Thanks Simon.

RideLondon Essex 100 went fairly well. Felt quite strong for the first half but the second was more difficult as it went. My saddle didn't help and now I want a new saddle and a new...

Thanks. That's my plan was well. Just going to go for a ride and enjoy the day. Hopefully not too many accidents on the road either.

It'll also be my first century having only done a few metric...

That's good to know. I'll be doing the 100 this Sunday to take up my friend's place who signed up but can't make it. I'll be in the last wave so hopefully has less people who fancy themselves as...

I had the same first thought! Tax free watch purchase. Imagine.

That is really generous though. Our scheme is also limited to £1k. Even less at my previous employer.

Thanks. My employer offers the same scheme. Glad to hear that it worked out for you.

I'll have a search around the website for an LBS and contact them for recommendations. Mind you, the...

I don’t like Mike Ashley as much as the next person but I bought my current bike from Evans back before they were bought by Sports Direct. Arguably back then they were a much better company and I...

Thanks, I'm not really sure what to go for if I increase the budget. I was thinking that another advantage of rim brakes and 11-speed cassette is that it's also going to be easier to upgrade the...

I've got a serious bike itch at the moment and looking for some wisdom from the TZ hive mind.

I'm relatively new to cycling having bought my first road bike in 2018 (Evans own brand Pinnacle with...

I've got a handlebar bag for longer journeys but also thinking of getting a top tube bag for inner tube, snacks and phone. Been stuffing these in my jersey and jacket pockets.

I'm a lot more old school I guess. I don't pay for Zwift nor Strava but then I have a £500 road bike and my turbo trainer is knackered :drunk: I just go out and be miserable in the rain and/or dark....

Same here. I've only got 2 bib shorts and both are from Planet X. I've got a couple of second hand jerseys, 1 amazon and only 1 DHB bought new.
However all of them have served me well. I get some...

I also don't really bother at all these days with kit. On a shorter weekend ride I could be wearing joggers, shimano mtb shoes, jersey top (for the pockets), a high-viz rainproof jacket and mechanix...

I would suggest at least a Wahoo Elemnt Bolt or Garmin 530 as they have a base map. You can also upload routes into your device through their respective apps. Also import from Komoot. I also know...

I agree. IMO as long as you're not a competitive cyclist, the regular alloy bike and mid-range shimano sets are good enough. In fact, the additional weight will probably help you to get stronger and...

That's a pity to hear. I liked Evans before the pandemic. Bought my current bike new from them and had good service from the Canary Wharf shop. Went past it on a walk on Sunday and there was a small...

My guess is right after winter when most new cyclists realise that riding in a rainy winter night sucks.
Hopefully by then the missus would let me get a new one. Unlikely though.

A common sight here in East London, except that they're ridden by bearded hipsters or fashionable ladies. There are a couple of bike shops in the area that specialise in restoring classic road bikes....
