Ouch! GWS, hope it's not as bad as all that.

At least tell me you're getting free lamb chops from the blighter who had you off

same size a 34th front chain ring or bigger than your new 28th one, and you will find the combination really low.

Fingers crossed it's low enough to winch me and my camping gear over Blackstone Edge later this year, otherwise I'm in danger of being caught out exaggerating my cycling prowess amongst my work colleagues.

 

[Nigelnaturist]

@Exile you should be able to replace the 28th with a 26th front. The FD should manage 22teeth between inner and out rings
if you know you BCD, my touring crank is a 5 hole 74BCD and you can get rings for that for about £10-12 this will give you another inch or so.

@Mo1959 echo everyone else and GWS, we need you to keep us all motivated!

Sorry to hear that Mo - let's know how you get on at the hospital. No doubt you'll come back stronger than ever.

PS - is the bike OK?

 

[Mo1959]

Well, as I knew myself, collarbone broken plus a piece broken off that is floating. They are hoping it might knit. If not will need plated. Humungous large lump on my hip which has been bleeding and needed dressed. Helmet all scuffed so presume that hit the ground and did its job. Getting really sore now so going to take some co-codamol and rest for a while.
At least six to eight weeks off the bike.
