any lifts for this?

[Conor]

I'll be there. Text me if you still need a lift Oisin.

[Richie]

Providing its not lashing (which, if the Met got it right, it will be), I'll be there.

[Richie]

Hmmm, the Dublin forecast is a little more optimistic 'Mostly cloudy. Rain at times. Breezier than today.'


I think I can handle that.

[Richie]

There's no way I'd be getting real dirt on my new bike, planning on bringing in some of this stuff.-

and delicately brushing it on the the wheels, maybe a bit on the back of the seatpost...think about the weight savings!


They will reduce the delivery charges if I put a big order in - any takers?

Well we got a good soaking today in Djouce. Managed 16 kms I think. Myself, Graham, Oisin Fitz, John H, and Richie braved the rain, mud, and slippery slidery roots etc. Good craic, but holy cow was it wet!!

[Richie]

Yup - despite the non-stop rain it was was a nice, zippy spin. My only gripe was the 2 pinch flats, time for me to go tubeless!
