed...

Just read that the shortened route is confirmed. Gutted as I'll be watching live on ITV 4 !

Bike all packed up in bike box ready for flight to Barcelona from where I ride to Valencia next week, and for cycling around Provence/up Mount Ventoux the week after:...

I'm using 25mm Conti 4000s ii tyres. They are definitely good but I've picked up a few punctures as bits of flint seem to get through. Had a high speed rear blow out last week on these. Previous...

Its good to see these Dolans. Bought my wife a Dolan for Christmas as she's doing a couple of triathlons this year. Here's hers this morning after she went out for a pedal. ...

My wife's new bike. Dolan Etape with SRAM Rival 22 groupset and Mavic Aksiums. Nice first bike weighing in at about 8kgs and good Black Friday bargain:...

Not quite but Ribble have a Black Friday offer on their Evo Pro Carbon with Shimano Tiagra groupset for £599. Bought this more my wife today (well I upgraded the wheels to Mavic Aksiums and a couple...

Put some 25c tyres on for a change...

Plenty of internet reports on people having issues. However, I've done maybe 3,000 miles on mine with zero issues and they are still tight and true plus the bearings remain silky and fast. I think...

Yep! I like the very light weight of the American Classics but they are known to be a bit flexi.

They are just factory wheels. American Classic Sprint 350. Nice enough, very light (ran out of funds for anything better!).

Its a custom build titanium by Justin Burls.

I was having a few issues with punctures (like 5 in one day on a 100 mile outing) so decided it was time for new tyres for my custom built Burls. I decided to give 25c tyres a go instead of my usual...

I skipped carbon and went straight from a low end alloy to titanium. It's lightweight/fast, incredibly strong, looks amazing and so smooth its like riding on a carpet. Carbon is nice too but I felt...

With me acting as middle man Kerry (100thmonkey) sold this to my boss and cycling buddy Mike. He is delighted with it Kerry, fantastic bike.
Edit: Roubaix with Ultegra Di2, Mavic carbon rims,...
