KCNC Jockey Wheels

With a bit of gear slippage on my cross bike I decided it was as a result of worn jockey wheels. I thought I might try and coordinate the red bike a bit further and so bought these! Beautifully machined and very nice to look at. Other colours available including a nice electric blue.... Will probably get dirty very quickly, but hey thought they looked good. www.kcnc.com.tw

Mull 2008

I uploaded some photos that David kindly provided from 2008, you might notice something strange in that there are only two people racing. That's because David and Bruce chose not to race on the second day. The use of the word "chose" is perhaps ill used given the way Saturday night went, although I don't know if Bruce would have been able to race. You see he is generally very concerned about his kit and how clean/dry it is. Please read very anal! So he went to great lengths to try and dry his cycling shoes for next day by stuffing them with newspapers and placing them on the nice wood burning stove to speed this process up. It wasn't until later when the melted plastic was bubbling on the stove that we realised his mtb shoes with their grippy soles had been transformed into a nice smooth road shoe! The one above is off us getting washed before we headed home as we had been thrown out our cottage!

Mugdock

Well it seems like Sunday was a good race but that the mud put off a few of the team..... Giancarlo had a good race, with Gordon taking the tape for the team again. Photos courtesy of Bruce Heron.

Strathpuffer

2 becomes 4, we had a pair in, now we have a quad. Old age has caught up on David and I and we have entered the Puffer as a quad now along with Giancarlo and Roddy. Don't know if anyone else is up for the challenge but the entries are filling up fast. It may be a good excuse to test a new ti 29er.....

Glenmore Cyclocross Round 4

This round is in Aviemore and a few people are going up for the weekend. There is a race on the Saturday and the Sunday. The plan at the moment is to stay up on the Saturday. I know Giancarlo and Paul are sorted for accommodation but if anyone else is coming up and wants to share can up please let me know today.

Fast & Furious!!

The racing today was fast and furious. He looks like a fighter in this and boy were the guys working hard. The course was a great combination of speed technical and a few tricky climbs testing everyone to the max. The boys went well. Looked like Gordon off the front, with Paul sucking Giancarlo's wheel until the last lap with Bruce in the mix. It was a very fast course today and looked great fun! A few supporters on the side with the Heron's myself and young Ben. Roll on next week where they are considering holding 2 races but they may put the vets off with the ladies and just run all the senior men together! Some of you may get a long lie....

Beautiful things are made to be looked at

And I thought I was bad......

Bit of a guys page and many of you may have been there already for a squint, but look as "The Tab" page and see what he has bought in the last year! Looks like he has an addiction. http://www.velodramatic.com/

Endura G3R Kit
