One of my pastimes...
Given my gears are a touch temperamental on the Wisp which results in many 'come on you bugger ... change' type comments accompanied by slipping and clicking noises - my 10 miles to the pub have averaged 12 mph. How did that happen??

Seeing as we're bike talking, is your saddle a Selle SMP? I was thinking of trying one on my road bike. I know it's a ladies saddle, but who cares! I just want a bit of comfort.

I have these on all my bikes, very comfy.

But just remember saddles are personal things what works for one person wont necessarily work for someone else.

Just waded my way through the thread to catch up.

Congratulations @Katherine.

Here's a couple from yesterday's ride. One of my favourite pastimes is indulging in a love of railways:

Llangollen

Llangollen

Yes, and Bala.

 

[Katherine]

Llangollen

It's too far for me to cycle, but we do visit the Llangollen railway at least once a year. Oggies are usually consumed. Out of the window of a train - hair, is worse than helmet - hair!

Partaking of my favourite pastime in the pub again. The shiny blurry thing in the window in the background is my bike
